Tonie is a down-to-earth professional who listens carefully and provides a safe space to discuss any topic. She responds with compassion and understanding.
She reminds me to work on self-care, and checks in each week to see what I did for myself.
Her pragmatic approach to handling difficult interpersonal relationships gives me a foundation to support my new path of self-advocacy.
She has helped me to become myself again.
