I love that she’s attentive , and you can tell she cares. I feel I will be able to learn better coping skills as a patient of Dr. Smith. I’ve been in therapy on and off for years cause I never felt like the therapist cared. She cares.

having the opportunity to gain trust and reassurance to straight up drop my overfilled emotional dumpster of emotional problems on someone who is willing to listen means so much to me when it comes to being a weekly regular. Also having that small fridge in the lobby is pretty cool because theres always options on sodas too which is definitely casually enjoyable. the environment in the lobby is always very calming less like a waiting room and more like a save room to catch my breath from trying to rush to not be late for my appointments. id like to add how important it is to have a consistent therapist as well, i grew up with therapists here and there consistently swapping in and out before and always had to start from scratch with life events that resulted in me just giving up trying to get therapy let alone care enough to open up to get anyone to understand me. which ultimately lead me up to who i am today as for my current therapist, id say its really comfy and reassuring knowing someone who understands where the life story is so far as my events and experiences are kept track of to see my progress of personal development. its very important understanding and fleshing out details of my issues and life events with my therapist to learn different perspectives from a zoomed out scale to comprehend and dissect aspects of the "why's and what next steps" to aim for a healthy direction on what level of momentum is needed for my next personal quests and self development, its not just a sit down and pour my heart out session and pay a fee whatever but its more of a metaphorical way of expressing how i can put my own psychological puzzle together and where pieces go and what pieces are needed to complete the puzzle. being real with yall i felt like an absolute mess of emotions like an overfilled dumpster of problems when i first started going to sessions, thriveworks helped me realize im not the metaphorical dumpster of emotional problems but rather to BE the dump truck driver taking on the ambitious goal of needing to haul off the dumpster and dispose of my emotional problems in a clean safe efficient way to make sure i dont let my problems overfill and fester more health hazards for myself and others. Id say i wouldnt be where i am without thriveworks and including a shoutout to my therapist Mr.Luebben for being incredible at listening and helping with the exhausting amount of excessive problems ive endured within my life. From the consistency, care and comfort, to the sodas in the lobby id recommend thriveworks to anybody who crosses my path when they need as much help as i did.

Jim has been a great therapist for me. Initially I was going to speak to him on my first visit about changing to a female therapist. He was so easy to talk to that the idea of that flew right out the window.
