"I met with Kathy Callahan, LCSW, on and off for three years. I was seeking a motivating life coach and counseling! Initially, I was impressed by the fact that she was trained at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Where I grew up. She has ongoing post graduate training at Harvard, U of Pennyslvania in the latest, research based therapy skills, methods. What I like about her is her warmth, positive energy: incredible ability to listen and remember what I share with her from week to week. She doesn't take notes during sessions like therapists I have seen in the past. That can be distracting during a session. She will give you her undivided attention. I have referred Kathy Callahan to several people who are pleased to know her as a caring and effective therapist. I contacted Kathy during a time in my life when I suffered from general anxiety, worry, never ending grief and writers block! She specializes in working with creatives like myself because she understands. In September 2011 I lost a brother and cousin who were fire fighters saving people on 9-11. Callahan made a short biographical film, that was commissioned by Bruce Springsteen, about a deeply profound true story that Callahan, Terry Magovern and Bruce Springsteen shared. "Mystery Of Faith and Intention" On You tube and premiered at Ridgewood NJ Film Festival in April 2014. I discovered that she is the recipient of a very prestigious annual national award for her work. Being Irish American I was impressed. 'Top 100 Irish American's of the Year Honoree' Irish America Magazine. Ms Callahan works with artists and writers empowering them to find their voice, tell there story and write a book, do stand up, paint... That says a whole lot about Kathy Callahan, Wayne, NJ"

"I started seeing Lashone Arnett about 1 year ago. She required an initial screening before I was able to schedule an appointment for the first time. I had appointments weekly for about 6 months, then I reached a level of security within myself that I felt confident enough to face the world with some of the new tools I learned during our sessions. Mrs. Arnett is very easy to talk to. She sets a calm tone and atmosphere in her office. It is safe to say that therapy requires building trust, Mrs. Arnett is very big on protecting her clients and their safety zones. I was drawn to her as a therapist because she specialized in Christian Counseling which is what I need for my lifestyle. 6 months after ending my sessions I decided to start check-ins monthly just for mental maintenance. It has been an awesome fulfilling experience. I would recommend Lashonne for anyone who is seeking a healthy environment to express themselves and their experiences. She believes in taking the necessary progressive steps towards your recovery. "
