My impression of Sybil and her relationship with her clients is that Sybil is caring and compassionate. She is concerned with details and works hard to work with her clients in a way that shows only professionalism. I have known her for 2 years and spent time outside of the office with her at seminars. She has an even personality and is committed to her work.Lisa Siegler


I know Sybil through our shared training and experience in the Guided Music with Imagery program (GIM). As fellow students, we’ve gotten to practice our GIM skills on each other for the last couple of years. Sybil has a gentle calmness along with real depth that always makes me feel at ease when we’re working together. She’s very professional with any of her array of counseling skills. She is also very creative and can think outside the box. I also regard her as a wonderful friend.”Ginger Coffey, LPC, Charlottesville, VA

 

Thank You Sybil! I hope you know just how much I appreciate you and everything you are doing to aid me in a bountiful future and my dreams coming true plus helping me let go of my past and leaving it behind me. You have been a real answer to prayer and have helped me so much. You are an awesome woman and I pray for you-you deserve honor!” – Melody L.


Before I met Sybil, I was confused, depressed, stressed and was uncertain about how I had become the person I was. I decided to work with Sybil when I was at my breaking point. My pastor recommended that I talk with her. After working with her for a few months, I feel a lot calmer. I have more self confidence and I know what tools to use to battle my problems. I still mess up, but Sybil has given me the encouragement and support to move forward. Sybil helped me discover things about myself that will help me be the person God intended me to be. Also, my husband was able to come to a session with me and ask questions that helped him understand where I was in my life and how he could help me. I highly recommend you work with Sybil if you feel overwhelmed with life, if you are stressed so badly that you feel like a rubber band that has been stretched almost to a breaking point, or if you are confused about life in general.” – Susan G.

 

I decided to work with Sybil when I realized life is not meant to be so much of a struggle. And, at the encouragement of a friend that I DESERVE TO BE HAPPY. Since working with Sybil, I now know that I am a work in progress, and I can see the glimmer of light in the distance! No matter how I felt, Sybil always had a calming voice and an honest smile that made me feel safe, accepted, and hopeful. She helped me regain my center and be strong again.” – Denise


I used to be misunderstood. I was already thinking about working with Sybil when a friend of mine encouraged me to just give her a call. I did. Now, I am more aware of myself. I am learning to understand, love, nurture, forgive, and accept myself better. She really listens and understands what I mean. She had me express myself through imagery and drawing – that was my favorite, and most helpful, part of working with her. If you intend to work on your spiritual, physical, and emotional self, give her a call.” – Stephanie B., LMT

Her council is always rewarding. – Walt Turpening

I can without hesitation recommend her for any position or task needing skills in empathy, healing, caring, and counseling.” – Mark Pavlin


Sybil is thoughtful of others and very organized. In my 30 + years of working with healthcare providers these two qualities do not always go together, so this sets her aprat from others in the field. Additionally, she exhibits common sense and business acumen. It has been a pleasure to serve on administrative boards with Sybil.” – Doug Fabick
