Daniel Burgess is an outstanding therapist who cares about his clients and their unique needs. He approaches others with an openness and a willingness to listen and learn as he withholds judgment and seeks to understand. Daniel is confident and ready to share his own perspective and expertise. I have seen how he has the courage to challenge the status quo and speak up about things that are not working. He is well-read and current on relevant research. He is generous in supporting others and is highly invested in helping individuals, couples, families, and society at large live with healthy habits and attitudes. I also know Jessica Holfetz to be a competent and compassionate therapist. She meets clients where they are and has the skills and training necessary to support and guide them on their healing journeys. I highly recommend Ascent Family Therapy as a resource for anyone seeking therapeutic support and advice. —Anarie W
