Has been very guiding so far, since I'm still early on in the experience, doesn't always answer quickly, but has been very helpful

I have only been in a few sessions so farm but Emmerita has flipped the script on me and me realize why I needed therapy in the first place. I came seeking help for my marriage. She made me see that I need to heal myself first and I have been doing so ever since. I appreciate her for helping me reach deeper within myself.
