Jena actively listens and asks questions about how I'm feeling. She remembers what I say and sends me information and helps me get through what I'm dealing with.

Jena is responsive, understanding and very polite. I can’t really ask for much more. It’s my responsibility to fix the true issues. But she has been a welcoming help in the process
