Guadalupe is kind, caring, and has helped me through one of the most difficult periods of my life. She has provided Christian guidance and helped me feel more at ease with all the chaos going on in my life. I’m very grateful to her for all her help.

I feel as if I've known her for ever. I am very comfortable and can be vulnerable and completely blunt with any issue I'm facing she has the perfect way to approach my concerns and helps me find ways to find a solution or alleviate my concerns. I am grateful for finding her.

Guadalupe is a one in a million kind of therapist, she is attentive, kind and gives input that has helped me immensely. This is my first time going to a therapist and I hit the jackpot with her. I have dealt with a rough past and so far, she has helped me overcome some obstacles that I have been struggling with. I highly recommend her.
