It’s been great working with Kristen. Shes always willing to work with my schedule and tries her best to be available. I’ve had times when I was feeling terrible and would write her a message. She would reply to ensure I’m okay. I feel very supported by her in my healing process. I would definitely recommend her for therapy.
