Testimonials, continued

** I came to see Breanna after learning of my parents divorce. As an adult child, I was unprepared for the emotions and grief i was experiencing. Breanna equipped me with the tools I needed to better understand and navigate my emotions and handle the changes to my family. I will be forever grateful for her insights, kindness and the countless lessons I have learned through therapy. It truly has been a trans formative process and Irene was an amazing coach, providing direct feedback and helping me to focus on what I could control and the priorities I have in my own life. Thank you Irene! ~Lisa

**My wife and I had hit a rough spot in our marriage with communication being a big problem among other things. We found Caitlin and she helped us work through a lot of the problems we were dealing with and helped us learn how to effectively communicate with each other. ~ Jason & Shannon

**After having a difficult year with relationship boundary issues and lack of focus on our relationship, we came to see Irene to get us out of the cycles of anger and resentment that we would let build between each other. After just a few quick months she was able to give us the tools and ideas to help get our marriage back on track and moving forward. ~Eric & Alicia

**Prior to seeing Irene; my daughter, husband and I were seeing a different therapist. She was frequently distracted, and it felt like everything was blown out of proportion. I left sessions feeling defeated, dejected and often utterly hopeless. I consider myself to be an optimistic person, so this started to concern me and we decided to find someone else. I thoroughly appreciate Irene’s practical and hands-on approach. She gives you the tools to learn more about yourself and your relationship. The insight gained and self-awareness is empowering. Irene is easy to talk to. She is fully present and attentive during sessions. She has a calm and welcoming disposition, but will tell you exactly like it is. While not always easy to hear; it is necessary for personal growth. I am very grateful that we found Irene. ~Ruth

**Breanna has a way of getting right to the issues by addressing them in a very direct and practical way. She is great at making emotions seem logical, but not dismissing them in any way. She is easy to talk to, can find ways to relate personally to many situations, and give examples of her own experiences. Her office is very private and welcoming. She is a therapist who is not interested in just keeping you coming back every week. Her goal is to work through and move past issues, and actually have progress and closure. I highly recommend Irene. ~Judy

**When I began therapy with Irene, I was at a very low point in my life and my relationship. Irene has helped me realize my strengths and build on them. She gives straightforward advice that you may not want to hear, but need to hear. With her help, I have been able to make changes in the way that I view others and myself. She has helped me view myself in a positive way, which has impacted my entire life. In addition to helping me individually, Irene has saved my relationship. I was on a downward spiral with my fiance, about to crash and burn. The individual and couple therapy that I received with Irene has allowed me to change the views I have of myself, my fiance, and our relationship. Thanks to Irene we were able to continue planning our wedding. My relationship has never been better and we haven’t been happier. I truly believe that I have Irene to thank for all of it. ~Alexis & David

**I came to Irene for therapy because of problems I was having with my family, spirituality, friendships, career, self-image, and unhealthy habits. I can honestly say that after having seen two different therapist previously, Irene is the only one who has been able to help me help myself. Her no-nonsense attitude and focus on the present is exactly what I needed to become more assertive and feel less like a victim in my life. It seems to me that her purpose is to help her clients reach their personal goals by giving them the tools they need to do so. She’ll make you work hard, but when you start to see real changes in your life regarding problems you’ve had for years, you’ll realize it’s worth the work. I highly recommend her! ~Margie

**Irene is amazing at getting to the core of my issues. She is very easy to open up to and I appreciate the direct nature of her approach. ~ Deb

**Irene promotes a safe, comfortable, non-judgmental atmosphere while maintaining professionalism. She is able to adjust to meet her clients’ individual and unique needs. Irene was a major influence in helping me view life more positively at a time when my life felt most stressful. I have highly recommended her to others, and will continue to do so! ~ Elizabeth

**Irene’s fresh insight and techniques will give you the tools and methods you need to take control of you anxiety and fears. Having been to previous counselors and getting nowhere, I felt more confident and encouraged at the end of every session. ~ Julie

**Being strict and direct was an approach that worked for us. Irene did not sugar coat anything, nor did she play favorites. She was very fair and non-judgmental. By including personal anecdotes and other examples to our session made it easier for us to understand what we needed to work on. Each time we walked out of a session with Irene brought us one step closer to saving our marriage. We are grateful to Irene for helping us. If it wasn’t for her, we would either be divorced or living in misery in the same house. ~ Liz & Ben

**Therapy has been a true life saver for me after I experienced the loss of my husband suddenly. I reached out to Irene when I was in the darkest part of my grieving and she gave me the tools to allow me to grieve while building my life back again. Irene’s honest approach and optimism is what I was looking for in a therapist! I have referred several people to Irene and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. ~ Christine

**Irene has helped me to stop hating myself and to start truly changing my life. ~ Kay

**I started therapy with Irene because I was at a dead end in my career and unsure about my future. With a history of depression, I found myself unable to make a clear decision about my next step, and many aspects about my future were overwhelming. Within a few months, Irene helped me to identify what I was really wanting in a career and lifestyle. Her matter-of-fact advice and examples from her life have helped and continue to help me identify what I really want out of my life and her encouragement has helped me act on each step. ~ Mary

Don’t keep putting your relationship on the back burner!
