Review shared after session 1 with Lynda

May 16, 2026

I thoroughly enjoyed my session with Lynda, Lynda was very open , understanding, and fully attentive while also being honest and providing guidance. I left the session with actionable tasks I could look to better cope with my situation and felt really refreshed after speaking with her. I look forward to continuing to work with her.
