Client Testimonials

  • "Kudos to you (Riley) If you hadn't told me to start complaining, to start treating myself like I would one of my kids- then I never would have made an appointment with my cardiologist against my physician's advice, I wouldn't have done that without your advice, I wouldn't have found out how much trouble I'm in. So thank you, you saved my life.”

  • I feel better, I feel like (trauma therapy) is getting rid of the bad and kicking it out. It's a 'good bye kind of thing.' Yesterday I had a conversation about a book that was about a rape and I had no problem talking about the subject material. I would never have been able to do that before. Oh yeah, I feel like this is making progress. I feel so relieved and it's not my fault and that life will be good."

  • ""I've worked with Riley and I've realized (Client speaking to himself, giving advice to himself) You know you're a good person. You can handle that little bit of weight. You can carry it for a little while. You don't have to carry it with you, you can carry it for a little while, and let it go anywhere later. It's not as bad as it seems."

  • “I would always beat myself up. I would tell myself that I lost the best part of me and the best part of my life. When I did trauma therapy with Riley. He gave me strength, I thought I had lost those strengths, but I still have them.”

  • "Honestly I felt a lot better. I felt like my son is proud of me. I felt like he was looking at me and he wouldn't want me to feel the way I felt. I'm glad that you're my therapist".

  • I’ve only found two counselors that I click with , that are able to keep me grounded, that keep me from cutting and the suicide lane. I’ve only had a couple therapists who have been able to keep me out of that lane- and you’re one of them. I really appreciate the fact that I’ve been blessed enough to find you."

  • "I just started meeting with Jonathan and I feel he has helped me with a different look at things already. I do feel better that he has a male view on things. I am a woman but I needed a different view for help with myself and marriage"

  • "I have really enjoyed our sessions. It feels like a ton of bricks is lifted off my back when I have my session. Riley is really good at getting me to internalize what we’re talking about, and not letting it bug me. And he does a great job at reaching out. He also has had great resources for me to check out."

  • "Riley has been very good about not only helping me with sources and seeing a different perspective in my difficult situations but he is also good at helping me see where I am in need of change within myself. He has been able to aid me in strengthening my relationship with my kids, myself, and God. Lastly, he is helping me continue this journey and not just requesting I come to him for everything but he has also lead me to the extra support that BetterHelp provides. Thank you for all you do Riley."
