I have worked with Steve for many years he has been extremely helpful in helping me deal with struggles in my life. I struggle with suicidal depression and other maladies hes been helpful and helping me to see how to face and deal with them. I greatly value and Trust his wisdom and insight. It has aided me in my relationship with my wife and God.
Steve is extremely professional, competent, friendly, and knowledgeable. Steve worked with me as a life coach to help me grow in my organizational leadership. I benefitted greatly from his wealth of knowledge, resource recommendations, and talking through my companys goals for me as a leader. I know others who personally worked with him as their therapist and they have nothing but good to share about him. I would recommend Steve as a life coach or a therapist.
Steve Brand has great empathy for his clients. Healing by understanding and using God’s word to bring hope.He has used his extensive training and his many years of experience to help those of us who are hurting. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs someone who can be trusted.
Steve was incredibly effective at helping me get to the heart of the matter in identifying and healing from past trauma. Very highly recommended!!
Steve has always been very professional and has always had my best interest at heart, I am very grateful for everything he has done for me so far.
Steve Brand is non-judgmental, easy to talk to, patient, helpful, and encouraging. I highly recommend Steve.
Steve Brand was our marriage counselor and after I decided to leave the marriage, he continued on as my wife’s counselorWe went to arbitration and he testified against me for something that allegedly happened during the marriage.If you’re going to marriage counseling with Steve be careful as he will follow the money, as my wife and my stepdaughter and now his primary clients.
Steve Brand has helped me so much. He’s easy to talk to and open up with because he’s real. Not some guy with just book knowledge but real life experience. On top of all this, he’s a great guy. I highly recommend Steve!
Steve changed my life forever.My journey with Steve began even before I started counseling and coaching with him, as he has worked with many close friends with similar effect. Over the years, I had seen several people I cared deeply about - who had before been happy and healthy - become shells of themselves for various reasons. Time after time, after working with Steve, they were restored back to the way I knew them to be, but even stronger than before.I wanted that too, but had kept putting it off because I was afraid.After sojourning as far as I could alone, I reached out to Steve this past year after deciding enough is enough. Steve’s response to my initial message was extraordinarily empathetic and compassionate - character qualities I desperately needed in that time. I needed a listening ear and a kind heart to acknowledge and understand my story. I needed clarity about what had happened, where I had gotten to, and how. I needed sage advice and wise counsel about how to heal and proceed again through life, but this time in a way that actually worked (which it does even today!). Steve has all of this in spades.But most of all, I needed a friend. Steve has become a friend as well, for which I am forever grateful.Coaching then became the logical step of pragmatism following the more pathology-based Counseling approach. The foundation of character growth and development we had laid in Counseling, in addition to the trust and rapport built over time, made for a seamless transition into Coaching. The assessment he uses is worth its weight in gold. Think MBTI with shades of the Enneagram on steroids + the Japanese concept of Ikigai within the context of your current role. It is eerily accurate, which was confirmed by everyone I shared the results with. We were able to illuminate what I truly want and need from a career in addition to the why and potentially the how, whether adapting to my current role or in search of another opportunity should it arise.As I have gone through private Counseling as well as Coaching with Steve, I can say without a doubt his services are valuable and highly effective. Steve is a master at what he does and comes highly recommended by myself and many, many others before me.If you are considering working with Steve in any capacity, please let this be assurance to you that you are not wasting your time. I hope you find what youre looking for...Thanks for reading.
My experience with Steve has been very positive! He is kind, encouraging, and a great listener. He is patient and non-judgmental; I feel free to express my emotions in a safe place. He has helped me to recognize and understand some things about myself thus enabling me to get unstuck. His professionalism and expertise makes it easy to highly recommend him! Thank you! Lisa
Working with Steve was like having a conversation with a good friend who genuinely cares about resolving the issues that are affecting you. He provides not only guidance but encourages you to actively participate in your personal growth without making it feel like you are going through therapy. Highly recommend Steve and his work. He made such a positive long lasting impact in my life.
I am Kent Brand, a friend and also a psychotherapist. Steve and I have been great friends for years. We first met in Boston and have been bonded ever since. I totally trust Steve to give great guidance and advice. He is warm, friendly, and intelligent. He has a deep faith in God which gives him a great peace and a much greater insight into your problems. Steve has excellent skills and believes that incredible things will happen in your life. He is calm, patient, thoughtful, creative, resourceful, loyal, faithful, optimistic, determined, inspiring, cheerful, refreshing, funny, adaptable, confident, and an amazing man of God. Steve knows how to team with you to find the root of the problems. Later, he will co-plan with you to find great solutions. I am confident in your choice of Steve as your counselor and psychotherapist.
