Ivanna Colangelo, LMFT

Ivanna doesn't talk just to hear herself talk. She's a thoughtful listener who makes me feel safe to be vulnerable in her presence. I was initially a skeptic desperate for help -- Ivanna changed my life. I now have the tools to recognize and adapt to the triggers that used to send me in a spiral in my familial relationship. 10/10 - highly recommend.

I feel like Ivanna is the perfect balance between friend and professional. She is always so genuine and helpful.

Not impartial and very rude. I felt like I wasn’t heard only my husband. She even went so far as to E-mailed my husband behind my back after a session to complain about me. Don’t waist you money. There are alway 2 sides to any story and she doesn’t want to hear both sides. Watch out... our relationship has never been worse.

Barely spoke during our sessions; did not guide sessions to help address relationship needs. Did not offer tools or strategies to help us communicate better until we directly asked for something more; to which she then gave us a handout which we didn’t ever go over together or practice working through during any sessions. She also didn’t always seems like she remembered things from one session to the next. We were often having to refresh her on our needs/ concerns. She did not remain professional. At the last session / our last session: we were asked why we were paying her to come and argue when we could do it at home. ... I thought we were paying her to help us work through problems and guide us. But when she sits there and does nothing, says nothing, no guidance or support to help us then she is right. We shouldn’t be seeing her. Bottom line: Don’t waste your time or money- go to someone who will actually offer guidance.

Ivanna is excellent. She is so understanding and helpful. Very patient and always makes time when you need to speak with her.

Ivanna has helped me immensely during relationship ups and downs. She is a compassionate listener and gives straight to the point advice. I actually walk away with empowerment and understanding, and tools to help me improve myself and behaviors that impact my relationships. She is amazing. Highly recommend, A++

Barely spoke or asked questions during session. Was not able to remain neutral.
