Testimonials:
I have been going to therapy off and on for over 8 years. I never felt like my therapists understood me or that they knew how to help. I had almost given up on getting help. I decided to try one more resource and I am so glad I did. Found HQLIFEDESIGN through a friend and within the first few minutes I felt at ease. Quinn took the time to really listen to me and to validate what I was feeling. I felt heard for the first time. Once I realized I was actually being listened to I really opened up. I asked so many questions and we addressed them one at a time. I was given tools to help with my issues that I never would have thought to do on my own. They were fun and easy assignments that I did on a weekly basis. I was so excited for our follow up session and couldn’t wait for his feedback. He always took the time to really listen and to ask me questions too. Over time I started to feel more at ease every day. If I started to feel anxious I remembered what to do and actually did it. Most tools were easy to remember and not too time consuming. If I needed help in any way Quinn was there for me. I look back when I first started and I see huge growth in my outlook on life. My anxiety is at least 75% better and I look forward to what the future holds for me. Thank you so much for your help, advice, and empathy for me! I highly recommend HQLIFEDESIGN for anyone who needs some guidance, assistance, encouragement with life and learning. ~ Kat Otis
I was in a dark place (not too dark), but I just was not seeing the point in living and my place in the world. Quinn was able to help me uncover, that as I get past this academic part of life, my importance to others will become more recognizable. He helped me to look at problems from several perspectives. ~ Bernd V.
I am a father of a special needs child. My perspective of my son and relationship with him has forever been enhanced from the wisdom and coaching of Quinn. I was able to let go of my imagined expectations and comparisons of who I was at his various ages and accept him as and individual that is and will not be a mini-me. ~ H.E.
