Pilar knows what she is doing. She is highly educated, experienced and professional. Listens intently and provides direct guidance. I have wasted my time with mediocre "in network providers" in the past, every session with Pilar yielded benefits. I felt that we were in a "partnership" to help me get better. When I first went to Pilar, I was in terrible emotional pain, due to the break-up of a long-term marriage. I knew I was abusing alcohol but didn't feel I could cope without it. Pilar accepted this and helped me with my immediate concerns, which were real and intense, and she was available to help me address the alcohol problem when I was ready.
Pilar encouraged me to stand up for myself in ways I never thought I could. Her belief in my abilities and her example as a strong, vibrant woman helped me grow and change.
