As someone who has tried different therapy options, I dont think I have ever met an individual who genuinely listens. Shirley is compassionate; I always feel my feelings are valid after a session and she has given me hope. Thank you, Shirley.

I’ve only had a couple sessions with Shirley, but I can already tell she’s going to change my life. She’s so easy to talk to, she listens and gives feedback right away. One of my favorite things I like about working with Shirley is how she helps me organize my thoughts and feelings, and how we’re going to work on them. I look forward to many more sessions!
