Carrie has been amazing.
I've tried a number of therapists, and she was the first one that really fit what I was looking for from a therapist. She takes the time to listen and understand your problems without judgment, and she gently provides actionable suggestions that are sensitive to your issues. I recommend her without any hesitation.
