Tyesha is a very compassionate and resourceful therapist. She truly listens to me and shows respect for my opinions and input. When I came to her with the idea that I might have ADD, she provided me with resources and encouragement for how to have a discussion with my PCP. This response made me feel that myself and my opinions are highly valued. I feel very confident and secure about our therapeutic relationship. It also means a lot to me to have a therapist who is a female and a person of color, like myself. Having this connection, I feel more comfortable speaking with her about my personal experiences, because I feel there is a better chance that she can understand and/or relate.
