  • "Vicki has been such a huge help for me."

    She truly listens, and lets me speak freely, without judgment. She is so compassionate and kind, but also finds a way to help me see what I need to improve on, without making me feel bad. I am so happy to have connected with her.

  • "Vicki Hart is a great listener."

    She hears what I’m saying and then helps me figure out how to deal with difficult situations or problems. I always feel like she understands me and how I feel and responds accordingly. Furthermore, she reads up on topics to be able to help me better and celebrates with me when something positive happens. Overall, I am very happy with her as my therapist.

  • "Vicki Hart is the best therapist I've ever encountered."

    With her knowledgeable and kind guidance I have experienced tremendous personal growth in areas that have been holding me back for decades. I highly recommend Vicki.
