Ida has helped me with my issues tremendously. She has helped me to set boundaries and relieve me of my distorted thinking. She reminds me that God is in control and to trust him. Ida is a very calming and grounding presence.

Mrs. Terry is a great therapist and allows me to face and understand difficult and sometimes easy challenges I've faced from a professional and unbiased perspective. I am already doing things that I would have not done alone due to Mrs. Terry's help. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone who is in need of counseling.

Ida is a wonderful therapist. Not only is she professional and highly competent, but she is also a great listener and always seems to know just what to say. Ida has shown me many helpful techniques to deal with my anxiety, face any obstacles that come my way and plan for a better, healthier future. In short, she has helped (and is still helping) me to grow as a person and to align my actions with my values, for which I am truly grateful.

Ida is an incredibly approachable and respectful counselor. She feels like someone you can really be vulnerable with but she won’t baby you. She will provide you with different perspectives you can use to look at your current situation in a different light that can be really enlightening.
