“My daughter and I were a little nervous for the session - this is her first time in therapy. I was surprised to see how much my daughter shared, it was nice to see her perspective and then share my own. I do think she’s a little scared to share too much but I feel confident that she will open up more. Kasi asked a lot to me and her and invited our family to join if they wanted later. I’m excited to continue our journey with her as she made everything very comfy and offered a lot of different coping mechanisms. ”
