Testimonials

“I have worked with Justin now for about 5 years and have found that he is the type of person who is always ready to lend a helping hand. He does not ever turn down an opportunity to help a fellow co-worker with any tips or advice or mutual care of a client. He has become the person I go to any time I get stuck with my care of a patient with mental health care needs and cannot seem to help them enough. He is very resourceful, a team player, and the therapist in town who I would refer every one of my patients needing any kind of counseling to. All of our mutual patients feel very comfortable with him, and they know that he truly cares about the work he is doing with them. In this small town, word of mouth is everything and Justin has received nothing besides positive feedback and all five stars on his care for his clients over the years. He is well trusted, well loved, and is an invaluable co-worker to have around. I cannot say enough how grateful we all have been to have him in our clinic to help give great quality of mental health care to patients and be an example of compassion within the workplace and community.”

“As a Social Worker, in a rural hospital, collaborative remedies to questions are few and far between. Fortunately, I have Justin available as just that resource. When I get stuck with a patient, I know I can count on Justin to give me good, ethically-led advice. Justin is knowledgeable and always an advocate for the patient, and their right to autonomy in decision making. I believe Justin listens carefully and provides well thought out feedback. I will keep his contact information close.”

“As an urgent care provider, I was immensely fortunate to work in the same clinic as Justin Hersom, LCSW, for 7 years, during which time his compassionate expertise was invaluable for a great many of my patients. On countless occasions, when their needs extended beyond the reach of medical care alone, Justin reliably stepped in at a moment’s notice, offering a safe and caring presence in the midst of some of their most challenging circumstances. Patients consistently told me how meaningful and helpful this was for them; and because of this, many elected to return for additional appointments with him. Justin is truly committed to supporting his clients on their personal journey towards increased emotional well-being and resilience. His knowledge and professionalism are unsurpassed.”

— Anne Heiner, Certified Physician Assistant

“Justin was my ‘go to’ counselor for my patients. He is always kind, considerate and respectful to all my patients without judgment. The feedback from my patients included feeling comfortable and heard with Justin and making progress during each visit on their various mental health conditions. I highly recommend Justin to anyone in my practice.”
