"I saw Jerilynn for about a year and a half, and I feel so lucky to have found her when I did. I met with her during a time when my anxiety and self-esteem were major obstacles, and she helped me realize what changes I needed to make in my life. She was compassionate yet objective and provided constructive reminders when I needed them. Her office is warm and inviting, I always felt comfortable. I highly recommend!"
