I am very happy to have such a counselor. A woman that does not only have the educational knowledge and experience, but that can also share, help, guide and give a good advice about any situation from a daily life. Thank you very much! I'm so lucky to meet you

Makes me feel unbelievably comfortable, no judgement at all. Very kind, gentle, and patient. Doesn’t feel forced, just flows easy the way it should! A+ for my first therapist ever.

Gaye is a good ear to listen. I have only had a few sessions, but she lets you control your road. You decide what you want to talk about. Be honest with yourself, and her.

Fantastic. Very helpful!

Written on Aug 26, 2021 after therapy with Gaye for 1 month on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting issues, self esteem, and anger management

Gaye has been such a great help working through a few PTSD and social anxiety issues. She was also a wonderful ear to just vent and reflect on the minutæ of weekly life.

If you need someone to talk to, or have specific issues to work on, she is more than capable of navigating you through the forest.

I highly recommend her, and thank her.

I would still be with her if teencounseling.com were affordable...
