I’ve only had one session but my future with Ms. Deanna as my therapist seems promising

Deanna has taken the time to understand not only what I need from therapy, but also what tools will work best for me. She always has a new resource to offer, and they’re always game changing. The monthly subscription is a bigger hit to my budget now that my financial situation has changed, but I am so happy with my therapy relationship that I’m going to make it work. Because it’s an investment in myself, and because I have never had so much success in therapy as I do with Deanna. She is worth every penny! I’m in a MUCH better place than I was when I started working with her, and I honestly don’t know what my life would look like if hadn’t. Thank you, Deanna!
