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.

My boyfriend and I began seeing Rich for couples counseling in 2017. From the very first session Rich had welcomed us, creating a safe space for us to open up and work towards a better future. I enjoy the style of Richs counseling- all three of us are active in the discussion. Rich adds his own life experiences, too. There had been numerous occasions outside of therapy that I used Richs advice. My boyfriend and I have a stronger foundation for marriage thanks to Rich- I am forever grateful.

I came to Rick at a critical time in my life where it was filled with uncertainty and indecision. I never cared to try therapy as I was sure I could work through my problems alone. Rick helped me become more clear focused and open to myself in a compassionate and thoughtful way. It's hard to imagine my life without Rick's help now as this last year has been one of the best I've ever had. His guidance and encouragement gave me insight to pick my path in life and made me a better person.

Stay away from this doctor. Didn't show up on very important family saving appoitment. Left couple with "open wounds" just because "other people already waiting". Poor time management skills. Didn't care about his clients.
