Dr Ferrari is one of the best therapists I have ever had. She is a great listener and not quick to jump to a quick-fix conclusion. Her insight has been extremely helpful to healing and understanding. She is amazing!

Dr. Ferrari has provided a sounding board for me to express my thoughts and emotions dealing with my anxiety and general self doubts without judgment. It has given me more perspective and allowed me to explore emotions that I typically supress.
