Lorie is so real! I appreciate her so much. She makes me look at myself and the way I think things through in ways I could not get to without her. I feel like I’ve made a lot of progress and just having the option to reach out to her and have my maintenance type of therapy has been wonderful. I really do feel like she’s always there in case something like a crisis happens or just checking in. She’s wonderful!
