I’ve had rough experiences with therapy before but Michelle Curry gave me hope. She is one of the kindest people I’ve met and shows unconditional understanding. I am forever grateful for the impact she’s made on my life.

Very caring and supportive as well as having many options to have the session. She is also very flexible with scheduling, so having sessions are not an issue.
