Google Review
Since I was a child up through to now I’ve seen roughly 9 different therapists, I’ve been seeing Ethan Milner (who currently works out of this office) for almost 2 years now and I can easily say my experience with him has been the best. I’ve never felt more listened to or understood by another professional and I’m immensely grateful for the care I’ve received and proud of the progress I’ve made. If you’re a neurodivergent person with a lot of trauma looking for the best of the best care from a fellow neurodivergent person, he’s the one!
