I have confidence in Dr. Nygard’s skills. She has given me the opportunity to develop a strong support system with her. I appreciate that she comes from a background understanding personal grief.

I have tried many therapists over the years and none has ever come even close to the quality of care and compassion from Dr. Holbrook. She is professional, kind, flexible and REALLY hears what I am saying. She is so responsive and can tell when I’m struggling and in a bad place. She makes herself as available as possible when I need her rather than when she finds it convenient. Best. Therapist. Ever. Thank you Dr. Holbrook.

Dr. Nyegaard-Holbrook was great. She is very attentive, supportive, punctual, insightful and has a very comfortable and friendly style. It sort of feels like talking to a very insightful friend during her sessions.

Dr. Holbrook is knowledgeable, understanding and helpful. I like how she encourages me to be my own personal without relying on therapy to solve all my problems.
