Im writing this after my second session with Steven. So far things are go well and i am hopeful that everything stays consistent. Steven is friendly and non judgmental
Steven is a great counselor, he accompanied me in the hardest time in my life. I set the intentions in my sessions and he listened to my preferences and accommodated the structure of the sessions to my liking. I really recommend Steven he really will make you feel comfortable opening up and be vulnerable. He is gentle but he will hold you accountable and point out the behaviors that need some work and redirecting you to better habits which was my problem too. Overall Steven is great and he is a great listener and is not judgmental. I am very grateful I got to have Steven as my counselor to listen and guide me when I needed it the most.
