What People Are Saying

 

“Serena at The Psych Assistant has been a huge help to the set up and continued improvement of my data collection and record keeping processes in Halaxy. She has streamlined processes with templates and reduced my daily workload substantially. She also consulted with me along the way ensuring I was informed, confident and happy with the outcomes. She has also been available and responsive to my ongoing support needs when they arise. I could not have got my private practice up and running so quick and efficiently without her support and I am so very grateful for her thoughtful, thorough and professional guidance.”
