Donna really is the therapist that allows you to be ok feeling the way that you are currently. I would always find myself apologizing for my feelings and Donna reassured me that it is okay to let yourself be in the emotion just as long as you are able to see your way out and be better because of the situation.

I was hesitant to get into therapy after about 10mins I felt at ease. She’s straightforward she does not tell you what you want to hear but tells you what you need to hear. She’s very easy to open up to I’m glad I was matched with her as my therapist.
