Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Top notch psychiatric care.
Dr Donna is a top notch psychiatrist. I can't recommend her enough. She has helped our family immensely. You will find a psychiatrist who looks at the whole picture before prescribing medication. She relates so well with children, teens, young adults. I am so thankful to have had her care.

Better insights, better life!
Dr. Kashani was able to provide a global perspective that simply made everything fall into place with my understanding of my situation, past, present and future. I’m excited to continue to learn and grow! She really ‘gets’ it and I’m so grateful for the insights.

Dr Kashani
Dr Kashani has exceptional skills to connect with young adults and get them to open up to her with their mental health challenges. This is always the first step in getting better. She is also very prompt in her replies and as parents, this gives you a great sense of reassurance and peace of mind that you have an expert on your side and that you are not alone. Highly recommended.

Amazing!
After struggling to find a good fit with other psychiatrists, I knew from the first session with Dr. Kashani that she was the one. Her professional and kindness made me feel at ease, and now 2 years later I can say she’s the only one I would trust to take care me. I’ve also referred several of my kids to see her, and can confidently say she’s helped our family thrive. Being able to contact her directly for scheduling and questions makes everything convenient and efficient. If you’ve struggled to navigate the system to get help with your depression or anxiety, Dr. Kashani is the answer you’ve been waiting for!

Excellent Provider - Compassionate and Practical
Dr. Kashani was extremely helpful in helping us diagnose and treat our teenage daughters learning+behavioral challenges. She established a rapport with our daughter almost immediately and quickly identified causes behind our teens struggles and a plan for us to improve things. She was methodical in the chosen treatment plan and follow-ups. She's great...I highly recommend her.

Excellent Physician
Dr Kashani obtained a thorough history which included so many pertinent things about my childhood I didn’t know were impacting my life. She listens well and was able to come to a diagnostic conclusion plus helped me implement a great treatment plan. I am healthier, happier and excited about my future.

Dr Kashani is the best in her field.
I saw Dr Kashani for a year and a half, prior to moving to a different state. As a teenager, Dr Kashani has always made me feel welcome and heard, with a safe and youthful attitude while still being very well skilled and professional. She has one of the brightest personalities I’ve seen in the medical field, while still remaining reliable and mature at all times. I’m bummed to be moving out of California, but I am so grateful for all of the care and help she gave to me, and to her other clients.

With Dr. Kashani’s knowledge of children, adolescents and adults, her ongoing consultation has provided an objective perspective toward estate planning and decision making for our children and young adult children to determine readiness for our family resources and the timing/ distribution. She is an invaluable resource for our children, helping shape fair and reasonable expectations based on each of their strengths and abilities into adulthood. Executive coaching, knowledge of family dynamics, teaching healthy boundaries, her positive and goal directed approach provides tangible and reasonable goals and expectations in the business and family environment. The positive and cheery interactions are appreciated as she clearly has the best interest of her clients in mind. Very appreciative of Dr. Kashani’s impact on our family and our family’s future generations.

I have been working with Donna for quite some time, through many ups and downs, and she has been an incredible help. Donna has made a very positive impact on my life. She always has an answer, a tool, or a strategy to offer no matter the issue. She is easy to talk to and is just an overall wonderful person to work with. I highly recommend working with her.

I have been working with Dr. Kashani for about 6+ years now. I started seeing her in high school and she has influenced my life in the most positive way. I always leave her office feeling so much more empowered and calm than I did coming in. She has given me so many tools, strategies, analogies, and knowledge about my emotions and behaviors as well as the others around me. I have recommended Dr. Kashani to my friends, family, and even my hair dresser because she is truly the best psychiatrist I have ever seen. Other therapists have not come close to the caliber and quality of therapy that she has delivered to me. I would highly recommend anyone that is having a hard time or is need of mental health services to contact her because she can help you tremendously and in ways that you never thought you needed.

Having seen multiple therapists before Dr. Kashani, I never felt I got the help I needed until working with her. She made me feel understood, but also educated me so much more than I had expected. She helped me determine the root of my issues, and gave me tangible goals and strategies to use to work through them. After a year and a half of working with Dr. Kashani, i feel more confident in myself than ever. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommend!

When Donna started to work with my son I immediately knew everything would be turning around. He is bright but was not doing even close to his potential in his high school studies. She quickly diagnosed the issue and started a comprehensive plan that turned everything around. She has stayed with him as his doctor since then and he is now almost finished with his masters degree in a very challenging field. Along with being brilliant and amazing at what she does Donna is also a very caring and personable doctor who relates extremely well to teenagers. You will love working with her!

Dr. Kashani is brilliant and changed our son's life. We sent him to another doctor before we luckily found Dr. Kashani. (The other doctor only seemed to care about the money he was pulling in. His office was shared with other doctors with a packed waiting room which was like a revolving cattle call and 15 minute appointments. The kids and parents all looked stressed and miserable). Our son was facing academic and bullying hurdles in middle school and high school, but Dr. Kashani always came up with the right solutions for him to handle them. She made him feel completely comfortable discussing whatever life was handing him and is still doing the same in his senior year of college with his relationships and future endeavors. He is happy and thriving. He's on the honor roll in a tough college pursuing his dream job, has a healthy relationship with a wonderful girl and has made many friends at school. Dr. Kashani has helped our entire family and we are forever grateful.

Dr Kashani has been working with my daughter, now 19, for the last 3 years. Both my daughter and I were immediately at ease with Dr Kashani starting with our first meeting. She is engaging, easy to talk to, insightful and one of the smartest people I have ever met. My daughter enjoys talking to her and feels completely at ease to discuss anything.
