I was made to feel at ease and that was good since I at the time was feeling pretty lost..my counselor was Marie and she seemed to be able to get to the root or roots of struggles I had been having, she really listened and she was able to help me learn how to work through some thing's and that is calming in itself instead of my mind just hitting a wall and she was a safe place to talk about any issues and I was able to learn more I think about myself to. Life can present thing's that sometimes you just need help to work through and Marie was a blessing for me. I'm glad to have found her office. Dorothy.

I didn't know how to effectively communicate with those that I love. My primary care physician suggested that I give them a try and I am so happy that I did! They not only diagnose, but, they give you tools to help you. I love that they help you to overcome. I highly recommend them if you want help to address and treat anything that can be affecting your true health and happiness in your life! I especially love my at-home treatments with my Euro Trainer machine. I love that I can be treated right in the comfort of my home by telephone when needed. I love that I can go into the office in person on a regular schedule, as every session is enlightening. I love the staff at the font desk too. They are warm and friendly, patient and kind. I have never had to wait in the lobby for my appointment as they keep to my scheduled appointed time. If this all sounds too good to be true, exaggeration is not one of my habits. My life is so much better now and keeps getting even more better. Thank you Cameron Park Counseling Center for everything!

I was in a true place of a crisis with my mental health when I reached out to Kristen to request…read moretherapy in this office. At the time, I was a student at the university where she teaches so I wasn't sure if she would consider it a conflict of interest even if I wasn't taking classes with her. She gave me the option to see one of her interns at the time, Jordan Holland. I immediately accepted the offer. I was truly desperate for help with managing and coping with my severe anxiety and mild to moderate depression. I ended up seeing Jordan for 5 years, even through the office location changing 3 times in the same general area. Jordan was so incredibly helpful. She helped me understand healthy boundaries, use coping strategies, and manage my anxiety and life stresses. She also saw me through my first pregnancy and let me bring my daughter with me initially when I was too nervous to be away from her but still wanted to be consistent with sessions. She helped me with adjusting to being a mom for the first time, especially when my anxiety caused me to be overly panicked about my newborn. I know Jordan has since closed her practice with the office due to having another baby, but I know without a doubt that the other therapists in this office are just as great. I would highly recommend them, especially for young women and children. They weren't contracted with any of the insurance companies that I had during that 5 years of treatment, but I don't regret any money I had to pay out of pocket. Thank you Kristen and Jordan! Your office changed my life for the better for sure!

Karen Juliet Reeves Marriage & Family Therapist Intern,…read more MA, MFT I spent dozens of hours looking for a counselor. I'm so glad that I found her. It is time that I let others out there know about an amazing therapist, Karen Reeves! I immediately felt comfortable talking with Karen. She really puts you at ease and makes you feel safe right off the bat. I have never met a more compassionate or empathic therapist, and I have been to a couple of them over the years! Karen really treats you with integrity and the utmost respect and immediately got us to open up and really peel away at the layers as to get to the bottom of life lo9ng issues. She got me through some really tough times of depression, bad attitude and anxiety. Karen is also skillful in dealing with relationship issues. Working with Karen was a transformative experience for me and I feel honored to have had her as a therapist! Also, her prices are VERY reasonable, which says a lot considering the incredibly high price of therapy these days. I wish I could give her ten stars!!!!

I highly recommend Brainspotting, it really does work, and I am so thankful for this center and the healing it has brought into my life!

Please be careful going into this type of treatment. My counselor Veronica did not respect my…read moreboundaries. Her agenda was clear at the beginning of the session when I told her to focus on the rape and she insisted I deal with long past childhood trauma. I said no. She didn't listen. I was left with feelings of despair and anguish for at least a week. In July 2019 I was strangled and raped. In another instance, Veronica had the audacity to ask me if the strangulation was a "thought" or a "memory." In hindsight I should have told her it was a FACT. Why was she questioning me about my credibility anyway? I'm just saying, as a trauma victim you are very vulnerable and your boundaries should never be ignored due to the therapist's own adgenda. Unacceptable. Beware.

