She is a thoughtful, open, straightforward therapist. I know meeting with her will give me the support and information I need without compromising professionalism.

Juanette was lovely. She gave me lots of tools I can look to on a regular basis to keep my mental health and sobriety in check. She is very thoughtful and asks good questions. I would go back to her if need be.

This is my first time doing therapy of any kind. One of the things I love about Juanette is that I feel heard and respected. She sees me. She has been patient with me from the first day I met her. She communicates with me on time if they are changes in schedule. She is phenomenal.
