Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ivelise Velez. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Ive is compassionate, understanding, experienced, knowledgeable, and also challenges my assumptions and gets me thinking about my situation. This last point is very important to me, and I appreciate it a lot, but she goes further than that: she also knows when to help me find rest and RELEASE from challenges, go easy on myself, and allow healing to happen without so much of a fight. I’m very lucky to have been matched with her.
