Janet is the best therapist I have had in my entire life - she is absolutely brilliant and empathetic while helping me work through life long issues - no therapist has ever been able to keep up with my lifetime of trauma and relate it to present circumstances better - I would recommend her to anyone and everyone, she’s incredible
