> I have always had doubts about Psychologist, maybe because of my childhood experience. However, after reading the reviews about Mortatha I decided to try it out. So far after three sessions I can say he is good. He nails it. He listens to you carefully, makes notes, and provides feedback about your problems in a professional, serious, but friendly way. His comments might be hard to accept and digest . After every session he really makes me think (and sometimes cry) about my patterns and how I can change them. I recommend him without hesitation.
