Shirley has been absolutely wonderful! I signed up for therapy because I was leaving my second long term abusive relationship. She has been so incredibly kind and has offered great insight and ways to help manage my anxiety. She has provided me with a safe space to discuss my feelings and past traumas. She makes me feel heard and truly cares about her patients. I really can't say enough good things about Shirley. She has really helped me through this entire process and I am very greatful for her help.
