Wonderful woman! I was hesitant to give therapy another go, but Dontrell made it easy. I love her kind and direct approach, and she doesn't make me feel pressured to do anything. She's really good at "meeting you where you are".
I have recognized a significant difference in the way I look at myself and life. Even my friends and family noticed a change. I am greatful

I couldn't have asked for a better person that understands my thoughts and helps me process everything. Trell is very passionate and kind at what she does and listens to understands. She provides techniques to help coax through the roughest times. Glad to have met her!!
