What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Some details in the notes are not in the correct reference of the conversation. I am repeating myself sometimes giving me the impression she is not listening to me.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Nancy is the bomb!! She is professional and knowledgeable about mental health including addiction recovery. Nancy has been great about helping meet my MH goals. She does an excellent job coordinating my care with my provider, Sarah Rings, who is also pretty bomb. Nancy makes me feel heard, validated, and advocates for me as well as for my care that I receive. She has also taught me a lot about some of the events in my life as well as how my thinking can impact my emotional state and overall MH. Sometimes she get me all up in my feels but I suppose I need that sometimes. She always assures I am emotionally regulated though before leaving her session which I appreciate so I’m not ugly crying all over da place. Nancy is ethical and has earned my trust which is a big deal for me. I highly recommend her but don’t be taking them afternoon spots because I need em lol. Jk. Nancy is great so is Behavioral health.

Nancy is a phenomenal social worker and therapist. She is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, and this is demonstrated through my continued work with her. She has a gentle way of challenging me and empowering me to meet my goals. I wholeheartedly trust Nancy and the services she provides me with. She is warm, compassionate, understanding, thoughtful, and has developed my full trust in her ability to provide therapy to me. I am so grateful that I have her as a therapist.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Nancy is hands down the best therapist I have ever worked with. She is knowledgeable, skilled, and clinically competent. Her expertise is evident. Nancy is Warm, honest, compassionate, patient, trustworthy, and easy to talk to. I struggle opening up and sharing personal details about my life with anyone really. Typically, I have not stuck around in therapy long enough to really work through deeper underlying emotional issues. I have a tendency to ghost therapy when things get personal, uncomfortable, or emotional. Nancy has managed to work her magic, keeping me engaged and consistently showing up, even when it feels uncomfortable or difficult. She gently challenges me in a way that supports real progress without judgement. Since working with her, I have seen significant improvement with my mental health. The only thing I wish were different is that she had more availability, though this speaks to how excellent she is at her job. I have never not been able to see her when needed though.

No. Because she was very rude about the whole thing it was my only second time going to see someone and my first time with her. And she was very rude and made me not feel welcome.
