Geri is the best therapist and has taught me so much. She understands me and how to help me as I navigate life and learn more about myself.

My therapist makes me feel comfortable so that I can express my deep inner thoughts. She understands me and uses evidence based research, and laughter to help me navigate this part of my life.

Geri is the first therapist I’ve worked with. I came to a point in my life where I had the space emotionally and physically to even understand that therapy would help me very very much. I did a course with Thomas HUBL and Terry Real with healing trauma and that led me to do an Internet search and found better help and when I did my questionnaire, I was matched with Geri who has been very helpful and works with me.
I have been living with a long-term disability for 30 years.

Even though she’s been the only analyst I’ve had, she’s been the best one. Couldn’t recommend her more than I already do (which is a lot, to begin with)
