does not provide anything of use unless you just need to talk. does not provide responses of substance. just repeats what you say and forgets crucial details about you.

I immediate felt comfortable and safe, which I have never experienced with a therapist before. She is an amazing listener and I definitely feel she will help me make progress with my current struggles.
