HORRIBLE!!! I took my 13 year old daughter there because as a mom, I wanted to be there for my daughter and she refused to talk to me and our first appointment, he just kept asking her " Why do you hate your mom" and she refused to answer. In the car afterwards, i asked her why and she said " Mom, I don't hate you. He's just a terrible counselor!"
Brad was instrumental in saving our marriage. He helped both of us to see the others point of view and helped us meet each others needs. I would recommend him to anyone in need of counseling.
Brad's wisdom and counseling skills have helped my wife and me bring about significant changes in a short amount of time. After many years of good marriage, we now anticipate many more of exceptional marriage. Even solid relationships encounter difficulties and need tuning, and his Biblical understanding blended with classic psychology have equipped us to nurture a deeper understanding and love for each other, and our adult children as well. We only wish we would have done this sooner!
I took my teenage son there because he seemed angry often. Dr. Brad readily assessed the situation and gave him practical strategies to apply. I appreciated his straight foward approach. My son is doing much better now.
A terrible experience, he was late every appointment then he took a pill in front of us and could barely stay awake..told us he had no answers for us and then became outraged when I disagreed with him and ordered me from his office after I paid. He is the reason we are no longer working on our marriage..The worse Dr. I ever have seen..after two sessions he tried to diagnose our problems as childhood problems..He is not fit to direct married couples in my opinion..Also told us he was a mind reader. He has a very over inflated ego of himself.
My husband and I came to see Brad in when we feared our marriage was broken beyond repair. Brad has been extremely helpful in keeping my focus where it needs to be and in encouraging my husband down a more positive road. His insights have been invaluable. With his help I have been encouraged to become the wife God calls me to be and my husband has opened his heart and mind to all he can and should be as a husband and father. We feel renewed in our life with God and each other and would recommend Dr. Larner to any couple needing help and support.
Brad Larner is honest and straightforward it has been a privilege to have met someone who is passionate about helping people. I would give him tens stars if I could! Not only does he help in some many areas in civilian life Brad also dedicates his time to helping veterans which is very honorable. Brad has helped my relationship with my now fiancee and we cannot be more happy that I was referred to Brad. I would recommend Brad to anyone :)
My boyfriend and I were struggling with our relationship. We had multiple setbacks and struggles and Brad took a very personal approach in rehabilitating our individual and collective needs. He gave us the tools to discover our faults which has promoted a healthier line of communication and understanding with one another.
My husband and I decided to see Brad when our marraige was on the brink of destruction. Over the past few months we went from almost filing for divorce to a happy, in-love all over again couple. His views and explanations are non-judgemental and he listens equally to what each of us are trying to work through. His methods and views have been extremely helpful. Thank you Brad for making this marraige new again! I will say this though...As much as he has helped us, we had to help eachother in ways that were suggested by him. If you really want your marraige to work, he is the man to see. If you are just going through the motions and have no intention on putting your own effort ino your marraige...Don't wast his time...or yours for that matter.
Our experience with Brad was the best. His Christian based counseling and ability to dig to the roots of our issues helped us heal a marriage that was dangling by a thread. He is confident, compassionate,humorous,and has a way of making you feel safe to discuss "dark secrets". He is the last counselor we will see for guidance...wish he had been the first
