Ella has truly changed the way I move through my life and because of my own rewarding experience I…read moream posting this in the hope that it reaches someone who has been thinking about this kind of support and has not quite taken the step yet. I want to say one thing clearly, because I think it keeps people from reaching out. You do not need to be in crisis or carrying a diagnosis to benefit from working with her. Sometimes you just need help navigating the ordinary hard parts of life, and that is where she is at her best. What makes her different is that she meets you exactly where you are. There is no script, no sense of being fit into someone else's idea of what growth should look like. She listens first, really listens, and then builds around what she hears, drawing on hypnotherapy and other methods depending on what you actually need. She creates space for you to say the hard things out loud, and then she stays right there with you. That matters more than I expected. She offers the kind of objectivity that is almost impossible to find on your own or anywhere in your own circle, and you leave with practical tools you can lean on, not just the feeling of having talked it through. My progress felt gradual, and I have come to think that is the whole point. Ella never pushed me faster than I was ready to go. She just kept quietly opening doors, and one day I looked back and realized I had walked through several of them without noticing. Five stars truly does not feel like enough!

Dr Menije is warm, empathetic, has an amazing sense of humor, and really has her heart and soul in what she is doing. I am sure that the people she helps can say the same thing!

I first scheduled appointments with Dr. Pope back in 2009 for marital problems with my husband, but…read moreI was unsure of how I wanted to handle things. We only met a few times, and I didn't make any more appointments. I called her again in 2010 because things were getting worse with my husband. I met with her for this reason, and after he and I divorced, I continued seeing her. At this time, I was dealing with dating after a 23-year marriage. I remarried, and I contacted her. I stopped seeing her in 2017 because I no longer felt I needed her care. I started seeing her again after the COVID-19 pandemic, around 2022. This time, I needed to speak with her about my mother's alcoholism. We discussed this matter for several months; I am unsure exactly how long we worked on this issue. Once again, I told her I felt comfortable no longer meeting and stopped seeing her. Throughout 2023, my 88-year-old father, who passed at 89 in April 2025, called and texted me many times, telling me that my mom was verbally abusing him and neglecting him. He is a frail man in a walker. In October 2023, I was also put on administrative leave from teaching at a school where I have been teaching for 31 years. An aide with Autism lied to her student's parents, claiming I physically and emotionally abused their child during the 22-23 school year. I was also having marital problems/ family problems with my husband and his side of the family. I was under extreme anxiety and stress, and my blood pressure was high. I started seeing Dr. Pope again for all the above reasons. The last time I met or spoke to Dr. Pope was on our previous Zoom session on 3/14/24 During the 3/14/24 Zoom session, which lasted only 20 to 30 minutes, she told me, "You are mad. I will end the session, and I won't charge you. We will schedule another meeting at a different time." She did not give me time to answer; she just ended the Zoom meeting. I immediately emailed her my concerns about what she said in the meeting, which had shocked and upset me. I then called her on the phone to tell her to check her emails and to schedule another appointment. That call lasted 2 minutes. During this call, I asked to schedule our next meeting. She said, "Are you sure you want to schedule a meeting?" I said, "Yes." Her response was, "But you got so mad." I replied, "Are you telling me that you have never had a patient get upset with you before? I find that hard to believe. Please check your emails. I emailed you what I texted to my best friend, who team-teaches with me. Right after you ended our session, that text included the notes I took during our Zoom call. I wanted her to know what you told me about parents. Pope started gas-lighting me during this Zoom and asking me to question myself as to why parents are questioning me, disregarding the lies she knew were told about me. I explained in that text to my friend/colleague that what you were saying upset me." Pope then told me that she needed to see another patient and hung up on me. Dr. Pope NEVER spoke to me about terminating our sessions; she just stopped responding to my calls and emails. I filed a complaint against her with the Department of Consumer Affairs Board of Psychology. I shared with them pictures of my phone calls, which were so short because she would hang up on me. I sent them emails, which Pope ignored. One time, she responded to an email, claiming that she couldn't read what I sent her. The Board sent me a brief email without explanation as to why they did not pursue my complaint and would not conduct a further investigation. My dad passed on April 24, 2025. I wanted to write a Yelp review for Pope for a long time, but I've been going through a lot. I have been seeing an incredible therapist, Dr. Cynthia Stevens, in Glendale, who was recommended to me by my dear friend.

Wow. Patricia Pope called me derogatory names in couples therapy. Then my husband used the words…read moreagainst me at home over and over for months and to this day - which is years later. Why would a therapist give ammunition to my husband to use against me? We were there for couples therapy, not to give one spouse tools to beat down the other. What would motivate a therapist to do that? Her words made our marriage much worse. My husband was already an excellent bully. Now he was better. Admittedly, I was reluctant to take her advice but I really wanted to work on our marriage. It seems she couldn't handle a patient that is slow to move. Maybe she might have listened to my resistance more astutely. She wasn't capable of problem solving. She must realize not every patient is quick to move forward at her pace. No other doctor ever dismissed me. Ever. Weekly, she asked if I was sure I wanted to come back. What doctor asks that? Clearly seemed she wanted to get rid of me. It's illegal to dump a patient unless provider finds replacement. Very tricky. Very manipulative. Very unprofessional. Absolutely passive-aggressive techniques. Oh boy. As well, weekly she asked what medications I was prescribed. Where were her notes? My medicine regime has been same for years. Why wasn't she paying attention? I felt she projected her own battle with addictions onto me. My psychiatrist thought the same. Patricia Pope told me she had been addicted. Yikes. I don't have an addictive personality. I have extra medicine left over monthly and I take what I was told I MUST take religiously. I don't use recreational drugs. I don't drink alcohol. I really want my marriage to work but I don't have the tools or vision. That's what a therapist is for. Not only didn't she provide techniques or insight for us, she gave my husband daggers to undermine our relationship. She didn't "get" either one of us. But she gave my husband the wrong tools to smash what ever progress we had previously made. Yuch! My advice: find a real therapist. She may have the degree but she is not a therapist- in my opinion. Good luck to all.

I started with personal therapy and later couples counseling with my wife. I can't begin to put into words the work we've done and how much better I am now. On both the personal and relationship fronts there there has been marked results. She will challenge you to grow and help show you the blindspots that are holding you back. If you are interested in really getting help and going deep, then she is the one to see. This is not easy work by any means, it's some of the most challenging work I've ever done both personally and in my relationship on every level . The rewards for showing up and doing the work are immense. I can't recommend her enough, and if you are fortunate to work with her and commit to a length of time, I'm positive you will see results.
