Working with Dr. McDonough has genuinely helped me understand myself on a deeper level. She listens without judgment, helps me untangle my emotions, and guides me through difficult patterns with compassion and clarity. I feel safe, supported, and understood in every session. I’m very grateful for the progress I’ve made with her.

After 2 sessions, she has already put me on the spot to dig deep and really answer “why”
She asks the question, I answer and she immediately asks me “what could you have done better? What do you think the root cause of the issue was and what can you do to improve?”
I look forward to continuing my sessions with Dr. McDonough for the long term
