Scott is very compassionate and honest. He has a lot of life experience and is able to understand both of our points of view. He helps us both re focus on our relationship and goals moving forward, rather than dwelling on the past.

Scott is a skilled listener who has a deep tool box for the problems my husband and I are dealing with as individuals and as a couple. I appreciate his forward facing approach- only emphasizing the past where it is impacting the present.
