Kaitlyn is such an amazing counselor. This is my first time seeing a counselor, and I am glad that Kaitlyn is my counselor. She makes sure that I feel comfortable. She sees the tangled situation very clearly and helps me sort out things with respect and encouragement.”

Kaitlyn is a joy to work with. I am grateful for her compassion and her insight.”

Kaitlyn is the best couples therapist I can imagine: compassionate, warm, smart, insightful, patient, tough when needed, fair and balanced. She has helped my spouse and me to better understand ourselves and our relationship and to be more honest with each other. We were both hesitant to start counseling and unsure how much it would help; now after 9 months and lots of meaningful growth and understanding, I only wish we’d have found her sooner.”

“I have had a great experience with Keystone! I have worked with both Kim and Kaitlyn and really feel like my mental health has improved with their continued efforts to help me.”

Kaitlyn explained expectations and outlined her approach clearly. She communicates clearly and is a good listener.”

“Going to counseling with Essie has been one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. When I am in my sessions with her I can feel that she cares about me and that she actually listens to me and hears me.”

“I have benefitted immensely from the expertise and acceptance of my counselor, Essie. She validates my experiences and encourages me to learn new coping skills and perspectives. She is very caring, compassionate, sensitive, and patient.”

“We are in family therapy with Essie. She has been warm, caring and wonderful guiding us through this process.”

“My skilled counselor has accepted and supported me through navigating difficult emotions and difficult topics. I feel safe to be vulnerable working with Essie. She is a gentle counselor with terrific insight and training on trauma experience and recovery!”

Essie has been awesome to work with so far and we’re just getting started! She’s educated, informed and overall caring.”

“We love Essie! As we are working through a significant life challenge, Essie has helped us make progress when we felt like there was no hope. Therapy isn’t easy and Essie challenges both of us in productive ways. She remains neutral as we process difficult events and affirms our feelings separately. As members of the LGBTQ community, she is affirming, non-judgemental, and provides a safe space for us.”
