Sirena offers a valuable perspective and I feel that she really listens to me. She values context and applies that context to my current situations. I enjoy talking with her and the fact that she allows me to work out my own thoughts while serving as a guide, and then seems to synthesize the info I have given her into an action plan. I would definitely recommend her!
