Dr. Lewis has been an incredible therapist who has truly exceeded my expectations. As someone who never really believed therapy could make a difference, she has helped me rethink that mindset entirely. Dr. Lewis is insightful, and she challenges me in a way that pushes me to reflect on my mental processes without feeling overwhelmed. Her approach has helped me gain a deeper understanding of how I think and how to navigate my thoughts more effectively. I'm grateful for the clarity and growth I've experienced thanks to her guidance.

My counselor has made me feel very comfortable, I am learning many tools to help me work through my struggles/marriage. I feel like I'm speaking to someone who truly cares. I liked the overall experience of talking about my emotions/marriage.

Dr Lewis,
I greatly appreciate your time and words of encouragement and affirmation. I will always look at counseling as a beneficial and safe place to express my inner feelings/thoughts, a large portion of my positive outlook is because of how you treat me during our sessions. Thank you for you calm, thank you for your kindness.

Dr. Lewis is very compassionate and understanding. She listened to everything I had to say and had great questions to direct me or to think deeper about an issue. I will be talking with her on a regular basis! I was very nervous about my 1st meeting/call with her but she put me at ease quickly and we were able to discuss a lot of issues. She is also providing me tools to work with to help me overcome my anxiety. I would highly recommend Dr. Lewis!!
