Mrs. Holley is an amazing therapist and I consider her to be an integral part of my healing journey. She does not try to solve my problems for me, but she guides me through the process of working through things for myself. I never feel alone, but I always feel that I am at the helm of my own ship. I’m so grateful that I was matched with her and grateful for this platform.
