Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Alexander Johnson. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Alex is great. My wife and I really like him.
We are doing couples' counseling with Alexander and we really like his style. He has been extremely helpful and understanding of our shared and individual needs, and has made us feel comfortable and safe. We highly recommend him!
Great communication and support
An incredible human. Listens well. Alex is comforting, professional, and has a good sense of humor. He keeps things serious when needed and responsibly humorous where he can. I appreciate his optimism, kindness, and gentleness in hard to communicate situations. He is very capable of switching to serious clinician mode when need be and it is sobering but respectful and said with tact. The man knows his stuff.
