When I'm asked for a referral, Beth Newton is the first name that comes to mind. She is a wonderful…read moreclinician!

I refer to Beth Newton, LCSW frequently for couples therapy. Being a couples therapist requires…read morethoughtful and dedicated evidence based training and I refer to Beth because she, unlike any other couples therapist in Durham, dedicates the time and devotion to the proper training. Many therapists say they work with adults, children and couples. There is no way to be adequately trained in all three. Beth is singularly focused on couples. That makes her outstanding in the field.

Visiting Steven is like going to that safe place that you have tucked away in your heart from your…read morechildhood. I feel trusted and trusting in his space and can allow my deepest, truest voice to be heard in his presence. There's no judgement from him, only kindness that strives to stroll through some painful past experiences. Steven is a most trusting, helpful, and skilled healer (and an excellent writer too!) He is persistent yet mindful of boundaries. He will nudge you over that small roadblock of your mind and help you to realize how easy (or difficult) it was to overcome. Then you will learn how glad you are to have gone through it. The world seems like a different place after a session with Steven. There should be a sign in Steven's office - Disclaimer: Clarity and mindfulness may follow. Self-understanding, rejuvenation, growth, tranquility, confidence, and mental relief all come to mind. Steven will put years of experience, research, reading, writing, singing, and learning into the path of your winding river. Aptly named: Flow Healing Arts.

Steven is the bomb diggity. Plain and simple…read more I went to Steven, so I thought, because my back was hurting, and no conventional therapies were working for me. I also thought it could be some kind of emotional issue as well, I was desperate and tired of being hunched over like an old lady. What I got was so much more. Not only did my back pain go away, but I got major transformation to boot. My relationships have improved. I started dating (after being single for 2 years), and I'm feeling more present and "in-my-body" than I ever have before in my life. I think every person who wants real transformation should go see this guy. He's not only a genius at what he does, but he really walks the talk. He IS a really grounded, present, and open hearted guy. You just feel calm in his presence. It's a rare find to find a healer who seems to have some of their own stuff worked out, it gives you a lot of faith in what they're doing with you! Anyway, he's awesome. GO. Just...go.

I have never made a yelp review before but I feel the need to post one because I am genuinely…read moreconcerned that other patients will receive the same lack of care that I have experienced here. Over two years I have been assigned NINE different providers. NINE...... this means that essentially every time I have an appointment it has been with someone who doesn't know my case or me. This also means that I constantly have to badger everyone at the practice to prescribe my antidepressant medication. I cannot fathom how someone who has more severe symptoms than I do could possibly manage to get their medication and treatment taken care of here. I was told that Duke Psychiatry was pretty good but I have had honestly the most unbelievable experience of negligence I have ever seen.

I've been Dr Hampton's patient since 2004. I had been to other psychiatrists prior but have not…read moreseen any others since. He is warm, calm, and caring - he listens and provides useful, take home advice. I have a lot of health issues that effect my entire life - he has helped me have a positive outlook again. I have a lot of anxiety and he has taught me several meditation techniques to combat it. I'm a Christian and he even gives his advice toward my religious beliefs when I need it that way to make sense. I highly recommend!

I have worked with Amy at Somatic Collaborative for over a year. In this work together I have…read morecreated a new relationship with my trauma, my body and my emotions. I truely feel safe in my own space and in the world, for the first time in my 70 years on this earth. This somatic work has given me an opportunity to step out of my story and view my very sensitive nervous system with respect and awe. Amy has helped me to understand that I "AM NOT BROKEN". And most importantly to learn how to understand and use the messages from my nervous system as a guide. The environment at the Collaborative is respectful, healing and safe. I am grateful to have found Amy and the Somatic Collaborative.

I saw Amy for about a year and have benefited enormously from being with her. She always was…read moreintimately present and non-judgemental even when traumatized and very needy parts of me showed up. She was willing to follow where no other therapist had dared to go, making the relationship real and caring. She is able to think outside the box and has an adventurous spirit. Most of all, it was thanks to her genuine care and love that old traumatized parts in me could heal. I highly recommend her. MH, Chapel Hill
