Client Reviews

Here are some comments made by clients about their experience in therapy:

“Karen listens to what I say. She is personable and friendly.” - Client

“I don’t feel judged. Karen helps me to think for myself in a safe environment. It makes me want to be vulnerable.” - Client

“I remember going into my first session with Karen that I felt hopeless and stuck in my situation. All I could think about is how the World was moving on without me and I was repeating life without meaning. I was waking up just to keep my normal body functioning but would go to sleep feeling like it was just another day in a mundane life that I didn’t feel I belong to. During the session, Karen listened to me, offered some ways for me to understand my emotions and let me put them into words. I thought, I’m not sure where this is going but I have no other option so continued to work with Karen. Immediately after, it just felt good to be heard and not judged or feeling judged by anther person.”

“Karen understood the cultural background that I grew up in and her approach came from a point of understanding and not speculations. My previous two therapists prior to Karen had different approaches such as trying to set short term goals for me which made me feel worse when I was not completing those goals. My next therapist had a tough love approach that told me that I was doing wrong and what I could do to change. Karen instead helped me understood why I was feeling the way I was and help me come to terms with trauma, self-confidence, and even failing.” - Client

“The advice I would have is that everyone can benefit from therapy but not everyone will have the right therapist that they can connect to. I would say I am the lucky few who have met the perfect therapist for me in just 3 tries. I would also suggest to trust the process and give each therapist a few tries because you don’t see change immediately but only when you look back can you see the progress you’ve made. I didn’t understand the method but every month, I kept getting comments from my significant other who notices subtle changes. By the end, I was so proud of myself that I couldn’t contain my excitement about how far I’ve grown.” - Client

“I like the balance in our sessions- I get to share but I also get to hear feedback. I like that I get practical tools and it’s not just talking.” - Client

“It was life changing.” - Client
