Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Dorothy Prior. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Dr. Prior actively listens and immediately picks up from where we recently left off throughout next sessions, which means she takes notes either mentally or physically, but I’ve never seen her write anything down. In addition, I know she is observing to see what I need/dont need. I feel comfortable sharing and we balance direction for our conversations, but its not all on me. I like that because I came for help. Im enjoying our sessions so far and I’m looking forward to the next.

I've been working with Dr. Prior for several months now and it's been wonderful. Not only is she an attentive listener, but she remembers even the smallest details about things I've mentioned. She also offers me the tools I need to work on myself outside off our sessions, which feels very collaborative. I consistently feel seen, heard, and understood by her.

Dr. Prior is a very good listener . She gives you suggestions on things discussed to achieve what you would like your life to be. This allows you become the best self you can be in life. She follows up to see how you are doing with goals you set for your self. This allow you to see where you are and where you need to be. She stresses the need for self care.
