I lucked out that I got a great therapist for my first time. I feel at ease talking to Holly and she makes me feel heard.

I always wanted to seek therapy I just didn't know it was as easy as getting an app and how I could connect with someone when I am not able to talk about anything. Holly has made me feel comfortable and helped me feel understood. She really tried to understand me and challenge me.
