Mary has changed my whole life. I feel so lucky. I know finding a therapist is hard and…read moreinaccessible to many. So I just feel blessed that not only do I get the opportunity to be insured for therapy but that I found a therapist that has truly changed my life. When I first started to look for a therapist, I felt like there were no resources to help me find a good match. And I know finding a good one is like finding a good lawyer, it can make or break you. I have been seeing Mary for omg I think a year now?! And my God, has my life TRANSFORMED. The coping mechanisms, the way I look at my struggles, the way I communicate, my anxiety, I can't thank her enough. I know there are like doctor patients protocols but I always think about how I would literally invite her to my wedding and just always want to send her gifts to show her how grateful I am. I'm of course not perfect and still working on myself, but every time we meet up for a session now and I'm under stress, it doesn't affect me like it used to. She is SO validating but at the same time GIVES solutions!!!!! Like if I have a conflict in business or relationship, I share the conflict, and she not only teaches me how to cope and reframe it to better my emotions toward it - she will literally suggest an actionable solution. It's the best. I didn't know therapy also came with someone who's rooting for you to succeed in every aspect of life. It's so obvious how invested she is in her patients lives, and it's so obvious how focused and intentional she is in every session. Because it was so so hard for me to find a therapist for years, I hope this review helps others find her. I'm 25, live alone, in a relationship, and own a business. I struggle with major anxiety and at the beginning of our sessions with moderate depression. I can now proudly and happily say I am pretty average with anxiety now, don't have any depression, and working on loving myself more and learning how to re teach myself how to stand in my truth and not have my feelings and emotions so dictated by other people. I thank God for Mary, she has truly truly changed my life for the better. Not to mention, shes literally SO FUNNY. I literally always feel so light and fluffy after we speak, she can totally meet me where I'm at. She's so relatable and literally SO FUNNY I CANT STRESS ENOUGH her reactions to things we talk about truly make my day. She is seriously such a cool person. My best friend recommended me to Mary and every time her and we have a problem, we will text each other about the issue and we ALWAYS SAY "have you told Mary? She would know the answer" and on our therapy days we text each other "omg I see Mary today thank God" Seriously, I truly love her and just know my life wouldn't be what it is without her. You are truly changing my life Mary and I look in the mirror with so much love and gentleness toward myself now. I NEVER EVER thought that could be possible. Seriously. Words can't even describe my gratitude. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!

I've been sitting on this review and trying to figure out how to describe my experience with Austin. In a nutshell, indescribable would be easy to say, but also the immediate feeling right after the session. I can breathe a bit better if not easier, weight on my shoulders feels lighter. And overall feels like I am freed by the 'mental shackles' that has had its hold on me for a long time. Like a veil has been lifted and I am now more at peace with myself, zen like state which is something I thought I had but this is completely different. I am extremely thankful for the opportunity and I am forever truly grateful for meeting and crossing paths with Austin!

I learned about why I feel the way I feel. Afterwards I felt so much lighter. Mentally I feel better about everything. I would recommend this place for anyone with any kind of stress, trauma, pilikia. Come here! Austin is amazing!
