About me

Thanks for you. What do you need? from any part of your life?
My name is John Gosling and I have been privileged to serve teen clients going back to when I started working in the 1980s. No I am not out of touch, because our daughters aged 26 and 29 have stayed in my life (face) and I am very proud of who they are becoming. I will always be proud of you and will make effort to not only convince you that you DO matter but also that adults DO care. I have worked in Schools, a Career Center and have seen Teens in a Mental Health service center. I have partnered with them following a suicide attempt and worked with them to understand and offer hope as it concerns sibling life.
Listening, Accepting, Understanding and Assistance are hallmarks of the service I will offer you.

You DO matter and I would love to become aware and sensitive to you. Thank you for learning more about me.

Written on Dec 15, 2022 after therapy with John for 2 weeks

John has been great to work with. My son was reticent to the idea of counseling to help with some issues with friends at school and by the second session was seeing results in his mindset. He was even willing to have more sessions because I think he quickly saw the value in talking to someone trained to help. Highly recommend!

I chose John amidst other counselors after getting the impression that he genuinely enjoys his work. With other counselors in the past, I have felt burdensome (and am admittedly very sensitive to that feeling). I haven't felt that way with John whatsoever and appreciate his solution-based approach and honesty. He's very easy to talk to and I always leave our sessions feeling energized and supported.
