Dr Mendelson is a great therapist! I’ve had many over the years and she’s my favourite. She says things like they are and downs candy coat, which I like. She knows her stuff and has great insight on the plethora of issues we encounter in life.

Written on Jul 22, 2022 after therapy with Miriam for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, and coaching
Dr. Mendelson has been my first ever therapist and she quickly made me feel very safe. I was very insecure in a lot of things at first, but she helped me find new perspectives how to structure my studies in my life, listened to my rants that probably didn't make any sense and gave me advice about my sexuality or body image struggles. It's a process to get out of old habits and it will need time but with the help of Dr. Mendelson things have been clearer and easier for me. I highly recommend her - she's very thoughtful, non-judgmemtal and creates a very safe environment. I felt seen, heard and understood. I'm very grateful - Thank you so much :)
