I have thoroughly enjoyed my journey with Jane as my therapist so far and am very much looking forward to what the future will bring! Jane is kind, attentive, strong and smart. She has a lot to bring to the table as a therapist and I feel very comfortable under her guidance!

Jane is amazing. She listens to everything you have to say and then allows you to process everything. She has given me many tools to use throughout my days and I wouldn’t be where I am today without her.
