Tressa Arebalo is a great therapist and has been very helpful in the small amount of time I have been seeing her. She has utilized many different things to help and has listened thoughtfully to my issues.

Tressa was and still is a great help. No nonsense approach yet listened openly and never taken sides if and when I talked about my personal/ family issues. She never told me to do things but always gave options and her honest opinion. I look forward to working with her in the future and I know you will do the same.

I have never had such an attentive therapist as I have in Tressa. She almost immediately knew my personality and what I needed. She provides me with the therapy that I need and I feel extremely safe with her. She is amazing!

Tressa has been very helpful over the past few weeks. She is very responsive in the discussion section of this website, and she offers plenty of practical worksheets that have helped me. I've only had one face-to-face session, but it went well. I'd recommend her to anybody looking for a therapist that offers practical help and easy-to-digest exercises.
