What Former Clients Have Said
Trust is the foundation of good therapy. But don’t take my word for it! See what others have thought.
“Bridget helped me through the toughest year of my adult life. From an anxiety-inducing relationship to a sudden breakup to multiple levels of professional upheaval, Bridget was consistently supportive, non-judgmental, empathetic, and knowledgeable. She provided actionable tools and validation that continue to help me today. When I decided to try psycholytic-assisted therapy, she went out of her way to learn about the one I used so she could support me afterward.”
“Completing therapy with Bridget was bittersweet because I enjoyed the sessions so much, but I walked away with a stronger ability to self-regulate, more self-compassion, and more confidence.”
