Client Testimonials

I currently see Cristiana at SOS counseling, She has been my therapist for almost two years. My five year old had a lot of anxiety starting kindergarten, I of course expressed this during one of my sessions. Not only did Cristina give me techniques to calm my daughter down, she also immediately got my daughter into a session. She made her so comfortable in office, utilizing games and activities. During a session she made bracelets with my daughter, as they were beading she asked her questions about her anxiety. Cristina then showed my daughter how she can utilize the bracelet that she made to calm herself down during school (counting the beads, singing songs in her head while moving them back and forth”
Needless to say she genuinely cares about her clients, and I’m so grateful for her.

The SOS team and Cristina have been working with me for many years, I am forever grateful for their care, flexibility, and dedication to me and my needs. I have referred several friends to their practice as well who feel the same as I do. No other counseling center has provided to me the attention and care like SOS has.” GN Cristina is the best. Of all of the mental health professionals I have met, Cristina truly cares. The work we have done has been life changing for me and has provided me with some great “tools” I use daily. Thank you so much Cristina !!

I can’t say enough about the support I’ve received from Mrs. Serrano at SOS Counseling Center, Inc. She has walked with me through some of the heaviest periods of my life—helping me navigate difficult relationships, process the loss of a loved one, and explore complex topics, both personal and professional. Her guidance has been invaluable, especially when discussing the challenges that arise in the workforce and the political climate that often shapes our view of society. What I deeply appreciate is that Mrs. Serrano is always responsive when I need additional support, offering to schedule sessions as needed while maintaining professionalism and clear, respectful boundaries. The care I’ve received from her and SOS Counseling Center, Inc. has been a lifeline, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone facing tough times. Their support truly makes a difference.

Working with Janus at this counseling center has been a really positive and supportive experience. The environment is calm, welcoming, and professional, which sets the tone right away. Janus has a down-to-earth, approachable style that makes it easy to open up, and her therapy dog, Bear, brings an extra sense of comfort to each session. Since starting therapy, I’ve noticed real improvements in managing my anxiety, building self-confidence, and navigating challenges in both my personal and professional life. She’s also helped me strengthen communication and relationships with my family and spouse. I genuinely look forward to each session and always leave feeling supported and more grounded. -CL

He tenido una excelente experiencia con mi terapsita Luisa Villagomez. Antes de buscar terapia, me sentía muy deprimida, no podía dormir, vivía muy triste pues la vida no tenía sentido para mí. Gracias a la terapia con mi terapsita Luisa Villagomez he aprendido a armarme de valor y afrontar mis miedos a la soledad y he logrado salir adelante. He aprendido a valorarme y a ser una guerrera. Ella es una profesional muy empática y paciente, y siempre me ha hecho sentir segura y escuchada. Recomiendo sinceramente a mi terapsita Luisa Villagomez a todos aquellos que buscan apoyo en su proceso de crecimiento personal. Sinceramente

My experience working with Ms. Luisa has been a liberating and rewarding experience. Prior to the decision in seeking therapy, I was dealing with a range of emotions that I felt I could not get a grasp of and would ultimately end in emotional break downs. Ms. Luisa’s ability to create a safe and supportive environment made it easy to open up and explore my emotions. Her guidance has helped me develop healthier coping mechanisms and build more resilience. She has truly been a tremendous help in making sense of what can feel like chaos for me by balancing compassion and empathy with identifying themes, causes, and patterns of thought. Leaving each session, I feel more positive, empowered, and can feel my thought process changing for the better. I highly recommend her services.Sinceramente

My experience with SOS counseling center has been nothing short of amazing. My therapist is Ancquanetta M. She has always made me feel welcomed and understood. Her no-nonsense, direct approach has been the push I needed to get my mental health in order. She guides with grace, pushes and holds me accountable without taking my excuses, while still being nurturing. She is professional without being stuffy, and she makes sure that I leave every session, even the hard ones, getting a glimpse of my higher, better self. Everyone needs a person an “Ancquanetta” in their lives.

