Client Stories

“I was overwhelmed by the pressure to figure out my life, and I didn’t even know where to start. Dr. Assouline helped me slow down and unpack what was going on. She guided me in developing self-awareness, identifying my values, and taking small, thoughtful steps forward. Her warm, steady presence made me feel less alone, and her structured approach gave me something solid to hold onto. Therapy with her helped me grow in ways I didn’t expect.”

“Dr. Assouline helped me understand my social anxiety in a way that finally made sense. She offered a mix of compassion and clear direction—exactly what I needed. The coping skills she taught me (like exposure work and challenging my automatic thoughts) were incredibly effective. What made the biggest difference, though, was her genuine, non-judgmental energy. I felt completely accepted, and that helped me push myself further than I ever thought I could.”

“After my second child, I was drowning in postpartum anxiety and guilt. Dr. Assouline never minimized what I was feeling—she made me feel completely understood from day one. At the same time, she gave me strategies that worked: breathing techniques, ways to respond to intrusive thoughts, and ways to reconnect with my body. Her warmth made me feel human again, and her guidance helped me rebuild confidence in my role as a mother.”

“Dr. Assouline helped me through one of the most confusing, anxious times in my life. What stood out was how she combined deep empathy with real structure. She taught me how to manage racing thoughts and challenge my inner critic, while always making me feel seen and safe. Her calm, thoughtful presence and the practical tools she shared changed the way I relate to myself.”
