Kathleen has been a huge help to my healing journey. I’ve been able to open up parts of myself and understand a lot of things that I know I needed to work on thanks to her. She gives such great guidance and I would recommend her to anyone else that needs therapy!

With the limited amount of time given I'd say, Kathleen Hill, was able to listen to my concerns and respond to the immediate issue even though there's been a lifetime of patterns at play. She was very helpful in helping me determine necessary and reasonable boundaries in a work environment.
