She's very informative and I feel very comfortable discussing my life concerns with her and I get a lot of positive feedback so it's really good

She sent me a treatment plan that clearly was not meant for me because it mentioned helping me to speak to my husband in a different way but I am not married. So I don't know if she sent me someone else's or what. But that was very off putting.

Ms Ronena really listens and gives feedback that encourages me to see the positive viewpoint over the negative. Dealing with chronic illness, makes daily tasks difficult and hobbies less than enjoyable. Our sessions energize me to stay on track to complete tasks and celebrate wins throughout the coming week.
