“Her experience alone has me listening and interacting. I am open to her exercises that’s making me think about how to cope if issues arise or trigger me. She listens and I believe she is truly concerned about my mental well being.”

“Mrs. Donna Smith is a great therapist! She takes her time to listen to you, she has a great personality and is very personable. She takes time to understand your problem, and she helps you find ways and strategies to help alleviate your problem. You just naturally feel comfortable talking to her.”

“Donna was born to do this!!!”

“Dr. Smith is a caring, uplifting therapist. She is supportive in and out of planned sessions. She is very flexible regarding methods of therapy and provides worksheets in a timely manner. She is patient even if we are halfway across the world from each other! I always look forward to our sessions together.”
