I saw Althea when I was going through a time that I didn't think I could pull myself out of. My pastor had referred me and I am so thankful that he did. She was so loving, kind and patient with me it was incredible. And believe me I am not an easy one, I am sure I told her more than once she was wrong. haha. However, lucky for me, she wasn't. Today I can tell you, if you are hesitating...don't. Thank you Althea for giving me my life back. I will always be grateful for you! Kathy
