Desiree Cantorna-Ibarra has been so helpful. When we meet, I know she has read my journal entries because she will refer to them. She even will send a quick word of encouragement when she notices that in an entry I just might need it in that moment. I appreciate her listening ear and effective strategies.

I must say that I am very thankful for the sessions I had with Ms. Desiree, she opened doors in me that were closed in my past. I now see that I was harming myself by getting frustrated on the search for my future. I still a lot of work to do but I am confident that I will be a better person to me. Mahalo
