I had a great initial visit with Ms. Steinhauer. She was very well informed, kind and articulate. We already have a plan of action and I look forward to our next meeting.

Helene is a compassionate, friendly middle age woman who i chose due to our proximity of our ages, plus an excellent resume.
Though this was my first session, mostly intake information, we both sensed that we can and will work well with continued therapy.

Meeting with Helene Steinhauer was nice and enlightening. She was very attentive to what I said, and tried to make me feel comfortable the whole time. Her questions were thoughtful and made me think about things I hadn't in a long time. All and all it was a very good meeting and I look forward to working with her more.

My therapist (HS) was extremely helpful, understanding and supportive. She encouraged me to look for the good, appreciate my strengths and to stay strong. She helped me through a traumatic experience and gave me a sense of hope and peace. Thank you!
