I put off trying therapy for years and finally decided to give it a go … and it has been beyond helpful thanks to Alesha. Alesha Made me feel welcomed and comfortable from day one, Is extremely easy to talk to, gives me the space I need to heal and has given me so many new tools that I can use in my daily life. I appreciate her insight, new ways of thinking, and she’s an amazing listener.

Alesha was like my guide throughout the therapy process. She would ask thought-provoking questions and listen without judgement. She pulled out insight from what I would say and help redirect negative thoughts and give me tools that I will take with me for the rest of my life!
