What People Are Saying About Me!

I’ve been going to DBT classes at A New Day Counseling and seeing Alyssa Hewiston for about six months and the services have been excellent. The classes are very interactive and though-provoking and the way they facilitate promotes authentic and vulnerable sharing. Alyssa is excellent and has acute discernment in how to help me. They offer crisis calls to your therapist and Alyssa has been very prompt and helpful in getting back to me and has really helped me to progress in my life. I’ve been to many therapists I didn’t feel like were effective and I went to one other DBT class at another practice and this one is much better. Ashlee Thurston is also a great facilitator. I think Jamie the founder did a great job setting this practice up and hiring great people.

I’ve been coming here for 2.5 years and they are the absolute best. Their DBT groups and their individual counseling have been the best care I have ever received. I recommend them to everyone I know. The owner Jamie is truly dedicated to ensuring everyone here receives the best treatment for their individual needs. She is absolutely incredible and the therapists she employs are top-tier. There are not words for how much I appreciate Jamie and her whole team here; they have truly changed my life.

I’ve been seeing Jamie for several years now. I can honestly say I wouldn’t be alive without her knowledge and expertise. She has showed through her commitment to continuing education and dedication in expanding her practice that she truly cares in offering the highest level care.

Her practice reminds me of the quote above the entrance to my church

“No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you’re welcome here”

I feel safe as QTPOC and with trauma that many have determined isn’t traumatic “enough”
