I’ve only had two sessions with Gretchen but I’ve really enjoyed the time spent together and insights she has provided. She’s a good listener and I am looking forward to seeing her in the future

I've only had 2 sessions with Gretchen so far and I think she's outstanding. It's been a long time since I've been able to click with a therapist and I'm feeling very encouraged right now. Gretchen asks the right questions and makes great observations. She's also sent me some really impactful questionnaires to help me better understand where I'm at and to guide our sessions.

Super nice. I only have had one session so far, but Gretchen always responds to my journal entries.
