Rilda is so personable and helpful. I clicked with her from day 1. She does a great job at helping me feel at ease and teaching me how to navigate and manage my emotions. She is awesome.

For this being my first ever experience with any sort of therapy, Rilda has made it one I will never forget. She has shown me it is very much okay to express the emotions you’re feeling and even if you may have done wrongs in your past, they are not who define you now. If I had not started my sessions with Rilda when I had, I genuinely believe I wouldn’t be where I am today, and it’s all thanks to her. I know she likes to say therapy doesn’t work until you fully embrace it and allow it to change you, but Rilda was the jumpstart for my change and I really hope she continues to be the jump start for many others.
