Dr. Mark Maxwell, Couples Therapist
Jussi is an outstanding therapist, especially working with couples. Jussi and I have worked together often in treatment teams, co-therapy and case conceptualization. He has a gift and I would highly recommend him!
Michelle Adams,
Senior Producer
Andrea is a special soul. Her strength is her heart and passion to help people navigate life’s struggles. She’s the first person I turn to if I need someone to talk to about something that’s troubling me. She’s a great listener and has a way of helping me navigate an issue until I find my own answer.
Ryan A. Jones, LCSW
I highly recommend Anne. We worked together at Sharp’s Trauma program, and I appreciate how she fosters a non-judgmental sense of safety and how her approach is tailored to each individual’s unique needs. With her energy, expertise and compassionate demeanor, Anne effectively helps clients achieve greater peace, enhance their relationships and grow their sense of self.
Dana Kasper, Ph.D., LPCC
Anne demonstrates excellence in her clinical work by providing targeted treatment resulting in positive therapeutic outcomes. Her intellect drives her superior work in mental health care that is combined with warmth and kindness. It is without hesitation that I recommend her brilliance and natural gifting as a therapist with others.
Diana M
When I found myself overwhelmed with work, projects, and family, Kristy was there to provide the exact support that I needed. With her calm, steady, and open nature, I felt secure in talking to her about all that was going on in my life, my feelings, and the tasks that I needed to complete. Kristy changed the way I approach my life and I will always be grateful for the support I received.”
