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.

Very professional and knowledgeable, felt understood and helped me work through some issues.

I recognized my post partum depression and am glad I got in to see a therapist sooner rather than later.

My son was showing many signs of anxiety and the school counselor referred us to Dr. Drake. She worked with him intensively over a number of months to assess the situation and work through the causes of his symptoms, and he is now back on track. We are so grateful to her for helping us figure out where it started and keeping us in the loop throughout.

Absolutely horrible. Don't ever go to her if your child need therapy of anytime. She will draw out therapy in terms of years without providing the parents a real assessment of their child. She believes that confidentiality with a 6 year old in therapy sessions is the best thing when parents just want to know what is going on. Sessions with parent rely on what the parents experience without going into what is actually going on.
