These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Paul Clark. 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.
Very down to earth and respectful. Listens to both sides and doesn’t judge. Highly recommend!
Great therapist! Listened to our problems/concerns and was a great sounding board.

Paul is a good listener and is able to pick out the important details in an involved scenario. He keeps an air of impartiality and respect at all times and is very clear in his messages. He even injects a little humor when appropriate which is very helpful.
Very professional, easy to talk to and understanding. Enjoying working with him. Think he is the perfect person for myself and spouse.
Great person and easy to talk too. Wish I would have gone to therapy sooner.

So far we have enjoyed Paul and looking to make sure we stick with him. Very flexible hours and provides great feedback!
Paul is great. He is timely, professional and genuine. He focuses on giving us copeing tools over platitudes and does not come across as judgemental at all.
