My experience with Carol has been such blessing and refreshing to this season of my life! I’ve to say that I was skeptical about who would be my therapist among so many. So I prayed and asked to God match me with the therapist I needed based on what I’m going through, and as always, He did beyond what I’ve prayed for. Seeing Carol for the last three weeks as been for me time for healing, understanding and exhortation. She’s so wise, caring and supportive. One thing I really like about her is that she knows how to be vulnerable and let me know that she’s human too. I value that so much! That helps me relate to her, and that also makes me feel understood and comfortable to open up even more to her. Besides that she lives Jesus, and finds delight in praying for her patients. I could write more, but for now I’ll stop here. I’m just thankful that now I’ve Carol’s help and assistance❤️.
