Janine is one of a kind. She is a truly professional, kind, and encouraging therapist who has already helped me create great progress in working towards my goals. She is very client-focused, encouraging me to lead the sessions in a way, and makes sure all of my goals, concerns and questions get addressed in a timely manner. She presents to appointments prepared with my history, punctually and remembers details. I am truly grateful for her impact upon my self esteem so far.
