Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Frank Gorritz. 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.

Dr. Gorritz is amazing and supportive and I love our sessions.

Dr. G is the best. In each session I feel heard, seen, validated, and appropriately challenged. The range of expertise Dr. G holds is comprehensive. That was important to me, as I have LGBTQIA+ needs, religious trauma, ADHD, grief, work stress, and addiction awareness concerns. Dr. G can do it all. I have tried several therapists in the past and struggled to connect, but I finally found the right one with him. He doesn’t judge any of my beliefs, yet also isn’t afraid to challenge my stances. It’s exactly what I wanted and needed in a counselor.

He is always there for me when I need it, even if it’s not our usual time. His experiences and empathy make him feel very real and he doesn’t kid around with the usual scripted lines you hear TV/movie therapists say. He’ll tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear.

Dr. G is patient and kind. I feel like he's a good friend rather than a therapist.

Dr. Gorritz has essentially saved my life. He's gotten me through the hardest situation I've ever been in. I'm eternally grateful. I'd recommend him to anyone and look forward to continued development.

Dr. Gorritz is a great therapist so far. I have had only 2 sessions with him and he has been the most empathetic and accepting person I have met. He knows when the mood does not have to be so glum while also being respectful towards my viewpoint.

He genuinely cares about me and he actively listens to me.

He checks on my daughter and I almost daily. I thought we would only communicate once a week but I definitely believe this helps. My daughter hasn't had any outburst since we started with Dr Gorritz.
