I found my session with Adrienne very helpful. I am open to more sessions with her.

I absolutely adore Adrienne she has helped me grow in tremendous ways in the few sessions we have and always makes me feel so comfortable and never makes me feel rushed. I’ve had some therapists before but none of them made me feel comfortable or safe to talk to or like they really cared about my main concerns but she listens to all and addresses all as well as telling me when I’m making progress which is super nice to hear I recomend her 100%

I have never felt so validated or open with a therapist. Adrienne Faust has been great and I am very happy I found her.

Adrienne is very accommodating of what makes you feel comfortable making it feel safe to open up. She is very easy to talk to and holds space for your questions concerns and doubts. I really enjoy her unique approach to personalize our sessions according to my needs and what works for me as her patient. You can see how devoted she is to helping her patients feel empowered and like they are benefiting from therapy.
