“Jessica was welcoming and informative. I had a few questions about the practice and about therapy in general and she was able to answer all of them. She was a great listener, and allowed me to freely ask questions and discuss my therapy goals. She was encouraging but not pushy, and made me want to continue working in therapy and on myself.”
