"I saw Brendan over the course of about 4 years. I saw a number of therapists prior to Brendan, but there was a stark difference that I felt once I started therapy with Brendan. There was a level of compassion and understanding coupled with strategy and guidance which led to great results for me. I learned how to accept parts of me that I did not before. Brendan truly cared about my wellbeing, and we developed a connection that is one of a kind.”
“I was lucky to have sessions with Brendan over several months - both in person and later online. Brendan is patient, practical, experienced and kind. I learnt so much in those sessions about accepting my imperfections and trusting others would too. The sessions were key to me making a bunch of changes that have opened up a whole new life to me, and I couldn't be more grateful!”
“We saw Brendan for 10 sessions of couples counseling during our engagement to set up our marriage for success. Brendan was an empathetic listener who skillfully balanced both sides, always knowing when to listen and how to navigate sensitive, difficult topics in a way that helped us both feel understood. He provided insightful comments and practical suggestions on daily changes we should make, which we continue to apply in our relationship to this day. The counseling sessions brought us closer together, and we highly recommend Brendan to other couples!”
“We came to Brendan at a real tipping point in our relationship after 13 years together—couples therapy was honestly our last-ditch effort. From the start, Brendan created a safe, judgment-free space. He helped us learn how to actually communicate, slow down, and understand each other's perspective with compassion instead of defensiveness. Because of that, we were able to reconnect and have become closer than we've ever been. Those conflicts that once felt insurmountable no longer feel so heavy or life-altering. We finally have the tools to navigate through them together. Working with Brendan changed the way we show up for each other and helped us rebuild our relationship with a deeper sense of understanding, empathy, and care.”
“I worked with Brendan during a particularly hard, confusing time in my life. Not only did he help me through this. With patience and grace dash he also provided a deeper understanding of where these patterns were coming from, connecting to early life and family context. For me Brendan was the perfect mix of action and theory matched with his deep personal experience of growth and development. I also appreciated Brendan's gentle but firm guidance to move forward and take action in life- instead of endless intellectualization The experience was empowering as much as it was enlightening. For someone who tends to get stuck easily, Brendan's approach was a game changer, and I can't recommend him enough!”
“I'd always struggled to connect with therapists-it usually felt awkward or too formal, and I'd leave sessions feeling more frustrated than helped. But working with Brendan was a different experience period from the start, he made it easy to open up. He has a calm, grounded personality that makes conversations feel natural and not like you're being analyzed. He listens in a way that makes you feel genuinely understood, and he's great at helping you get to the root of things without ever pushing too hard. For the first time and unexpectedly, I looked forward to therapy and felt like I was making progress.”
“Working with Brendan has been transformative. From our first session, he created a safe space where I felt truly seen and understood His approach balances deep empathy with practical guidance- He helped me identify underlying causes of my struggles while offering concrete tools I could use daily. What stands out most is his ability to listen deeply and help me recognize my own strengths and resilience The skills and perspectives I developed continue to benefit me every day, and I feel more confident and equipped to face life's challenges. I would wholeheartedly recommend Brendan to anyone seeking a therapist who is skilled, compassionate and genuinely committed to supporting their clients’ wellbeing.”
“I reached out to Brendan during one of the most challenging times in my life. I had been feeling low for a while and struggled to understand why or see any light at the end of the tunnel. During our first session, I opened up about my life and where I was at that moment. From there, Brendan guided me in developing a plan to take things one step at a time and tackle each obstacle as it came. Reaching out for help wasn’t easy, but Brendan truly delivered. I would strongly recommend his services to anyone seeking guidance and support.”
