Mary Allen is by far the best therapist I've ever had, and it's taken me a few to find someone who gels as well as she does. She listens and offers advice without dumbing things down or ignoring the other work I've already put in. She also checks in frequently and it really feels like she cares and goes the extra mile. I really look forward to our conversations- not just because they help so much but because she is honestly a lot of fun and so easy to talk with!!!
