Paola is a great listener. She helped me to see my problems in [a] different light and place the right weight on them. I do not want to sound cheesy but she really helped me change my life for the better. She showed me mechanisms, which I can use, in my day-to-day life to cope with situations that beforehand would have made me feel depressed and helpless.
