Another wonderful appointment. Wendi Cancilla has valuable insight, is a skilled active listener, and demonstrates great care for her patients. She is consistently flexible and communicative both over text and during appointments, and goes above and beyond to help her clients. She is clearly experienced and displays this in multiple ways, including with her ability to learn, understand, and gather information from our conversations.

It's very understanding and knowledgeable, always willing to dig deep.. but in a respectful and non-prying way, her insight has been instrumental in helping me navigate all my issues and trauma.. if it wasn't for better help, Wendi, as well as my friends and family.. I'd probably be in a really bad place still.
Cannot recommend her enough.
