There are not enough words to express how much Lisa Pringle has and still does help me to handle everything that life keeps throwing at me. She has given me so much knowledge and coping aspects that help tremendously. She is the best after failing with 3 other therapist. I know and feel comfortable with her to being honest and open. Never had that with the others I tried with.

The software is great for virtual sessions - it's easy to use and video/audio are always clear. I love working with Nan; I've worked with her on and off for years. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking help with sorting through and managing challenging situations. When life gets overwhelming, she is my go-to!

My provider really takes the time to hear what I have to say and not only listens to me and provides feedback, but also gives me support and guidance when I need it. She does an excellent job of putting things into perspective and giving me a different way of looking at things.

There are improvements that could be made to the UI/UX of the app itself which would make it more user friendly, but overall I'm very happy with the way Thriveworks is from a patient perspective. I could not imagine where I'd be without Melissa as my therapist! She. Is. Outstanding!!!!
