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.

She is the best psychiatrist I have ever seen. I strongly recommend you to see her if you are looking for an excellent psychiatrist or therapist. She is kind, receptive, courteous , trusting, and honest: all things you want your therapist to be. I have been dealing with ptsd (post-traumatic stress disorder). Using EMDR techniques I learned from my sessions, I quickly noticed an improvement in my anxiety and self confidence. I was very dull at the beginning of the sessions. She was patient throughout and gave me the opportunity to come to terms with some of the things that I was struggling. She was positive and helpful throughout. She helped me to discover in understanding some of the repetitive patterns with which I was struggling and establish a mature sense to come over. She always explained that the goal was self-care and everything we did was working toward me feeling emotionally healthy on my own, trusting myself and being able to take care of myself. She always makes sure you know that she cares about you as a person (not just a client), and that she is working with you.
