"I have found the safe space I've always needed with Betsy. I have grown immensely in our time together, particularly in the way I speak to myself. Betsy brings a gentle and compassionate energy to our sessions and it's shown me how I can be kinder to and more understanding with myself. Our work focuses on trauma, and Betsy consistently holds the right amount of quiet and questions for me to explore where exactly my fears and blocks are coming from. For the first time, I do not dread going to therapy. I know that no matter what arises, we will handle it together."
Read More“I have seen several other counselors in the past, but I had not made much headway. It wasn’t until working with Tess Davis that I really started to make progress. Tess is compassionate, a great listener and a calm and comforting presence. Additionally, she brings a wide range of skills and techniques to our sessions. For me, a therapist that uses researched and evidence-based therapy strategies is critical, and Tess Davis is well versed in the science of therapy. Through our sessions, I have gained new insight into my past, learned valuable coping strategies, and have improved self-confidence and awareness.”
Read More“As a sex worker, I am apprehensive about finding with new professionals to work with. Reaching out to Radiance Counseling made the uncomfortable process of finding a new therapist seamless. Tess immediately made me feel seen and understood. I admire Tess’s professionalism in many ways, but number one - she is constantly researching, exploring new techniques, continuing her education, and trying to understand her clients point-of-view. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who is down-to-earth, understanding, and wholehearted”
Read More“As my supervisor, Jess helped me discover who I was holistically as a therapist-- and she fostered an environment where that exploration was part of the supervision journey. Jess approaches supervision with curiosity, openness, experience, and wisdom, and she created a safe space for me to explore my own solution before sharing her input, which helped me confirm, change, or round out my thought process or decision. I would leave supervision with clinical clarity around my caseload and with hope and excitement about the counseling profession. I can’t recommend supervision with Jess enough- because personally, I know I am a better therapist because of it.”

She has helped me develop a better and more trusting relationship with myself and has provided me with countless coping strategies that I continue to use long term. I see Kate regularly on a schedule whether I feel like I "need" it or not, and I always get so much out of our sessions. She provides a safe, warm, and welcoming space.”
Read More"Kate has been an understanding, reliable, and useful resource during my many transitions over the last year. She has made me feel comfortable in counseling, and has given me several tools to ground myself (such as meditation techniques and mindful exercises). I feel so lucky to have found Kate!"
Read More“I have suffered from anxiety for years, and it has manifested differently during different periods of my life. Kate has been the first therapist who has been able to address my anxiety with a psycho-spiritual perspective. Instead of trying to mask the intuitive and empathic traits that hugely make up who I am, Kate has taught me to tap into these unique facets of myself and incorporate them in my life in productive, realistic and healthy ways. Working with Kate has allowed me to embrace and understand parts of myself that I was previously taught to dismiss. I have a newfound confidence and love for myself and life after working closely with Kate over the past 8 months. I recommend her to anyone who is interested in understanding themselves through a deeply spiritual lens in order to lead a fulfilling, dynamic, and balanced life."

She has this incredible ability to make you feel comfortable and provide fantastic insight while maintaining the pace required for growth. Her genuine desire to connect with people and less conventional methods create a safe place that allows you to celebrate your wins AND battle your demons. It allowed me to be open and heal. That’s an incredible gift and I’m learning tools that through practice will help me be a better version of myself. She really took the fear and stigma out of therapy for me.”
Read More"I have been working with Jessica for a year now and feel a complete transformation from when I first met her. Through our work together, I was able to stop drinking and look at the reasons I drank in the first place. She has helped me come into my body and become more aware of my feelings and emotions. I appreciate Jessica's experiential approach to therapy, especially doing things in session that are hard, but always make me feel better by the end of our session. I am grateful for Jessica, and the compassion and non-judgement I feel from her during our sessions."

Through kindness, compassion, and creative methods, she has helped me dig myself out of the darkest place by empowering me to listen inward, live authentically, and trust myself. The work we've done together has been truly transformational, and I'm forever grateful.”
