Our first session was extremely insightful and helpful! Looking forward to working together again!

At the beginning of our session, Swiyah sat and just listened to me rant. After a while I got a little worried that maybe she wasn't interested, but just as that happened she hit me with a few questions that nailed my issue dead on its head. Not only can she listen well, but she seems to think it all the way through before responding and then going directly to the heart of the matter. The issue I showed up to therapy for was mostly resolved in one session. Now, my needs in this case were not so very complex, it was work-related, but I'll be coming back to see her for more in-depth and deeper stuff because I feel like I can trust her now. Wonderful lady, very down to earth and real.
