Chitara is very professional and helpful. This is my first time doing counseling remotely and I am very comfortable with her.

I've only had one session with her, but she seems to be on the ball, compassionate understanding, and response back to me quickly. I think this is going to be very good for me.

Chitara has been an amazing therapist and while I may be relatively new in my journey, I feel lucky to be paired with her. After my 3rd session she has definitely helped me understand and validate my fears and more importantly has given me tools to navigate past them!
Thank you for everything thus far Chitara!
