Wow, I was a bit skeptical about how well virtual counseling would work. Boy was I wrong. Not only have I been able to learn new things about myself within a matter of days, I truly love my therapist! She listens, doesn’t judge, has been incredibly helpful, and she’s funny too! My kind of gal. I’ve done in person therapy in the past with no real luck. Jamie Vander Velden however has blown me away already. Hands down worth every penny to be able to talk to her! I would highly recommend her to anyone.
