testimonials

I just wanted to THANK YOU for all you did with our daughter. A large portion of her senior paper was a letter to her younger (freshman self). It was very heartfelt and honest.
She told her freshman self to be confident when she asks to go talk to someone senior year.

She said is was the best thing she ever did for herself. She has worked hard (with a lot of support from you) and is looking forward to college. She is nervous but excited.

Thank you again. You were a lifesaver.

As a physician, I always want the best for my patients. Every single patient I have sent to Jennifer and her team has received great care. They are responsive and attentive to patients’ needs. If they are unable to help a patient, they help to guide them to someone who can.

Worked with Jennifer for many years and she has been instrumental in so much of the success and progress I have achieved. I am so fortunate to have found a compassionate intelligent therapist that positively challenged and supported me every step of the way.
