Great listener. Professional and patient. I feel she is an advocate for her patients and has put in footwork to find other ways to support my therapy in addition to our sessions.

Brenda has been amazing. In just a few sessions, she’s helped me in very profound ways that I’m so grateful for. She’s very empathetic and gets right to the point. Couldn’t recommend her more.

I never had therapy before and Brenda made me feel comfortable right away! She listened, let me talk and was able to give me advice tips and tools and reading material. I have had a very good experience and I'm great full.
