She is an excellent therapist who truly takes the time to listen and understand your experiences, and I'd recommend her to anyone especially those who are looking for an easy to speak to down to earth person

Alessandra is amazing, from someone who didn't even really want to do therapy but felt pressure for answer I found out I needed it, and really want to do it now simply by having someone so willing to listen and give great advice and support. Highly recommend!
