I feel like I lucked out in getting matched with Venise. She’s extremely knowledgeable, understanding and personable. She’s offered a lot of great tips and exercises to help work through some personal growth. She’s also a great listener and is good in terms of following up on things I have expressed in past sessions.
She helped restore confidence in myself after experiencing grief post breakup. Overall she’s helped me “restore balance” and create a new chapter.
I would definitely recommend working with Venise.
