Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Errick Thornton. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Second session with Errik and we are very thankful for him.
Errick does his best to maneuver your brain into thinking positive. To be the best you. He's patient, and kind. He doesn't judge my humor, or my quirks, he just offers solutions to the issues I have with every day life. Keep Errick in mind when choosing your next shoulder to lean on.
I am amazed by the changes I experienced since I started my therapy with Errick. Is tough for me to open and talk about some issues, but Errick makes me feel comfortable and safe. Being a non believer in therapy for the most of my life, I am happy I decided to do it and happy with the path my life is taking. , Having Errick as my therapist is a good part of it.
One of the highlights of working with Errick is how he recognizes and celebrates my achievements, no matter how small. When I make progress, he takes the time to acknowledge it, which not only boosts my confidence but also reinforces my commitment to the work we’re doing together. It feels like having a coach who genuinely wants you to succeed and shares in your victories.
Thanks to his support and the steps I’ve taken under his guidance, I’ve noticed a shift in my outlook. Things are looking more positive these days, and I attribute a lot of that to Errick's straightforwardness and encouragement. Overall, I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist who combines honesty with empathy and who is truly invested in their clients' growth.
Errick is a fantastic therapist, he's a pleasure to talk with, and always challenges me to dig deeper. He recognizes the progress I've made and encourages me on my journey.
My therapist, Errick, listens attentively to my concerns and addresses them in a timely manner. Our sessions have been on point and incredibly informative, providing valuable insights that we actively utilize. This week has been significantly better for my marriage, and I’m excited to continue this journey.
I believe teen counseling is a good alternative if you can't find a therapist in your city or home town. Therapy alone is expensive and I just needed support when leaving a 8 year relationship or how to communicate I definitely got the answers I was looking for. Unfortunately therapy isn't cheap. But with teen counseling I was able afford a therapist for a month in order to get the answers I was looking for. My therapist definitely listened to my concerns and helped my self esteem.
Errick is great. Highly recommend
Very nice good therapist
Eerick is a great therapist that is compassionate and patient. He understands where you're at abd gives you work to do each week to get better. Working with him has helped me so much and I love knowing that I can just reach out to him between sessions when I need help. He is really caring and loves helping!
Errick has helped me think about things in life in a different way. He challenges me in ways that help me move forward and break free from unhealthy patterns of behavior. He is positive and I look forward to our sessions and conversation.
Errick is respectful, positive and caring with his patients. I feel confident and trust him with the information I share with him.
Erik is an excellent therapist. He is science based and knows his stuff. His expertise is completely evident in the sessions and the general plan for treatment. He's also patient and understanding. I absolutely recommend Erik.
Errick has been great. He had helped me through some troubling times and helped me keep a positive outlook and gave me tools to help accomplish that.
Errick is very understanding and openminded
He makes sure you're always bringing in your A-game, he strives for you to be at your 100%, and tells you the steps to get there.
He’s great and knowledgeable person who listens and talks like an older brother trying to give you advice because he’s not only knowledgeable about it in education but through experience.
Errick is excellent!
This is the first time I have tried therapy and it's been helpful since day one. I have a lot of unspoken words that I keep to myself so having a professional to talk to makes it a much more helpful setting for me to work on my negative self-talk. I will continue to work on bettering myself, and I'm glad I was matched with the right person to help me through it.
Errick is very passionate about what he does and makes a concerted effort to connect with clients. He shares his personal experiences when appropriate to establish topical credibility, and demonstrates empathy as well as compassion to address grief. Overall a solid therapist thus far.
Errick has been great in directing me through my journey. He’s responsive and keeps me honest.
He presents his self very well and has a great way of working with people and communicating with them I have just started having sessions with mr. Thornton and I am very glad that I got matched with him
