Dr Kaufman made me comfortable immediately. I was anxious going in, didn’t know what to expect but was met warmly and naturally. I didn’t feel like I had to answer a questionnaire as in a doctor’s office and the conversation flowed pretty effortlessly. He asked me what I was looking for and I told him as best I could. I felt he was really listening to what I was telling him and felt no judgement or discomfort. He didn’t do the silent thing, waiting until I spoke. He clarified what I was saying and asked me pertinent questions. He also led me naturally to actions that might be helpful. He didn’t tell me what to do but he also didn’t just listen and leave me hanging with the classic “well how do you feel about that” but feeling like I had some direction that naturally came out of our conversation and that I was happy that I went. I believe that this is going to be very helpful and that Dr Kaufman was definitely the right choice. I recommend him highly.
Dr. Kaufman is great he is very attentive and approachable. Had a great couple sessions with him and will definitely continue! Highly recommend.
