I’ve been working with Brin for a few weeks now, and she is absolutely the best. She gives such heartfelt advice and completely puts me at ease with every issue I have presented to her. I also really appreciate the way she mixes up lighthearted content with the heavy stuff, it really makes “sessions” easier to get through. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

My life would be much more painful and confusing right now if I hadn't found Brin.
