Report
A psychotherapy relationship is complex and unique. I am confident that Carly is able to honor this relationship with her contemplative thinking and dedication to social justice. She is compassionate in her practice, deliberate in her work, and facilitates change through thoughtful guidance. As a clinician myself, I would hope that anyone seeking psychotherapy would look for such qualities in a potential therapist.
