Barb is super great! She is funny and down to earth and really holds you accountable but in a caring and gracious way. She gives you homework so that you can practice implementing the strategies so you talk about, which gives you the skills for future success. Loved my time spent with her in therapy and you will too!

Barbara and I always have laughs and after two sessions I am getting more comfortable with therapy again. Happy to be able to have access to mental and behavioral help!
