I appreciate how her intake session was very helpful at holding space and listening while I was able to emotionally release. I’m looking forward to see what else we can delve into since I’ve barely started on this arc. Thank you.

I have been to several different therapists throughout the years (generally would have to switch because my job requires travel for extended periods). Of all the therapists I've had, I've found Holly to be the absolute best. I have never had anyone be able to read into the details of my feelings and dig as deep as she has. She helps me see things I didn't even realize about myself or my life. She's helped me tremendously with my grief and depression. I look forward to our meetings every week. She knows her stuff and I'm thankful we were matched.
