A Little Bit About Sean...

I grew up in Boston and have lived on the South Shore for the past 10 years. I am a Fur Dad to two wonderful pups. I spent my twenties trying to find success in Business only to realize that it was not for me. Each step I took, helped me to be the person I am today and find the path I was searching for all along.

 

WHY DID YOU BECOME A THERAPIST?

Becoming a therapist has been a dream since I was a small boy. It took me a long time to have confidence in my abilities and to follow my passion. I wanted to walk each day with a purpose and make a positive contribution to society. Being a therapist gives me the opportunity to shine some light in the darkness and provide hope for those that find themselves in short supply.
