Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Exceptional therapist
Telehealth
Christopher was an exceptional therapist who genuinely transformed my life. His warm, compassionate presence made it easy to open up, while his insightful approach guided me toward meaningful self-discovery. Christopher consistently provided practical tools to manage anxiety and encouraged personal growth at every step. His ability to listen without judgment created a space where I felt truly understood. I'm deeply grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone seeking real, positive change.

Christopher is one of the best therapist’s I’ve ever had. He really listened to me and cared for me during our time together. I had to move away and it was very sad for me. This guy is the best.

Christopher is a diamond in the rough. He is a true professional that I have had the pleasure of working with and getting to know. His knowledge of treatment modalities and psychological theories stunned me when he gave a speech to clinicians at our board meeting. You are blessed if you get this guy as your therapist.
