Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Coleman Thompson. 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.
My daughter has been having weekly therapy sessions with Coleman for about a year now and we have seen that she is benefitting from it as we have found that she is more positive and proactive in her approach to issues of concern.
Great listener, good feedback, supportive and genuine.
He's the best
Coleman is a good listener and offers non judgemental, constructive advice.
Excellent therapist. Easy to talk to, insightful and knowledgeable
I’m very early days in with Coleman but the help I’ve received so far, especially with the on the spot situations, has been fantastic. He always responds quickly whenever I’ve needed him and really remembers key points from our previous sessions.
He’s great and welcoming.
Not stoic or robotic like I expected.
He has made this experience worthwhile.
He is great! He is clearly experienced and knows how to make you feel like you matter.
I may have only had 1 live session so far, he seems very attentive and seems to understand how to help me.
Coleman creates a safe space where you can fully express yourself and work on core issues that matter to you.
Having a friendly person to talk to, open up and share the very innermost issues and then see all of that fall onto a ground of acceptance, appreciation and honest wishes to help and support… that makes a good therapist in my opinion.
Coleman Thompson is all that. I cannot talk about expertise, since I am not in his field, but I can tell he is the best meaning person you could wish for. For me, it helps a lot that I can just talk and share everything, in all the detail I can give at the moment or none at all - all is good an okay. And that is really helpful.
Amazing therapist! Very professional but not "robotic" i guess as some therapists/counselors can be. Truly knows what to say to help me through issues im having and listens well. :)
Great therapist!
It’s good to talk to your friends and family but it feels amazing to talk to someone who is specialist, thank you.
While he is certainly a helpful therapist most of the time, after a few sessions he gradually got more and more distracted. Last time I am pretty sure I noticed him do other stuff on his computer while having our session... Even if part of it is definitely ADHD, it still feels bad for a patient to have their therapist be distracted during their session...
Coleman makes me feel understood, is extremely supportive and offers me a variety of ways and options to work through my struggles together. Can absolutely recommend him!
Coleman is a warm and kind therapist. He provides reasonable solutions to assist with any issues you may have.
After just one session I have seen improvements with my son.
Coleman has been very helpful with my current relationship conflicts. He’s vary approachable and calm. Very much like your just talking with a friend
Coleman is very attentive to my needs and provides many options to help with my path moving forward. Very easy to speak to and look forward to working together ongoing!
Attentive. Willing to listen to what bothers you, and help you work through them.
A good first four weeks . Really appreciate the conversations together via video conferencing.. looking forward to the continued support to help improve my relationship further .
Coleman is fantastic at looking for the root of your issues rather than bandaging wounds that have been there for awhile. He listens and gives great insight to what he sees going on in your life. He is also readily available and will check in on you between sessions.
Relaxed and insightful. Coleman worked well with my situation and was able to adapt our sessions extremely well as things progressed. I would highly recommend him.
My therapist is a cool laid back type of person and I love the fact that he doesn't give out advices he will speak from the heart and what he knows.
