I found the courage to tell him some of the real challenges I'm going through and he was instantly receptive to help me and give me advice that he had been honing for decades.

Ed was condescending, rude, and unhelpful. On the first (or second?) session, he spoke down to me, thinking I had not completed the required forms. I corrected him that I indeed had, and he didn't apologize for speaking down to me (which he shouldn't have done even if I hadn't completed the forms). Of the sessions I had with him, I didn't think they were conducive to growth or progress. He was also overall unprofessional and disinterested. He was shockingly critical, especially for a therapist.
