Richard helped me through the most difficult situation and trauma I have ever experienced. He is kind, caring and companionate about helping others. If you are looking for a safe place to express your grief/struggles, and heal, look no further.

Report
Richard Shaw is a great therapist. Our household was having trouble with becoming new parents and the stress that it brings on top of my partner being in school. He really helped us manage our stress, strengthen our relationship, reduce anxiety, and becoming pro active in our mental health. He is very friendly, and I look forward to working with him in the future if the need ever arises again.
