Mark is great! He is always full of enthusiasm and a positive attitude. Empathising with clients could be exhausting, but he was really sincere and warm the whole time. He made me feel very relaxed, like a smart friend who had my back. Of course, not all of the therapy provided would work on me, but he could make adjustments and provide better ideas based on my feedback. I believe, in his company, I will be better!
