In just three weeks, Desiree has helped me more than I ever could have imagined. I have struggled with anxiety for almost 10 years and have had counselling before and stopped going to my sessions because I felt like I was getting nowhere - Desiree is the opposite of that, I look forward to my sessions because I know I can feel myself progressing and Desiree is helping me to understand myself and work through emotions better than I ever thought I could do.
The phone sessions work great for me as I feel comfortable and confident and the messaging platform is great for support in between sessions. I love that I can journal in the app and keep everything in one place and that I can share this with Desiree easily.
