Ms.Sona has been Uber amazing to me. I’m just a few sessions so many weights have been lifted off me and I have learned so much. She cares about me being my best and healthy self. She so quickly got me to open up and be comfortable with her and I just love her for taking the time out to do that. I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist!
