Reviews

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

Dr. Varner is amazing. We were struggling and he immediately listened to us without interruption, was sympathetic and really kind. We’ve only seen him for a little while but I’m sure there’s more to comes 10/10 recommend Dr. Varner!

I am not sure how Ginger feels but as far as I can tell I am Glad we connected and found Dr Varner. His more relaxed attitude and sense of humor matches our and it makes it easier to discuss our relationship because of that.

I feel we are making good progress and if we stick with the tools that were given to us we will strong then our communication skills :)

Dr. Varner has been amazing. We started sessions for marriage counseling. He listens to both of us and works with us to get through the issues we see and brings attention to the ones we may not. I was unsure about therapy online but this has been a tool to use and has greatly helped in our situation.
