“Elyse is such a great listener and makes me feel really comfortable. She asks me questions that I’d never thought of myself. It allowed me to view things from a different perspective and it has been very helpful. She has been patient with me and very attentive to everything I’m saying. I’m just very appreciative of Elyse and what she’s been able to do for me! Glad I leaned into this outlet and I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist!”

“So far I have nothing negative to say about Elyse. She is very caring and she doesn’t miss anything your saying. She would ask questions to something I said that I wouldn’t even put together!!”

I never received an email or any invite to join the virtual call. I called the office but was sent to voicemail. If the provider wasn’t able to make it a heads up would have been appreciated.

So far I have nothing negative to say about Elyse. She is very caring and she doesn’t miss anything your saying. She would ask questions to something I said that I wouldn’t even put together!!

I finally found the best therapist for ME!! I just want to give a shout out to Ms. Fernandez who took the time to meet with me & listen effectively about my current thoughts and life situation during our session. It’s been really difficult for me to find the “right” therapist who I felt comfortable opening up to & who really appeared to be genuine in their therapy services. I felt connected to Elyse all while she maintained a professional manner. Elyse’s tone & body language was really the selling point for me! I will definitely return for future sessions with her. I almost gave up on therapy but truly so thankful to have met Elyse & I feel confident that my mental health will improve with guidance feedback and support from Ms. Fernandez. THANK YOU, ELYSE! You’ve changed my life & perspective on social workers and talk therapy all together!

Elyse provided a very welcoming environment for me. She is an amazing listener and very empathetic. She made me feel very secure and like I can tell her anything without any judgement. She really took the time to her to know me and we worked together to come up with the best approach for me to handle my every day anxiety. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without her!!
