Client Testimonial-BL
"Dr. Agosto is an incredible therapist that worked with my mother and I. I'm in my 30s and my mother is in her 60s. Dr. Agosto was able to make us both feel very seen. heard, and related to and she was able to help us move past 30+ years of difficult dynamics that we had previously not been able to sort out. My relationship with my mother has literally never been better thanks for Dr. Agosto!!"
"My two teenaged children have been working with Almira for about a year. They both expressed that they appreciated her willingness to meet their problems head on and not minimize their feeling and frustrations. One of them is non-binary which has created another set of challenges. Almira has handled that very well and is always respectful of their individual preferences. I would highly recommend Almira to anyone needing a listening empathetic ear."
"I immediately felt at ease when I met Almira. She's very attentive, and genuine and I look forward to our next visit."
"I have been to a lot of therapists, but had a hard time finding the right fit. When I met Almira, I felt comfortable right away. It was easy for me to open up and I never felt judged. She is great!
"Almira was the light I needed in a very dark time. After losing my Father, I thought I would never recover. I reached out in a last effort to regain even the slightest bit of hope back. Almira is so kind, understanding and professional. Without giving me the “it’s going to take time” speech - which I SO appreciated. I can’t say enough or thank her enough for helping me hang on. Highly recommend Almira!"
"Therapy is hard work, but when you have a therapist that you can trust is a huge deal. I found Almira really helpful, she is a good communicator, listens attentively, she is open-minded, and I always felt safe talking to her. Almira also helped me to identify my own felling, thoughts and be aware of how my body was responding to these. I thank her for her work because I was able to make some peace that I did not have before therapy."
"Almira provided me with the therapy I needed. I can't thank her enough."
"Dear Almira, thank you for being my wonderful long-running therapist! Thank you for helping me through my funks. You're a shining example of how someone can help others, and I hope you aid other clients with the same care."
"Almira, thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything! You really have taken the time to listen and guide me. I wish you all the happiness in life."
Client Quote=This is what self-discovery sounds like!
Ms. Agosto is 1 in a million. She’s very patient, empathetic, sympathetic and she is a good listener. She knows her job and I have progressed since I started my therapy with her. She’s very knowledgeable and always available. Thanks so much Almira. She’s on time.
Almira was always prepared and did frequent check ins as we dove deep with my personal issues and concerns. I highly recommend Almira and wish everyone support in mental health.
Thank you so much for your help! Thank you for listening and caring! I am glad I found you!
Almira-words can not describe how much I have enjoyed meeting/working with you! You listened so deeply, allowing me to get my thoughts out before you answered. I felt you truly understood my feelings. I am forever thankful.
