She is so understanding and down to earth. Relatability makes it easy for me to open up!

She’s really nice and is someone who definitely doesn’t judge and makes conversation other than just what my problem is. She’s very nice and I recommend her!

Alisa helped me in a very difficult time. She was an empathetic listener, and a thoughtful support. Her insight really made a difference for me in my ability to think through hard decisions and life changes. I am incredibly grateful for the difference that she has made in my life.

Alisa is really great so far. She always lets me talk and has thus far helped me make a lot of connections I just couldn't quite make on my own. She never makes me feel weird about talking to her about anything. She also is great about giving me multiple options on how to continue healing and progressing!
