Stories of Success From My Clients 

Here at C.A.R.E, I see the holistic picture of an individual that is made from God’s image, and my desire is to see that image live to the fullest. Find out how I made a difference to the lives of many people by reading their testimonials.

“Val, what can I say? When I first met Val, the number one thing that was clear was that I could be myself! My husband and I had been to other counselors before but I was so concerned about what the person thought of me that I wasn’t able to be open at ALL. Not with Val, she related to me and to my circumstances and that to me is priceless!


Val was able to help me realize that I was holding on to so many things from my past and was hurting my relationship with my husband because I was bringing the abuse from my past into my home! I had moved away from an abusive fiance, verbal abuse from my parents but even though I had moved away from the abusers they still followed me home! I was carrying so much anger and resentment from my past that I thought that moving would solve my problems. Moving would help me heal,l. Moving would be the solution!! Nope, I was wrong! I brought all the negative into my house and I didn’t even see it! Val allowed me to see that even though I had left the past back in Manhattan, it was still IN me! Without her pointing all of those things out to me I would of still continued being angry but no more and I am so thankful for that.


Val, allowed me to cry, laugh, smile, feel and release everything that I DIDN'T KNOW I was carrying around but she peeled back those layers of hurt one at a time, day by day, session by session.


Val, thank you. I love you and you helped me to see so many issues that I didn’t even know I had. Thank you for everything!”
