Very humble, very kind. Made me feel comfortable to share. Definitely recommend her.
KC
She had such a bright personality and was so easy to talk to. She is a great listener and made space for me to discuss the issues I wanted to but also was able to guide it in a way that allowed me to see the potential source of it much clearer.

I’ll admit, I was a skeptic when it came to therapy. I didn’t really believe talking to someone would make much of a difference, but working with Keerthi completely changed my perspective. Slowly, I started to see how powerful the process could be, as she helped me untangle thoughts and feelings I hadn’t even realized were holding me back. It has been one of the best decisions I’ve made, and I can’t imagine my life without it now.
