I will be the brave one to review and recommend Mr. Costello. :-)I counseled with Ralph for 2 years between 1987 and 1989. The atmosphere of his office was always calming and conducive to therapy. In those days he used a very effective means of one-on-one talk and hypnotherapy to help me add many beautiful blessings to my life. There has been many years from then until now, but some of the goals I set for myself in his office, many have been achieved, and many are still being worked on in my life today.I highly recommend this man as one of the top therapists anywhere. He isnt going to show you a quick fix to your situations, but together you can begin to learn how to make a new life for yourself. Change takes time, in my experience the pains of life are temporary. It is when we align ourselves with quality professional people that we can stop the out of control-ness of life we sometimes experience. Ideally, to learn how to live better might be the first step of many toward your recovery, whatever your history has brought you through and to to this point. You cannot go wrong with Mr. Ralph Costello as your counselor. JH, Michigan
