Nancy took the time to listen to what kind of therapy I need and has adjusted to fit my needs

Written on May 27, 2025 after therapy with Nancy for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and eating disorders

Nancy has provided a good mix of listening / letting me talk and providing advice or suggesting ideas for how I can more effectively communicate and cope with my anxieties. I never thought I would look forward to therapy sessions.
