Dianne helped me realize that things will get better with time, gave me tips to help relieve what I was feeling inside and to let it all out. I really enjoy my sessions with Dianne. I really appreciate being able to have a non-judgmental session that actually helps you to realize the value of life, to enjoy the time you have on this earth, and make it meaningful. At first I was skeptical thinking she is not an African American so she will not understand my struggles....but oh was I wrong, she definitely understood. Again I really appreciate her for helping me during my difficult times.
