- “Janet is very easy to talk to and understood my needs and goals and helped me achieve them! Thank you very much!”
- “Ms. Sohmer is a great therapist. I know finding the right therapist is trial and error. I have had my fair share of therapists in the past that were not a good fit for me. Ms. Sohmer seems to understand me better than previous therapists. I have only had two sessions, however, have already come to understand that the way I feel is normal and valid. For a while I felt that the way I was feeling was not normal from conversations I would have with my girlfriend.”
