Loved having conversations
Lovely person, very attentive and personal! :)
Maya was very intuitive, picked up the essence of the issue quickly, did not get distracted, was understanding and sensitive. Lovely to talk to her. :)
A really kind person ❤️
Very helpful and good at analyzing problems
Great help and listener!
One of the best chats I've had here. She was pleasant and helped me feel a little bit better. Definitely reccommended 😁😁
This listener was a good listener. I have figured that I'm not the one to be listened to but rather someone to be talked back to so I have to find the right person for me yet but I dare to bet this listener can help a lot of others!

Even though we come from different places, M uses humor and intellect to build a relationship and transform the conversation so it goes in unexpected directions.
So kind, patient and very funny as well! Felt like talking to a friend more than a volunteer.

Great
he makes you feel better
Thanks
very helpful and replied right away. The person gave very kind and helpful advice. An excellent listener and advisor.
She was very helpful and a great comfort. Got me right out of my head and into the real world!
If i could rate her any higher, I would...
dang you oppressive stars...what if i think shes worth six stars? maybe ten?
YOU CANNOT CONTROL OUR OPINIONS WITH YOUR STARS
ahem, well what can I say...
As you can probably guess, she's an amazing listener. Cross that
She's not only an amazing listener, she's an amazing conversationalist in general. She has this gift, she knows exactly what you need, be it a pat on the back and a metaphorical cup of hot cocoa, or a nice and firm yet genuine wake-up call to let you understand just how ignorant you've been. Don't deny it. You need someone to tell you you've been doing it wrong, but then you need that person to tell you that it doesn't matter because being wrong is better than being ignorant. The answer's almost always right under your nose, and she's a great person to calmly point that out. She'll cheer you up to no end, and probably has more wisdom and experience that you'll ever earn in a life time. Maybe that's an exaggeration, but you'll certainly feel like you've been a fool all your life after she helps you see the light. Whether you've been living under a rock and its your first time on this site, or if you've been here ever since Dumbledore was in diapers and have talked to every person possible, she's the listener to choose. Not to mention she's open minded and won't judge you for anything you've done (trust me on this one)
In a nutshell, she's just great. Don't miss out. You'll probably regret it.

DISCLAIMER: she is awesome
very great listener, friendly,kind and professional. Helped me in my first time here . and made me see thing from a better angle. And gave me one hell of advice which i wouldn't have thought about ever.
Finally i would definitely recommend this one listener for anyone with problems here.
Lovely person awesome to talk to .
Amazing amazing amazing person. Loved talking to her. Beautiful heart. Marvelous humor. Her positive attitude and high spirits are contagious
Put forth a lot of effort to communicate with me, introduced themselves so we could be on a first name basis, seemed genuinely interested in listening and understand my situation. Would recommend, especially if it's your first time on this site.
She's a problem solver
Responded in a manor that was unconventional but was exactly what I needed. Fantastic.
Very empathetic listener...love her humour... shining personality.
This person is a gem. Her character shone through and Im glad I talked to her.
Friendly empathetic and kind
Listend to my problem and helped me overcome my fear.
