She is kind yet stern. She will help you in your process of acceptance and healing.

Excellent therapist. Takes notes and can recall your history/previous discussions. Sends helpful links and suggest materials to aid in self improvement. Time is well utilized, productive, and conversation is always fair and two-sided. She listens.