I’ve been seeing Janus Moncur for a little over a year now, and I honestly can’t imagine a better therapist—or a better therapy companion than her dog, Bear. From day one, she made me feel comfortable and safe to open up. She’s kind, thoughtful, and really listens without judgment. I always leave our sessions feeling lighter and more grounded. Janus has challenged my thinking and most importantly challenged my thinking to how I should react or the reasons why I react the way that I have. And then there’s Bear. What a total sweetheart! He has this calming presence that just makes everything feel a little easier. Whether it’s sitting quietly by my feet or offering a cuddle when things get tough, Bear is a real part of the healing process. Having experienced trauma in my past, in my experiences with other therapists, they have always wanted me to open up, dig deep and share those trauma’s. I have never had that experience with Janus, in fact we would touch base on some of those really difficult experiences, but nothing she has forced me to do as other therapists have done. The combination of Janus’s care and Bear’s gentle energy has honestly been life-changing for me. If Janus were to move to another location, I am following her & Bear. If you’re thinking about therapy and love dogs, this is the place to go. I feel stronger mentally, and emotionally because of my session with both Janus and sweet little Bear.

As I have been in therapy with Mrs. Villagomez these past months. I have found that her knowledge and communication skills have been beneficial to me as a client and a person. Her approach and demeanor mingled well with my personality which opened my eyes and mind to the points she was giving. In turn that causes my life to be better because of the therapeutic help I am receiving directly from Mrs. Villagomez.

Janus at SOS Counseling is truly a wonderful therapist. The time that I have spent with her has been very worthwhile. She has provided guidance, insights, and solutions while listening to my concerns. Coming to her office and sitting with her and her therapy dog, Bear, has been important in helping with my marriage and my family. I feel better equipped to handle situations as they arise because Janus has given me tools to use as I make decisions. I am grateful for her expertise!

I am a disabled veteran and I am nervous about going to new places. S.O.S counseling is a nice, friendly place. Tara always greets me at the front desk with a big smile. Janus is my counselor and she has guided me through the darkest times of my life. I am forever grateful. I got here through the VA community care program. Ask your primary care Dr. for a referral.

At first I was a bit nervous to speak with someone I do not know about my personal life. But on my first talk as the time went by, Cristina created a safe space for me to be able to open up and made it comfortable to talk about my issues. She has and is continuing to provide valuable tools and strategies that I’ve been able to apply to my daily life. Her gentle guidance helped me navigate challenging situations. She’s an excellent listener and communicator.I feel more confident and self-aware. I feel more grounded and connected to myself. I have learned to stand up for myself and create boundaries. I cannot thank her enough for helping me navigate this difficult period and on. I would absolutely recommend Cristina to anyone looking for a safe and supportive space to heal and grow.

SOS Counseling has been extremely helpful in helping me with my many issues . specifically Dr Janus Moncur. She was there for me after hours to deal with a death we recently suffered. I recommend them highly.

Working with Janus Moncur has been nothing short of transformative. At a stage in life where I thought I had seen and processed just about everything, Janus managed to open my eyes to deeper patterns, emotional truths, and tools for growth that I never imagined were still within reach. Her insight, compassion, and unwavering presence have guided me through some of the most complex and personal challenges I’ve faced, and she’s done it all with a rare blend of warmth, wisdom, and steady encouragement. Janus brings a comfort and safety to every session that makes even the most difficult topics feel manageable. She listens without judgment, challenges when necessary, and gently—but firmly—steers the conversation toward healing and progress. I’ve worked with others before, but no one has had the impact that she has. She has helped me not only navigate my problems but also rediscover parts of myself I’d long forgotten. I’m deeply grateful for Janice’s guidance and the role she’s played in my journey. She is an exceptional therapist and an extraordinary human being.
