Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Misty Spencer. 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.

Misty has been extremely helpful with a variety of things from organization, to taking on responsibilities, being truthful and kindness. Counseling with Misty has helped our overall family dynamic, dealing with peers and so much more.

I have had misty as my therapist referred to by teen counseling and I am incredibly grateful for her support. She is an exceptional listener who creates a safe and non-judgmental space where I feel truly heard. Her ability to listen deeply and understand my concerns has been invaluable.
Misty offers sound and thoughtful advice that is always relevant to my situation. Her guidance has helped me navigate through various life challenges with greater clarity and confidence. She has a compassionate approach that makes me feel supported and empowered to make positive changes.

Her dedication to her work and her genuine care for my well-being are evident in every session. I highly recommend misty to anyone seeking a compassionate and effective therapist.
