I am a new patient with Dr. James Hawkins, he made me feel comfortable and he said we have a plan for you to help you as long as you do the work which I will. No other therapist ever said that to me, the previous therapist's, there were 2 just talked and never laid out a plan to save me and my marriage. Dr. James Hawkins is very clear and precise. He lets you know what the plan is and sends you lots of information. I am in my 70's with a second marriage that is failing due to me. My anger and fears have stopped me from seeking help for a long time and my previous therapist's never set a plan in motion. I will probably lose my wife because of it, I will cry like a baby I am the only one to blame, God help me.
