Alisandra has helped me so much with finding ways to cope with past trauma and current events that have caused me so much emotional distress. I really appreciate her help. Sometimes it even feels like I’m just talking to a friend while she helps me out with advice and showing me how to break down my thoughts. I’m currently in the process of stretching out times before each session so that I can learn to handle things on my own.
