Sharon is absolutely wonderful! She is such a kind woman who is so considerate, patient, and talking with her is so easy! I was so anxious about having to speak on the phone and after a minute I felt instantly at ease and knew right away that it was a safe space. She is a very uplifting person as well! I loved being able to joke around with her! With all the tough things we talk about, it’s very nice to be able to leave a session not feeling like crap after you just relived your trauma haha! I am taking a break from therapy but will always request Sharon from now on and would highly recommend her to anyone!
