She’s a great listener, very insightful giving you practical tools. She had a very warm and inviting spirit.

I tried therapy once before Surilla and it was AWFUL. I didn’t feel heard and I didn’t feel comfortable trying it again for two years. I decided to give therapy one more shot and was matched with Surilla and she has been exactly what I needed. She asks all the right questions to get my wheels turning and I truly feel like she cares about my problems and listens to me. If you’ve never tried therapy or tried it and hated it, I would recommend seeing Surilla. She will absolutely change your mind about how you view therapy and really try to help you through whatever it is you’re going through without making you feel judged.

Surilla creates an environment where I feel seen, heard, valued, supported, and safe. I look forward to our sessions, they really do get me through my week.

She is very understanding, always making me feel heard no matter the situation. She’s very good at listening and giving me positive feedback. She makes me feel very comfortable and I feel safe telling her anything I’m going through.
