Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Michael Schmit. 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.

We LOVE Michael. He’s so easy to talk to and he explains things very clearly and it’s helped me and my partner with communication skills and how to be better for one another. He’s very knowledgeable in all the topics that we’ve brought up from sex, porn, addiction, communication, conflict, basically anything we’ve had to work through.

Dr. Schmit is a wonderful therapist with a good ear and a good heart. You can really sense that he empathizes what you’re going through and is more than capable of helping you digest anything you may be going through. He’s a great therapist if there was a way I could recommend him to more people I definitely would.

Dr. Schmit has been extremely helpful with providing different and efficient communication techniques for myself and my spouse. From day one he has been easy to open up to and share vulnerable feelings and emotions about our marriage to enable us to truly learn and grow together.

Michael is a very empathetic listener, and has keen insights into everything we've discussed. He makes me feel happier when I talk to him, like the things I want to achieve are within reach. He has good suggestions for me. I trust and value his advice. I'm going to stick with Michael for a long time.

Dr Michael had been fantastic in our short time together & I look forward to each session. He is an excellent listener & has simple solutions to my complicated issues. It’s been my pleasure to work with him & I’m now recommending him & therapy to friends & strangers alike. Which is odd for me to openly talk about. But I am thoroughly embracing this journey & my openness has been embraced by all. Especially Dr Michael & I could not recommend him more. 5 stars

I am hoping you can please relay this information to Dr. Schmit. We absolutely love and appreciate Dr. Schmit. He is such a great therapist and we really wish we could afford to remain clients of this platform, but we simply don't have enough income to support it. We hope your platform grows as we found this place very helpful in dealing with our issues. Good luck and thanks to Dr. Schmit who is probably the best therapist on this site....just sayin!

Work with me!
