(*Names changed to protect client confidentiality)
Lisa is awesome. She gave me so much confidence on how to navigate the difficulties in my relationships. I feel like a new person in so many positive ways. I use her tips and advice daily and even share so much of it with others. I’ve been to other therapists in the past and Lisa by far knows how to get to the heart of struggles with compassion, a sense of humor, and intelligence. It was like talking to a friend who you know will tell it to you straight, had your best interest in mind, and will also give you sound advice on how to face major issues and get through.
