We did not enjoy our couples sessions. After I decided I did not want to see her anymore, because I…read moredidn't agree with the advice she was giving us. We even left the place arguing after the first session. My Husband went back to her multiple times and altered the way he thought. He became MEAN, unreasonable, and just not the person who he was when we went in. I tried again with her and she refused to see us again as a couples even thought he agreed to it. It RUINED our relationship. We had to seek a new therapist to re-help us for our old issues and NEW ones. Thankfully the new one got us back on a great path to where I can understand him more and he can understand me more without us getting defensive. My husband and I started asking around about her and we aren't the first ones to experience this either. Now, she maybe some peoples style but she was not what we needed. Please do your research before booking.

People say not every therapist is the one for you and it's very important to make sure you've chosen the right one who will understand you and guide you to where you want to be in life. I was blessed to find Tonya, the perfect one for me, the very first time I had enough guts to reach out to a therapist whom I thought MAY be a good fit for me. Tonya certainly was it for me, and we began our journey to success. She was never too impulsive to speak over me, tell me what I should do, nor try to control me in any way as a way to protect me from what she may see as a potential mistake... she let me make my own mistakes, which was very important for me in my personal journey... she helped me to own my thoughts/behaviors, understand the intentions behind it, the root cause of it and how to look at it differently in order to ultimately, transform my way of thinking, coping and my relationships with people, which spanned across all aspects of my life. There was always a strong level of comfort and security during my sessions with her. Tonya is extremely knowledgeable about codependency, addicts, victims of addicts and relationship issues, and helped me to understand myself more than I ever have in my entire life! She allowed me to go through my cycles without making me feel guilty for regressing, which enabled me to persevere. After every session, I would take home AT LEAST two new perspectives or "ah-ha" moments, which will continue to resonate with me for life - most of those moments came from the well-constructed, thought-provoking questions she would ask me (after I've been blabbing for probably 15 minutes). She was always patient with me and very aware of my transformation (although I could not see it sometimes). She read me so very well and paid close attention to detail. I would not be where I am today physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally if Tonya was not a part of my life when I needed a therapist the most. She deserves a HUGE recommendation for anyone struggling with codependency, relationship issues, as well as all others she specializes in. Thank you, Tonya, for everything you've done for me. You are a gifted and special person. - Lauren :)

I have worked with different therapists over the years and I have never experienced this level of attunement before.

She is amazing about slowing down conversations and helping to tease out the nuances of what is being said. I feel understood. My partner feels understood.

Dr. Major specializes in clinical psychology and psychopharmacology, which was helpful as besides being an excellent therapist, he is extremely knowledgeable about medication management. Dr. Major helped me not only navigate the tumultuous emotions my separation was inducing, but also helped me work on things that allowed me to feel more empowered as a suddenly single adult, a parent, an employee and as a woman. My children also received treatment from the other two doctors in the practice, Dr. Kelly Bolger and Dr. Rebecca Smith. I cannot begin to express how caring they were and how integral they were in helping my children negotiate the complex world of divorce. They also helped us in dealing with some academic concerns, that led us to a previously undiagnosed learning disorder, which has been life-changing. They are in-network with BCBS and conveniently located on Jackson right off St. Charles.
