Jaleesa helped me though my darkest moments and everything inbetween. She has been there for me for years now, and I trust her with every fiber of my being. Jaleesa is incredibly patient and gentle, while also being the slap of reality like a good friend calling you out. She helped me get to the source of my troubles, and helped me for years through them. I will miss her greatly. Wishing you all the strength and happiness Jaleesa!

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.