I don't usually write reviews, but I feel compelled to write this one because Teresa has truly…read morechanged my life. When I first started working with her, I was in the middle of the hardest, darkest decision I've ever faced: leaving my narcissistic ex and all the fear of what would follow. I honestly didn't know how I was going to make it through. Teresa was the one who helped me find the strength, my voice, and my worth when I didn't believe I had any left. She is not the type of therapist who just sits there and repeats back what you've said in clinical jargon. She listens--really listens--connects the dots, identifies the patterns you're repeating, and then gives you actual tools to work with. She has this massive binder, filled with handouts and worksheets on everything you can imagine--organized by behavior, diagnosis, and pattern--and she pulls from it when something fits. She gives book recommendations, resources, and real-world strategies that I could take home and apply. Every session felt like progress, not just venting. What sets Teresa apart is her dedication. She's not lazy--she genuinely loves what she does, and it shows. She's constantly reading, learning, and keeping up with the latest research so she can bring fresh, informed perspectives to her clients. I always felt like she was giving me her best, not just "checking the box." She is warm and kind, and she remembers the smallest details--things I said months back that I had forgotten myself. But don't mistake her kindness for passivity. She isn't trying to be your "friend." She will challenge you when you're falling back into unhealthy habits or patterns, and she does it with honesty and compassion. It's never about shaming--it's about holding up a mirror so you can really see yourself, and then showing you how to change. In the past two years, I've changed more than I did in the previous four decades. Teresa has helped me understand the true meaning of co-dependency--beyond the oversimplified definition we all think we know. She helped me see that my 14-year relationship was toxic and abusive in ways I hadn't been able to name. She helped me recognize that my ex has a personality disorder, which explained so much of the distorted reality and self-blame I had been living with. She also taught me that I could rewire my own brain to undo the unhealthy patterns I thought were "just who I was." I used to label myself a people pleaser, someone who couldn't say no. Teresa helped me see the deeper issues at play and gave me the tools to start putting myself first. She's helped me quiet the inner critic that once ruled my life, and, maybe most importantly, she's taught me that I don't need to be perfect. Mistakes don't mean I'm broken--they mean I'm human. I can honestly say I would not be the person I am today without her guidance. If you're looking for a therapist who will show up, who will care, who will challenge you, and who will give you the tools to actually change your life--Teresa is that person.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Phone: 916-671-4395…read more These are the credentials listed behind Lori's name however I just know her as Lori. From the very first time I stepped into her office in late 2014 to this very day I felt comfortable; as comfortable as any one person could be, discussing the circumstances I had needed to talk about with a neutral 3rd party for some time. I also felt that I could trust her which I still do. I feel it's important to note that Lori does a range of therapeutic methods within her Roseville office one of which is EMDR (Eye movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing). This is not an easy type of training to locate and for anyone who may be suffering and living with PTSD and has locked so much away within their conscious and subconscious mind and cellular tissues, EMDR has the ability to tap into it. It takes time just like any other form of therapy but I felt that since I had a hard time locating a provider of it I wanted to put this out there to pay it forward. I've thought about writing a review on my greater than 1 year experiences with seeing Lori for some time but to the sensitive nature of the "why" anyone would seek out the help of a "mental health" professional I decided that if this review helps another seeking a female therapist who has been trustworthy, provided a safe place for me to work out and thru some issues and who has always been kind and compassionate yet firm in her actions and speech then its worth putting myself out there. She has helped me immensely. There are several mental health providers and therapists which practice within this same East Roseville office. Psychiatry as well as therapists which makes seeing multiple doctors and the like more convenient. There is a restroom which is public use and located in the outdoor corridor and requires a key to access which only adds to the sense of security and safety of the area. Her appointments have always booked up quickly so don't be surprised if you have to wait a month or two to get your new patient appointment but you're emailed your intake packet in advance and fill it out electronically if you like sending it back to her prior to your appt. Return visits can be booked in advance at the end of your visits which ensures you can receive your therapy as often as need be. Lori books her own appointments and does her own insurance billing which for me has worked out well as I don't have to deal with another stranger for these things. There is a cancellation fee if you don't cancel an appt. within 24 hours but that's all disclosed within your registration packet.
