After the 
					birth of my first child, I was referred to Rae Stern to 
					address the issues compounding my postpartum depression. 
					From the very first conversation, I knew from hearing her 
					voice that I finally found the right therapist. She 
					scheduled me within the next 48 hours, and I was immediately 
					comforted by her welcoming demeanor and positive energy in 
					her office. I found it very easy to share my past and 
					discuss the current situations weighing me down, and I left 
					each session with a feeling of progress instead of 
					hopelessness. Since adolescence, I've visited numerous 
					psychotherapists and so many times, I've left walked away 
					from other therapy sessions feeling vapid and confused. Rae 
					has provided me the tools and the thought processes to 
					conquer my personal obstacles and today, I'm achieving my 
					goals and living a happy, productive life.  There is now a 
					true sense of self-actualization thanks to Rae's help and 
					her inspiring words of wisdom.

				Working with 
				Rae was the best decision my husband and I made. It's hard to 
				find a therapist both spouses connect to. While we were only 
				there for a short time, there was so much accomplished in our 
				sessions. We always left with a sense of success as a couple and 
				as individuals. Now that we have moved away we are still using 
				skills Rae had taught us and are truly happy. Rae clearly 
				understood our goals and helped us reach them in just a few 
				months! Many therapists keep you dangling on a string for years. 
				We are truly blessed to have found and worked with Rae.

				I began seeing 
				Rae just after my husband and I separated. She helped me to face 
				issues that I could not face alone. I no longer blame myself for 
				the events that led to my divorce. I have been able to pick my 
				head up and think about the future in a positive light. Without 
				judgment, I am able to freely tell her my deepest thoughts and 
				worries. She continues to encourage me to take the "next" step 
				each session and to live life again. She refuses to give up on 
				me. Rae's guidance has allowed me to open a new chapter in my 
				life. -DLG
				
				I have been a 
				patient (by choice) of Rae Stern for a couple of years. I find 
				that she is open, proactive and truly cares. She has helped me 
				with learning to help myself. Rae Stern has assisted me in 
				finding that life is not hopeless. She has supported me with 
				learning and maintaining coping skills. Rae and I laugh together 
				which has been a huge release for me. I have learned to look at 
				situations differently and know that not always being "right" is 
				best. From the bottom of my heart, thanks for finding your niche 
				and doing it well Rae.
