Donna was great for my first time doing therapy. She was very empathetic and gave amazing advice. The methods and homework she gave me helped manage and minimize my stress and anxiety and will implement them moving forward.

Donna is great. I really didn’t want to do therapy at first because I wasn’t comfortable. I feel no pressure and it wasn’t anything strange. Having someone to listen and give a path forward has been very helpful.
