I previously went to counseling for a different issue and felt like the therapist didn't understand the focus of why I was there. I haven't felt that way with Stacia. She has kept our focus on what I feel I need to work on, and I feel like in the short time I have spent working with her I have made significant progress.

I love her approach and what she points out to me. I know she's a great match for me. She is direct but still has a gentle touch. I love that she is straightforward, honest, and knowledgeable. Really looking forward to learning more from her!

It's hard to even put into words how much Stasia has helped me through therapy. I was broken and so depressed. I feel like a different person now, so happy and my life has changed 1000% for the better. Thank you so much Stasia ❤️
