Working with Kaila as my counselor has been both a healing and growing experience. Kaila is a great…read morelistener and is very patient through many ramblings, and I am quite prone to rambling. Being able to openly discuss my faith and relationship with the Lord with Kaila has been very refreshing. While being able to speak with a pastor is a good thing, and speaking to family is also good, being able to speak to someone who is entirely removed from my life about my various struggles in my walk with Christ has been massively helpful and challenging. On another note, being able to speak with her about the challenges of fatherhood and being a husband, and receiving both validation as well as questions meant to challenge my perceptions has helped me grow as both a father and husband. The Lord is certainly using Kaila where she is, and having her as a counselor is truly a blessing.

I cannot say enough good things about Arolyn. I've known her for over a decade and have worked with…read moreher on and off during that time, and she is deeply trustworthy, grounded, and truly exceptional at what she does. She is easily one of the most skilled clinicians I've worked with, and arguably one of the best in the area. I drive nearly 3 hours to see her, and it is absolutely worth it. In just a few sessions, I've experienced more meaningful progress than years of traditional therapy combined. Her approach is precise, intuitive, and highly effective in a way that feels both clinical and deeply human. She also has techniques that have provided immediate relief for symptoms like tinnitus, which I had been struggling with for a long time. If you are considering working with her, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has genuinely been life-changing for me.

I also appreciate that her office is clean, professional, welcoming, and safe. I would highly recommend Arolyn! If you work with her and do what she recommends you'll see awesome, positive, strong results.

I caution anyone who is considering hiring Christine Golden at OC Psychology Center. Ms Golden…read moreexacerbated my children's anxiety they were experiencing as a result of a divorce and teamed up with my ex-wife to advocate on her behalf throughout the case. By the time I figured out that she was contributing to my family's destruction it was too late. She and the children and my ex had become emotionally attached and the court viewed that as a positive thing. She regularly reported me to CPS for emotional and physical abuse and each investigation concluded that there was no evidence to substantiate the report and that the Ms Golden was mis-informed. My ex then used Ms. Golden's unsubstantiated reports in family court to restrict my custody time. Yes, you are guilty until proven innocent in family court, something my ex's attorney (also female) knew quite well. It was a well orchestrated attack on an unsuspecting father, using and manipulating my children for their own emotional and financial gain. I never knew humanity to stoop so low, all under the guise of 'the best interest of the child' as advocated by family court. When discussing one particular report of abuse, Ms Golden told me "the truth of [my son's] allegation doesn't matter. What matters is what [my son] FEELS the truth is." This confirmed my suspicions developed over the preceding 6 months. The actual truth is that Ms. Golden had no experience working with children in a high conflict divorce, she had no parenting experience of her own, and she was unlicensed at the time she recommended weekly therapy. Her therapeutic experience is with young adults suffering from trauma. She applied this experience to my children (8 and 9) and offered separate 'parenting sessions' to me and my ex, totaling 4 sessions a week. I quickly opted out recognizing her 'therapy' only as a scam and a way to further separate me from my children. My ex on the other hand used Ms Golden masterfully to obtain the 'expert' testimony she needed to obtain full custody. I find it horrifically ironic that in my case the people making accusations of abuse (Ms. Golden and my ex) were same people stoking chaos and subjecting my children to the chaos that created their anxiety to begin with. And rather than help my children understand that they have a loving father and their relationship with him is important, Ms Golden did the exact opposite. Ms Golden obviously lacks the therapeutic, ethical, and parental foundation that any well meaning parent would seek for their child's psychologist. Your child's mind is sacred ground that should be protected against therapists like Ms. Golden.

I reached out to Dr Montgomery regarding my son who is suffering from anxiety. We live out of town…read morebut was willing to drive to find a good doctor. Dr Montgomery called me the same day and spent 20-30 mins discussing my son and learning about our situation. After spending that time with me he explained that it made sense for us to see someone closer to us given it would be ongoing care. Despite that, he sat on the phone with me and helped research doctors in my area. After we hung up he sent a follow up email with resources (doctors, books, etc). I can tell he is a dedicated and caring doctor and if we lived closer I would definitely come see him!

Please proceed with caution if you are considering seeking any advice or guidance by this woman…read more She will act very attentive the first session and you will be duped into thinking she cares and can help. Ms. De Francisco cares about helping herself in terms of adding to her bank account. She had me coming on a regular basis when I sought her services during a time I was struggling. I wish I had went on a shopping spree or took a vacation rather than spend copious amounts of money with this woman. I was vulnerable and under her "spell" so to speak. She convinced me we were doing "intensive work" but really it was either her nodding her head or giving me ridiculous advice. Just one of many snippets of bad advice.....she suggested to relinquish parenting decisions over to my sister as it was her opinion that I wasn't strong enough to handle things with my pre teen child at the time. Mind you, she also knew my sister which is how I was even referred to Jennifer and my sister was vying to get control over my estate. It's all very messy and convoluted. So word of the wise, be selective when it comes to seeking help in difficult times.

We met with Dr. Mazaheri and she quickly made us aware of the diagnosis and we began treatment. The turn around has been nothing short of miraculous, our son has more friends, better grades and our relationship with him is what I had always hoped it would be. I can't begin to thank you enough Dr. Mazaheri! I highly recommend her if you're looking for a therapist!

One of the things I'm truly most grateful for in my life is the treatment I received from Dr…read more Mazaheri. I went to her with severe anxiety and depression and with incredible knowledge, years and years of experience with different age groups and a heart of gold she completely changed my life around. I got extremely lucky that she was the first therapist I went to, but I know most of the time that's not the case. So I'm writing this review to tell you if you've gone to other therapists and you're about to give up because you feel like you can't open up to them or that they are judging you or just don't understand you.. DON'T because Dr. Mazaheri is the exact opposite of that. Every session I couldn't wait to talk to her because she made me feel so comfortable that I could easily open up. I was able to tell her things I couldn't tell other people in my life because I could trust her and I respected her advice so much. I counted on her for a few years to guide me towards the right direction in life and she was with me every step of the way. I went from being in a very horrible place in my life to now having a incredible career, wonderful personal life and I can say I'm happier and healthier than I've ever been mentally and physically! You don't find doctors like her everyday and for me personally my mental health is extremely important and I was in the best hands! When I stop and think about how far I've come in life she's always one of the first people to come to my mind because I honestly don't think I would be the same person today if I had never gone to her. Goodluck to you :)

We've done counseling before and enjoyed it, but Susie is another level of professional. I loved how structured each session was. Susie was always prepared to have us talk thru something, there was always a game plan! She would give us a practical tool to help us do so to where we were able to effectively say how we felt while the other person listened, and roles would switch. My husband and I have used these tools any time there's conflict. Susie modeled how to empathize with my spouse, which was helpful for me. I was able to vocalize what was upsetting me because she offered a safe space and asked me the important questions. We would keep going to Susie forever if we weren't moving out of California. Invest in your marriage, in yourself! Oh and I was even able to bring my 14 month old when I couldn't get someone to watch him. She had age appropriate toys for him to play with too - that was wonderful!!!
