Mrs. Shirley is awesome to me she is like family and I am proud to know her.
Shirley was very calm and fair in her assessment of our marital situation. We came to an agreement to spend less, save more and we should have less financial stress. She listened and gave us insightful advise.
There isn't anything that she needs to improve on. She is my first Therapist, and I actually look forward to talking to her!
I appreciate Shirley’s honesty and time. She is helping me realize that I need to take care of myself.
