Hear what fellow clinicians say about working with us

Max is an incredibly thoughtful, empathetic, and knowledgeable therapist. From the moment you talk with him, it’s clear how intentional he is about creating a space where people feel comfortable, understood, and supported. He has a genuine ability to meet people where they are and help them feel at ease being themselves. Max is my go-to person when it comes to ASD, ADHD, or navigating general life stressors, both professionally and personally. I regularly recommend Max to others because I trust his insight, compassion, and the care he brings to his work.

Hannah Sharp, LMSW

Clinical Therapist and Founder, Refuge Counseling Center

I’ve had the honor of seeing the skillset Max brings to his work through a down-to-earth and genuinely relatable approach with all clients but specifically those with ASD and ADHD. He is deeply intentional about creating a safe, supportive space where people feel comfortable exploring their emotions and investing in themselves. With his niche for working with men specifically, Max is attuned to the specific barriers society has placed in front of them, making vulnerability extremely uncomfortable. He takes the therapeutic relationship seriously, and it shows in the trust he builds and resilience his clients develop through their work with him. I highly recommend Max.

Ashly Alghamdi, LMSW

Clincial Therapist and Founder, Still Mind Therapy

Max is an outstanding therapist, especially for men who feel unsure about starting therapy for the first time and couples looking for a Gottman trained provider. He specializes in men's mental health, neurodivergence, and helping clients navigate purpose, motivation, and emotional regulation. He's trained in DBT, ACT, and EMDR, and brings a warm, structured approach and a great welcoming energy, which is rare and so valuable for male clients. I highly recommend him!

Ciara Braun, MA LPC NCC CST

Clinical Therapist and Founder, Affinity Counseling Group

Max is a competent, knowledgeable, and caring clinician. I would recommend him to anyone, but especially if you are a man, someone dealing with anxiety or autism. His passion for helping others makes him a wonderful therapist.
