Wayne is an absolute gem. Since beginning with him 2 months ago my life has taken a complete turn for the better. My self confidence, mental and physical health and overall life has become a beautiful adventure. I’ve recommended his care to several close friends and would recommend him to anyone who is seeking therapy. Wayne will likely be invited to my wedding!
