Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Christopher Standish. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Christopher has met my son where he's at, he is kind , understanding, relatable and fun. He worked with my son to get to know him first, they talk about music a lot, within that he's been able to reach him and help through his struggles.