Steve helped me and my family through a very difficult time and we are forever grateful. I have been able to untangle some of the things that have really held me back in the past and I am experiencing a freedom that I didnt think was possible. My daughter recently commented that I have been a different person and that she is so happy to see me happy. Thanks Steve!
Steve is knowledgeable, insightful and empathetic. I have appreciated working with him and have found him quite helpful. I would highly reccomend him as a therapist.
Steve Brand meets you where you are and journeys with you as you uncover, heal and grow to where you want to be. He embodies compassion, kindness and understanding, treating you with patience, dignity and respect as he gives you tools to overcome life’s challenges. I have seen other counselors before, but no one has helped me get “unstuck” like Steve has – he’s been an integral part of helping me make sense of my story and breakthrough to greater freedom. I highly recommend Steve – you won’t be disappointed!
I appreciate Steve because you feel listened to. He genuinely desires the best outcome for his clients. To him counseling isnt just listening however he takes it further sharing details from his life experience, books to give you a different perspective, and real life analogies. I feel empowered after meeting with Steve to think differently then my background dictates. Im grateful because I feel led towards action and freedom from the past.
He wasnt a good fit for me. I remember he made a comment that still bothers me. He said I lived a fascinating life.It seems like his other patients havent given him enough of a challenge. 3 sessions was enough money wasted to realize he was not what I wanted.
I would say that seeing Steve helped me more as a man than I could have ever expected. Coming from a background where I struggled with addiction and codependency, Steve helped me walk through and adequately address experiences in my past that were hindering my ability to fully mature. He did it in a no pressure and deeply caring way that always helped me to feel comfortable and supported in my emotional and personal growth. I would strongly recommend to anyone considering therapy, it is a tough experience and journey but you will grow immensely and benefit greatly both personally and professionally. Steve is a kind man, but will certainly push you to grow and challenge yourself when necessary!
Steve has reshaped the way I view myself, my family, my upbringing, my marriage, and forgiveness. I highly recommend Steve to my close friends and family. Thank you deeply for what you do!
Steven Brand – My self-sabotaging attitude was destroying me and everything I cared for. I knew I was powerless, but I also knew that I needed to act before it was too late.I knew it was common sense to cherish, protect, and care for the people that loved me. I knew I needed to work hard, to grow personally and professionally, and be optimistic about the future. But if all these made sense, why was I destroying and sabotaging my own life? Why was I hating myself and everything around me so deeply and viciously?There is no worst feeling that to feel powerless and defeated. There is nothing worst than to see life disintegrating in front of my very own eyes and being unable to do anything about it.Steven Brand was my first and last resort. He helped me to accept that I was not in control and that there was something wrong with my choices and thought process which was uncomfortable enough. I, honestly, was only willing to try Steve once and still cannot fully understand what happened the first time I met with Steven. Never the less I have never felt so much compassion and understanding. It was an atmosphere in which, for the first time, I didn’t feel judge or guilty to express, to show my hurt and pain. It has been a liberating experience.I appreciate the unconditional love and the truth that was shown to me during my many moments of disbelief and moment when I wanted to give up. I never saw anyone fight for me the way Steven did. He knew that my pain and hurt could be healed and knew that I could be transformed, experiencing a new way of thinking and life choices.Now, to you that is reading this review, I feel your pain. I truly don’t wish upon anyone the abuse and hurt I went through as a child by my own mother. I cannot reassure you that the road of recovery is an easy one since I myself wanted to give up so many times. So much hatred, rage, and desires of destructions I encountered in my journey. And perhaps your journey will be a different one. None the less, there is one thing that I can assure you, you need someone like Steven on your corner. The journey is hard enough and failure is lurking on every turn. You need someone that believes that you can be healed, and you need some one that will tell you the truth in love.My success to overcome my pain, hurt, and abuse it is as much mine as it is Steven’s. He is not just a counsellor he is there fighting with you. Because I experienced what one day I thought was impossible, now I can say what I thought was impossible “I love and trust my mother; I love and trust my wife.” Believe in you and believe that you can heal and become whole like never before.Thank you, Steven. I will forever be grateful for believing in me!

I am so filled with relief since I reached out to Steve to help me deal with struggles/issues that have really bogged me down! For years, or all my life I should say, I lived as if I carried a ball and chain. There was an origin to all my thoughts and feeling. With the help of Steve it was as though the mask came off and I was able to identify by name the different triggers or struggles I dealt with. It has been truely amazing with his coaching how I am now able to be much more in control vs my feelings, thoughts or emotions in control of me. So liberating! The freedom I feel is uncomfortable!
Steve has provided me with a new paradigm to look at my life and make changes. His consultative / encouraging approach has helped me work through my road blocks and make progress at home, spiritually and with my company.
