Cheryl has during our first 2 sessions have been very attentive to our conversation. Therapy is new for me, I have found that I'm listing to how I tell my story, and how it effects me and my family. I'm looking forward to continuing my sessions to see how I can heal from my past decisions and how best to guide my family.

Cheryl is a great therapist! She is caring and understanding of the problems that, until talking with her, I was struggling to identify let alone move forward to resolve. Her implementation of biblical scripture has motivated me to want to change myself. Don’t get me wrong, I needed someone like Cheryl to help me, but she actually opened my eyes to me wanting to help myself which I haven’t felt in years!

She’s attentive and offers sound practical advice and that’s all you could ask for out of a therapist
