I feel so fortunate to be connected with Rayna. She creates a safe, neutral atmosphere to discuss deep issues and their manifestations, making subsequent connections and revelations easy to see and explore. I really trust Rayna and feel she was born to do this! I look forward to speaking with her each week and have made real progress with through our sessions & the worksheets and practices she thoughtfully recommends. She always has good ideas and resources for whatever comes up. Her manner is kind, warm and patient. She is professional, wise and quick thinking, always asking helpful questions and gently shedding light on what she observes. I highly recommend Rayna’s services-she’s a truly gifted therapist.
