I had a really great session. She took the time to read my intake form previous providers didn’t read the form and I had to retell everything so the sessions feel not as impactful. She walked me through her first impressions, but also listened to see if that resonated with me as well. I’m looking forward to working with her to find the best treatment plan

Although I didn't consider medication management upon being referred to Charlene, she was so helpful and caring about what my needs were and gave me some very helpful insight on how I can manage my imbalances. Looking forward to implementing her recommendations :)
