Jonathan Bennett, Jr. MA, LPCS, NCC, CAMS-I

“As a single mother of a teenage boy, Mr. Johnathan Bennett has been a blessing and an answered prayer for my son and I. Growing up without his father present in his life has never been easy for him. As a young boy, I knew it affected him in a major way along with a close family member's death and other life issues. I didn't know the extent that it affected him until Sunday, June 30, 2019, when I discovered that my son had purposely harmed himself.

I felt helpless, hopeless, afraid, and sad, but I knew I had to get him help as soon as possible. He had been to counseling when he was younger, but I never imagined we would be facing this.

I prayed and asked God to help me find a man that my son would feel comfortable talking to, someone my son would listen to and would take his advice to change his life for the better, and most importantly someone who believed in GOD and would give godly counsel.

I started my search that same day on google and found several different counselors, but it was something about Mr. John that led me to call the office. I know it was GOD. The next morning I called the office and made an appointment for my son to speak with Mr. John.

Making that call was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life for my son and I. Mr. John was very patient with my son and I. He was also very understanding, considerate, and an amazing listener. Not only did he coach my son on how to cope with his feelings, he also assisted me in ways to speak with my son when an issue occurs and work through those issues.

He was available to assist us with any issue that we could not handle and would work with us as an unbiased mediator. Mr. John helped my son to see the value of life, build his self-esteem, and most importantly the importance of a relationship with GOD.

As a woman of faith, I am beyond grateful for Mr. John because I know for a fact (without him even saying) that he prays for us and he genuinely has our best interest at heart. As GOD is the head of our lives, he also incorporated and reminded us of God's word, especially during those hard times.

I truly thank GOD for Mr. John and I highly recommend him, especially if you are seeking godly counsel. Not only did he make a difference in our lives, with GOD's help he saved my son's life. We are grateful!”
