We’re doing couples therapy with Annette. Annette keeps it real and helps us communicate with each other. She pauses and checks in when one of us is starting to get emotional or check out. She has a wealth of experience and we are getting a lot out of doing this work to make our marriage stronger.

Annette is professional, friendly, insightful, knowledgeable, and caring. I really appreciate all of the support she has been able to offer and how she is able to help my partner and I communicate. She’s given us activities to do outside of the sessions and tips for how to be better in our relationship which have been useful. I definitely recommend her.

Annette is amazing, she really listens and understands your point of view on things. She always gives the best advice and really made me discover things i didn't know about. She helped my relationship grow and push it back on the right path. So grateful for having Annette as my therapist
