Testimonials
“I love my therapist! I’ve referred family members and co-workers to the practice. After COVID it was almost impossible to find an in-person therapist. I was able to get my initial appointment quickly and am thrilled to have connected with Celeste. The office staff are friendly and courteous. The environment is professional. I can’t say enough. The Best in Virginia awards on their walls are legit. They are the best I’ve found!”
