I’ve worked with others over the years. What set Andrew apart from the start was something I hadn’t experienced before: feeling genuinely safe. He is non-judgmental, trustworthy, and someone who could engage with my faith. There is something very real and honest about him that made it possible to work on things I’d been managing for way too long. He respected my pace while gently guiding me forward. His blend of patience and persistence was tailored to me in a way that made all the difference.
I came to Andrew navigating alcohol, harmful patterns, and profound relational pain. The list of what shifted is long. I stopped drinking and moved through decades of dysfunction. I found the root cause of the pain I had been carrying and developed the self-awareness to actually do something about it. I learned to process my emotions, handle stress and anxiety, and set boundaries I had never been able to hold before. I became comfortable sharing the most vulnerable and difficult parts of myself.
Most significant was having a space where I could heal without being rushed or judged. Andrew’s patience, perception, and ability to communicate gave me the ability to feel safe, open, understood, and motivated.
