She is someone who understands the needs of a person without having to explain much. The way she puts things into words that make so much sense really help figure out what your next steps are. She doesn’t push. She lets you get to your own conclusions. Understanding culture and womanhood without having to spend a month explaining nuances.

So far, she’s been the best therapist. She creates a safe space where I feel truly comfortable sharing my thoughts, and her guidance has always helped me find the best way to navigate what I’m going through. I highly recommend her.

I have been with Celestina for over 2 months now and she is one of the most understanding and welcoming people I’ve ever met. She’s allowed my introduction to therapy to blossom naturally and easily. I feel more confident in myself than I’ve felt in a very long time. She has provided me with a fully safe space where I can easily express how I’m feeling at all times.

I have had just two sessions with Celestina but so far she has been very great at listening to me, presenting me different options in terms of advice and been generally helpful.
