I cannot say
enough positive things about John. At 1st the thought of talking to
someone about deep underlying issues/ concerns about my everyday life
was hard. I’m not one to open up. But John got me to open up and
talk about things and because of him I am a better person, friend,
wife and mother. He gives me the tools to be a better version of
myself everyday. He believes in me and actually makes me want to do
the work. He doesn’t judge you but makes you realize the things
that are truly going on and work through them to come out better then
you went in. Thanks John for all that you have done for me..

John is one of
the best counselors I have had. I’ve been through numerous
counselors with the VA who only focus on me talking about how I feel
and no guidance on how to handle those feelings. I’m so glad I was
outsourced and placed with John. He works with me to help me find
constructive ways to cope with what I am going through. He helps me
set realistic goals for myself and supports me when I’m having a
really rough time. He is flexible with scheduling and genuinely
cares. It is hard to find someone like him. I highly recommend!
Chelsey Triplett
John has been my
therapist for about 6 months, and the basic tools he's given me has
helped me to be a more functional and happier human being. My traumas
no longer completely rule my life as they had for almost 20 years.
I'll give an example. I was borderline agoraphobic for almost 7
years. When I had no choice but to leave, I would get stuck in a
pattern of obsessively checking everything 10+ times and get so
anxious that I would make myself physically ill. After 6 months, not
only can I leave the house, but do it with only mild anxiety and only
check everything once and just go. This means I can do things I
enjoy. I still have a lot of work to do, but I know he will help get
me through the next goals and the bumps in the road that make me want
to give up.
Yes, he is blunt and will tell you what you need to hear, that is part of what you are paying him to do. But he has never been unkind or treated me with anything less than empathy and respect. He can also be really funny, which helps during the hardest parts. He also explains why our minds process traumas the way they do, and how the tools work to retrain your brain.
As far as cancellations, well yeah. He has a business to run and the time that you canceled could've been used to help another patient. It's disrespectful. But, if something serious comes up and you have to cancel very rarely, he is cool about it.
As long as you do the work, it is life changing. It's not easy, but if you stick to it, it will change your life. I highly recommend him to anyone, we all need help sometimes.

Gary Strawderman
John is the best
counselor Ive ever had. He’s straight to the point never tells you
what you wanna hear but rather what you need to hear. He’s very
knowledgeable in his field and really has encouraged and motivated me
to build and sustain confidence to be able to cope with my personal
struggles. Highly recommend!

I am currently
using this service and I can truly say that the time that I spend
here has helped me to not only understand myself more but to be a
better man a better husband and a better step father to my children.

advice please use this it really makes a difference.

I’ve been receiving therapy from John for about 5 months and he has completely changed my life, for the greater. He has taught me tools that I think every human should know. Therapy is for EVERYONE and John is good at what he does! Highly recommend. He works with every individual to what their needs are in their life. I will forever be grateful.
