Vincent really understands how I am feeling and shows me that I am not alone with how I feel. Even his worksheets he gives are helpful as well

I went to Vincent for therapy, discussing a variety of personal and relationship issues, for many months. I always felt respected, his advice was generally helpful, and I’d recommend him to a friend.

Written on Nov 06, 2023 after therapy with Vincent for 1 year and 10 months on issues concerning depression, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, and self esteem
Vinny has helped me get past a difficult time in my life. He wants the best for you and will make you think things through in a different way so you’re able to process your thoughts and emotions better. He will even share a story of his own to relate if he can so you know you’re not alone and even crack a few jokes here and there. I had to quit my job because of my mental health and with the help of Vinny I have been able to land a new one and am very happy with the person I am becoming more and more everyday. I would recommend Vinny to anyone who is considering because I know if I ever need to resume my sessions I will be going right back to Vinny.
