I feel that my pairing with Emmanuela is nothing short of divine. I have had some deeply rooted issues and pain (and fear) for years. Emmanuela has professionally and empathically reached in to help me start to heal. I am thankful to God that I have found this amazing therapist! God sent me exactly what I needed. And I am truly on the road to recovery.

Emmanuella is wonderful to work with. She is attentive and intuitive and she gets right to the point in an encouraging manner. I appreciate her proactive manner especially when I'm wallowing in my frustrations and feelings. She avoids scolding and redirects me towards the Lord and his truth.
I really like how we finish each session by setting a course of action for the week and I always come away from our time together feeling encouraged and energized to keep working on myself and my relationships with the help of a God.
