I met Terry when I was in college struggling with an eating disorder.  I have now known Terry for over 2 decades and so many life events where I would call on her for her sage counsel and caring support.  She has seen me through the grief of my Mother’s death, fear when I was diagnosed and treated with breast cancer, the joy of finding my soul mate and the the trials of being a new Mother and juggling work with and child.  I don’t see Terry all the time, but what a gift to have someone who knows me so well and whenever I stop in I know I can get my head and heart realigned.

I had never been to a therapist before.  I was very nervous at the thought of talking to a stranger.  Terry made me very comfortable and at ease.  I am so glad that I reached out for help. What a relief that I did not have to go through my problems alone any more.

I decided to go to Terry Rifkin for therapy because I had so many relationship problems in all areas of my life; work, friends, family, boyfriends. I finally realized the common denominator was me!  She helped me to see that I had some issues in my past that I had buried that were having rippling effects on my  current relationships.  I’m still a work in progress, but I already am having more satisfying and lasting relationships in my life.

After my wife died everyone told me to go to therapy.  I didn’t see a need to, I was fine. Three years later I finally went to see Terry Rifkin. I wish I would have gone sooner.  I’ve stopped living in the past and I am now moving forward and optimistic about my future.
