Toni has been really helpful and so supportive. I really appreciate her therapy style and open and honest feed back. She has really gotten me through some things pretty quickly into our sessions. It was not hard to get comfortable talking to her. I’m glad we paired up.

Toni has been an ear when none seem available. She speaks when necessary, gives insight when needed, and listen always. I have loved my time with her and cannot recommend her enough.
