Genuine & Personable

My husband and I have been going to Real Life Counseling off and on for a couple years now. Our counselor has been so insightful and thoughtful for us both. He is genuine and personable, he's also quite inspiring as a person! I would recommend Real Life Counseling to anyone dealing with real-life issues.

Common Sense Advice

Joe is very approachable and unintimidating. He's easy to talk to and gives great feedback. We've seen Joe for both professional and pastoral counseling, he offers wonderful "common sense" advice, as well as a Biblical perspective. We really appreciated the amount of time and care he took with us. I'd easily recommend him to anyone I know going through a tough time.

Empathetic Healing

My experience with Joseph Klemz has been very positive. Consistently working to better himself and grow in his own life, he also empathizes intensely, and he goes the extra mile to build bridges and help people heal communication. I've been particularly impressed watching him help children navigate emotional impasses and heal bruised relationships. I recommend him wholeheartedly.
