“We have both worked with Pastor Brian Hooper, and warmly endorse him as a knowledgeable Pastoral Counselor, who understands and works with  both the psychological and the spiritual  needs of his clients.   It must also be said that he is an excellent teacher, articulate and  succinct, well read and enthusiastic.”

“Compassionate.  Insightful.  Grounded.  Visionary.  Supportive.  All this and more comes to mind when I think of Dr. Brian W. Hooper and his extraordinary gifts for engendering healing and promoting psychological and spiritual growth.

For many years now, I have been most fortunate to consult with Dr. Hooper in the course of my own pastoral counseling.  Unfailingly he combines his deeply rooted spiritual base with refreshing new ways of re-framing life situations offering healthier, more holistic possibilities for the future.

He is gifted.  He is a gift.”

-Pastor John M. Kauffman

“I have known and worked with The Rev. Dr. Hooper for over twenty years.  I have grown to deeply respect his intellect, his professional skill and his integrity.  Dr. Hooper is a strong listener with a keen analytical mind.  I strongly endorse his work.”

“I have referred several people to Dr. Brian Hooper for counseling.  Each has let me know that working with him was comfortable AND very useful for gaining insight, restoring hope, and finding practical ways to deal with situations and life in productive ways.  A person I know very well has also benefited from Brian’s counseling and his skillful use of hypnotherapy to deal with panic/anxiety attacks.  Both professionally and personally I have seen people find new joy in self, become more effective in how they relate to people and more productive in their professions.”
