Dr. Tillman goes above and beyond to understand his clients. He listens and provides sound decisions that lead to success in my life and for those around me. I would recommend him for any struggle you might have.

Dr. Tilman feels like the therapist I’ve always been looking for. He holds me accountable through kindness and encouragement. He recenters me to be focused in the now. As someone who suffers from anxiety and bouts of depression when I’m going through a big life change this has been profoundly helpful in how I approach these feelings and deal with them in the moment.

Joseph has been an extremely easy person to speak with. Being that this is my first therapist I didn’t know what to expect but just went with the flow of the conversations. Have led into some detailed parts of my life past and current. And have always felt b comfortable with what I did and didn’t feel like sharing. He is very good at making you feel as if you’re speaking to a friend. Great experience with Joseph.

Joseph has done an excellent job challenging to face my struggles and to to focus on the importance of being in the now, and to focus on bettering myself. I couldn't ask for a more capable man to help me through my trauma

I like the fact that I have the opportunity to do business with a therapist that has been in the business for as long as he has. I know he’s versed and knowledgeable in all different areas and I feel totally comfortable with telling him my issues.

As a man in the black community, it is frowned upon to go seek therapy. We are taught to be strong and be fierce and be tough and not need any external help, but my therapist has made me comfortable and being vulnerable and that is important to me because I have so much built-up anxiety, anger love and just every emotion known to man.

the fact that I can express those things is helpful to a degree that can’t be calculated at

Doctor Tillman is an amazing therapist and and overall great role model. He is excellent and helping you answer the harder questions about yourself and presents many opportunities in allowing you to express how you feel and why it makes you feel that way. I highly recommend Doctor Tillman.
