Mario is always amazing. I would recommend him 10 out of 10 times! He listens, cares, and celebrates your wins. I came to therapy out of desperation and not because I believed in it. He has completely changed my view on this topic.

Finding Mario has turned out to be one of the best things to happen for me in this stage of my life. He has helped me transition through becoming pregnant, preparing to be a mother, settling old resentment and pushing through the difficult memories that followed me. He has helped me learn how to process through my challenges, allowing me to come back to my emotional hurdles as many times as I needed. In doing this, I could conquer them and truly move past them for the first time in my life. He has helped me be a better mother, partner, daughter and friend, (not only to others but myself as well).
At the end of the day, therapy can be an emotional and extremely personal journey. I can’t imagine going through that gracefully with anyone else, he’s truly one of a kind and I can’t recommend him enough.

Mario is highly skilled. He is the best therapist I have ever had because our work progresses. He is able to follow and understand what I am feeling and doing, then share insights, and set up goals to move me along. He also makes me feel like I’m never alone, that what I’m going through is not beyond what anybody else has gone through, and we will work together to move me into a healthier mindset.

Mario is a compassionate person and great listener; he also offers great educative perspectives on what you're going through while being empathetic and understanding for the whole session. My only complaint would be that the sessions feel too short! :)

Mario is wonderful. I have worked with therapists in the past and mostly been frustrated by their lack of help. I wanted a short-term course correction for myself, not an endless engagement with a therapist. Mario sat with me in the initial consultation and said, "I think we can handle this in about six sessions." He was right! He is very kind, and listens well, but will also give you as much pushback as you can handle. He'll challenge your thinking and even give you homework. This was everything I've ever looked for in a therapist and will be looking for him again next time I feel the need!

Mario is fantastic. From day 1, he’s never made me feel like I had to pretend or hide things. I’ve had some not so great experiences with therapy in my past but Mario makes me want to tell everyone that they just need the right person to listen and then it’s fantastic.

I’m going to start this by saying I’ve only had 1 session with Mario. Some people my see that as not knowing the therapist long enough to write a review. But the reason why I think it’s important to note, is because after one single session. I knew he was a good match for me. He’s personable, he responds at a reasonable time. He really tries to understand the struggles you carry and help you with them. It was hard for me to get into therapy. Because I was raised from a boy to not show signs of weakness. And therapy to me was just another sign of weakness. Like it’s admitting defeat. But it wasn’t. I met with a couple other therapists and I didn’t hit it off with them. But Mario was different and I appreciate that. I feel like I can crack a joke with him, just as much as I can talk about deep things that are on my mind. He’s not just a therapist he’s a great guy. And I look forward to working to a better mental state with him helping me along the way.
