“I sought out Dorothy because I struggled with trichotillomania (hair pulling). The behavior started when I was ten years old and in my twenties I built up enough courage to realize I couldn’t manage it alone. I came to Dorothy very fragile and vulnerable and I was received with compassion and genuine hopefulness and consideration. Together we tried different exercises that I still continue to use and many of the things we discussed are imprinted in my memory as helpful resources and reminders of my inner strength. Dorothy has an intuitive sense that helped guide me to come to my own conclusions and perceptions of my experience, which significantly alleviated the shame and lack of self control I was experiencing. Her attunement to my needs surpassed my expectations. It was through this relationship that I felt a restored belief in myself and in therapy. I believe that if you are seeking out a therapist you will find Dorothy to meet you with where you are at and skillfully bring you to where you would like to be.”
