Vanessa is such a warm person and because of that it's easy to talk with her. I feel like I am talking to a friend or relative. I love how she gets me to see myself. The way she allows me to discover who I am and can be is so encouraging. I get so much out of our sessions.

I appreciate her patience, she made the process easy and allowed us to speak what ever was on our minds, she kind of gave us hope that this can and will work. Looking forward to our next session.

I chose this provider because Vanessa's introduction said that she deals with family conflict and grief which are the two issues that I am currently going through. I need help navigating these obstacles in my life. I think that I will definitely benefit from my sessions with Vanessa.
