“I’m not sure why there are no written reviews on this doctor yet but I highly encourage everybody seeking for therapy to consider her. We just started but I have enough experience with therapists to say that she’s exceptionally professional specialist. 100/100 psychotherapist. Not the “ahh, it’s all your childhood trauma, you gotta start walking, doing meditations and reduce sugar, have a great day” kind of doctor, I’m excited to work with her.”
