Estelle is a wonderful therapist. She is fully engaged, and extremely patient. I know that she is listening to my concerns and she always guides me back to therapy goals. I tend to get frustrated and walk away from therapy when I don’t see immediate results. Estelle’s approach has encouraged me to keep doing the work.

Great listener and remembers what you’ve shared. She takes time after hours to consider how to best help you and comes ready with a plan. She has so much positive energy but is also very honest and pushes when necessary.
