I feel that Jaleesa is a perfect match for me. She has done an excellent job of creating trust, which is difficult for me. She has a warm attitude, is knowledgeable about current practices, and always discusses my progress. I have learned some new techniques and am learning how to be in control of my own emotions.

My experience with Jaleesa so far has been pleasant. I have a therapist who listens and makes sense of my emotions/ thoughts. For a first time experience, I think I’ve gotten lucky.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with Jaleesa McMillan. When I first met Jaleesa, I was transitioning service providers and experiencing pandemic and work-related stress. Jaleesa was very kind and affirming. Where I struggled to honor my feelings, Jaleesa reminded me of the importance of giving oneself grace and care. I'm forever grateful and forever changed!
