Mrs.Rivera is a great listener and makes me feel so comfortable to tell her anything. I don't feel judged or misunderstood during our sessions. I've noticed a tremendous change in my life and the way that I can positively cope with certain situations I used to struggle with before taking her advice. She has helped me tackle the traumas that have haunted me since my childhood, and taught me how to handle people who are being negative. I always look forward to our sessions. She has giving me nothing but the best and most positive knowledge that I need in my life. After each session, I always feel so uplifted and motivated. Mrs.Rivera you are awesome and a blessing to me. I couldn't have asked for a better therapist then you!
