It has been the most amazing experience. I could never have hoped that having a therapist would help me so much. I appreciate the way she work, her mannerisms and the way she treats me. I feel we have an open and honest dialogue. She has helped me see my way through what was a very dark time.

Devorah is a kind, compassionate therapist. I appreciate her insights as she has helped me work through a divorce with a high conflict person. She has given great guidance with regard to my trans child as well. I highly recommend her.
