“G went above and beyond her duties as a counselor. She was so helpful and understanding. She was so flexible with helping us schedule appointments if we needed to change the date or time she made it work so everyone was happy. She was so encouraging and we absolutely enjoyed our time with her! She is very understanding and gave great advice that worked well for our family. My daughter absolutely loved her! She really enjoyed having her over because she would play or color with her. She helped me with getting section 8 papers. We loved her service.”
