She is by far the best therapist I've ever had. She listens, and challenges my way of thinking

Andrea is a fantastic therapist! She listened without making me feel like I was being judged. I learned alot about myself as well as learned some tools to move forward in life.

I was hesitant to book my first session. I was relieved of how easy it was to get through the appointment once I made it. Looking forward to our next session.
