I've been a patient of Dr. Barth for 6 weeks now and I cannot say how happy I am. Initially, I was…read moredepressed and had been taking sleeping pills (Zolpidem) for 2 years. After being on sleeping pills for so long, I decided to try CBT and I will admit, I didn't think it would work on me since we all tend to think negatively from time to time. I chose Dr. Barth based on reviews and decided to make the 90 mile drive to Oakland. After my second visit, we continued to meet via FaceTime which was a PLUS! For me, my insomnia and depression improved after approximately 3-4 weeks after my initial session with Dr. Barth. Prior to meeting him, I had been weaning off Zolpidem for a week. I am now able to fall asleep fairly fast and stay asleep for most of the night, drug-free!!! In the past, I would try to wean off on my own, or not take my pills but I had no success. I would fall asleep around 0300AM and wake up before 0600AM. The first few weeks were tough since part of the "program" requires you to go to bed at a certain time (or try), and wake up at the same time every day. The $ I spent on my therapy is worth the results! I am now back to doing my daily activities and sleeping about 50% better. This is the first time I seek treatment with a Psychologist, but overall, my experience with him has been a positive one in many ways. My therapy is coming to an end soon, but I feel confident that I will continue to progress and apply what I have learned during this process. If you find yourself desperate, or to the point that you are ready to start therapy for depression, insomnia or other issues you may be facing, do it with someone who has years of experience. Before choosing Dr. Barth, I googled many therapists who specialized in CBT. I searched for 4 months. I live in Modesto which is a fairly large city, and many therapists are in my area, but based on reviews or first impressions I got visiting other websites/reviews I decided that if I was going to spend my time and money on therapy, I wanted to put my trust on the best one out there. Like most of us, I didn't have the extra money to be spending visiting therapists that I felt may not be the best fit for me. I mean no disrespect to any professionals in this area, but in the times we live now, most of our costly purchases or investments we make, are based on reputation or reviews.

Downright rude and dismissive. I did a bunch of research on doctors and facilities in the bay area…read moreand felt this one would be the most promising only to discover they're quite the opposite after one short phone call. The lady that answered asked me what my sleep issues are to which I shared that I have had insomnia for 13 years and my main issue has always been staying asleep - I wake up every night ~4-5 hours in. Occasionally I have trouble falling asleep. To which she replied, well we can't help you. You need to go to a psychologist. We can help with the former (staying asleep) but not falling asleep. So, I said ok...well staying asleep IS my main issue so I would like to go their facility. Then she asked where I am...I am in Santa Cruz. To which she said "That's too far for you to come to our facility" and I said I realize where you are and I am willing to drive an hour for great service. This is my health after all and a huge problem I'd like to solve. Then she says ok, I'll send you contact information about the doctor (or some kind of information) and she's about to hang up but I stop her to saying "Wait! How are you sending me this information??" and she said she'll text it but I was using a google voice number, not my cell. I told her that, gave her my cell number and we ended the call. Well, guess what? Never got a goddam text. Unbelievable.

I can only assume that they have gone out of business.

Warning - Dimitriu Will Call the Cops on You!…read more I was sitting in my house not bothering anyone or making any threats. I was not committing any crimes. I was not in danger. I was not bothering anyone else. This "doctor," Alex Dimitriu, called me at home and told me he was incarcerating me in a locked facility. I tried to talk to him to see what the problem was and address any concerns he might have. He arrogantly just told me "I'm not going to argue with you." The law was on my side and civil rights exist. I politely told this person that he technically could not legally do this to me. His response was to threaten to call the cops on me, weaponizing his medical license and the racial dynamics of the situation. Interacting with Alex Dimitriu left me feeling like the most helpless victim. He forced himself on me through "medical treatment" - involuntary incarceration. He spit on my right to due process - the one guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Alex Dimitriu treated me like three-fifths of a person. I have been diagnosed with PTSD as a result of Dimitriu's aggression. I have not felt safe since he ignored the law, stripped me of my rights, and traumatized me. The professional psychotherapist I consulted (who is licensed by the state of California) called Dimitriu's actions "a disgusting abuse of power." I suspect but can not prove that he tried to hide his actions and this review from you, the reader. I've had to rewrite it once. Stay safe - stay away from Dimitriu! - Former patient

He gave me a link to some website to search for ways to fall asleep myself and said that's the best recommendation he could offer. I've attached a photo of the "prescription lol." To top it off, the doctor was late for the appointment! He spent a long time typing something into his computer, and by the time he was done, the next patient was already waiting.
