Dr Guyer is a very knowledgeable and seasoned psychologist evidently experienced in many areas of therapy. She's very open minded and I feel comfortable discussing even very sensitive topics with her. I had to change from several other therapists to find a good fit and I highly recommend Dr Guyer.

Dr. Guyer is very caring and intelligent. I've only had one appointment with her, but I immediately felt listened to, and I was given some good advice and tools that helped me. I was surprised as it was only our first time talking. I look forward to more sessions together.
