Parent Testimonials
“My son worked with Ethan in the course of a tough transitional period in his life. Ethan’s steady support and empathetic approach were just what my son needed and he’s better now because of it. Ethan was available and he never missed an appointment or meeting. He was also very good at keeping us parents in the loop. I recommend Ethan Gordon. It was worth it.”
- Patrick B.
"Ethan was a reassuring force for all of us when our son returned home from Wilderness Therapy and Therapeutic Boarding School at 11 years old. Ethan was able to build a strong trusting connection with our son - - not always an easy feat. Ethan became the consistent non-judgmental confidant that our son needed. Ethan was also critical to re-building our own confidence and resilience in parenting our son. Our now 14-year-old son has skills most adults never have the opportunity to learn. He is thriving in and outside of the home. Ethan was an essential part of that success.”
- Jill and Mike from Houston
"Ethan for the past year has been an invaluable resource for our family providing mentoring and guidance for our son Jack. Jack struggles with anxiety and was having difficulty transitioning to independent living in college.
He has not only helped Jack manage his anxiety on a daily basis, but has empowered him with coping strategies, accountability, and tools to gain confidence and succeed on his own. As parents, Ethan provides us with a level of comfort and is a crucial part of Jack’s support system.
We cannot fully express our deep gratitude for the tremendous positive impact Ethan continues to have in Jack’s life during this critical transitional chapter.”

Mentee Testimonials
“Ethan was a great support for me when I came home from wilderness therapy. I struggled initially to readjust to living at home again, and later to being back in college after taking time off for my mental health. He was always available for me to offer advice, help me set goals for myself, and encourage me to be my best self and further grow in a non-therapeutic setting. Even in times when I was doing and feeling very well, I was always thankful to have quick calls with him to check in and make sure I was on the right track, whether it was just for the day or for the emotionally healthier lifestyle I was working to build with his support. Ethan helped me greatly in working through my anxiety about the difficult transitions I was making in my life. I am so grateful for his role in helping me cement myself in my new environment as the capable and resilient person that I struggled at first to see myself as, but that he always saw within me.”
– Heath Y.
“Ethan was the most caring mentor. After flying down from across the country to see me, Ethan showed that he cares and that he is able to help out his clients in any way possible. Ethan gave me space when I needed it and helped me through everyday conflict, and was willing to answer a call at anytime when I needed help.”
