I have been in therapy with Yvonne for two weeks now and I couldn’t have asked for a better match! Yvonne listens with so much compassion and asks probing questions to challenge me with continuous reflections throughout each therapy session! She has so much experience that she brings to the table and I have left both sessions so far feeling so much better and that I have a plan to tackle the next step of my journey.
I would highly recommend this therapist to anyone who may be in need of support!
