I felt very comfortable opening up to Tawana. She aske the right questions and already had me fill out some homework to better understand me.

I always appreciate that nothing I throw at Twana is so insane or ridiculous that she isn't prepared in some way to help guide me forward, rather than falling backwards or even being comfortable staying where I am on my journey. She brings great outside the box resources to our conversations. I like that she is structure enough to ask me for updates on things we have previously discussed, but also adaptable to understand my reasons for being here are different sometimes from session to session.
