Jared was great at listening to what I had to say even though I wasn't entire sure what I needed. I'm excited to work with him to find some of the answers. he left me with good food for thought before our next meeting.
It was a great session. I learned a lot. Thank you.
He is amazing! I have never had counseling/therapy before so it is very uncomfortable. However, he has made this a wonderful experience. He is no nonsense and gets to the point. I really appreciate him.

Great so far. I appreciate Jared's point of view and he is what I was looking for just someone with life experience and non judgmental.
