Otis has an exceptional ability to pick up on subtle details that often go unnoticed, bringing clarity to things I hadn’t fully articulated myself. He thoughtfully shines a light on personal blind spots in a way that feels constructive rather than critical. What sets him apart is how naturally he incorporates scripture into his guidance, reinforcing each insight with deeper meaning and purpose. His approach creates a strong sense of alignment between practical advice and spiritual growth.

I think he is very knowledgable and has a lot of experience in his profession. The things he says make a lot of sense to me . Other people have said the same things but its different if he says it.Having had little success with multiple therapists in the past, I thought this time would be as Frustrating but it is not. I feel like he will be very helpful and not evil. People have also become nicer to me since i started talking to him and it is easier to talk to people without feeling like they secretely hate me n i only talked once. He is awesome.

Otis is a person who has been welcoming and understanding towards me. There is an art to being graceful while also being honest and challenging another's beliefs. I felt heard by him. He offered me a sober perspective on what I was going through and helped me bridge the gap between that and how I seen things myself.

Otis is everything I could have wished for in a therapist. As this is my first time speaking with a therapist, I didn't know what to expect and I initially felt some hesitation. But in our first session, Otis immediately helped to put me at ease. He rather quickly became someone I look forward to speaking with. His natural ability to ease any pre-existing tension and provide professional guidance with actionable steps to become a better me is valued highly. I look forward to continuing my sessions with Mr Carey.

Otis has taken the upmost care and consideration when discussing or addressing any issues. In just a few sessions, he has challenged my beliefs in a positive and professional way. The conversation flows in a progressive manner, which allows me to leave the session feeling as though I’ve been productive regarding the reasoning behind starting therapy in the first place!
