I was matched with Lisa Tannehill as my therapist. She was so warm and gentle and I really felt…read morelike she was listening and making an effort to understand what I was trying to say. I cried a lot so I'm sure some of my words were muddled! In just two sessions she created a safe space for me to talk about emotional issues I didn't even know I had. She encouraged me to carve out time in my day to feel whatever it is I needed to feel. I routinely shove my emotions down because I don't feel I have time for a breakdown. I tend to over-analyze everything and always want an answer. I will get frustrated and upset with myself if I can't find the source of whats making me so upset. Lisa told me it's okay to not know sometimes, you just need to allow yourself to feel. A simple lesson I suppose, but one I'm still learning.

In addition to her kind nature I've noticed that when you are talking with her, she gives you 100% of her attention and focus. I have never met a therapist who listens and processes so intently. Sometimes all we need is to be "heard" and I can say with 100% certainty that Kathryn gives you that attention.

Kate Maxwell is a gift! Her education, knowledge and life experience combined with exceptional…read morelistening skills are priceless! Committing to therapy has allowed my husband and I to break through areas that were responsible for a soon to be divorce life experience for us. We are learning, growing and changing at accelerated speed because Kate offers insight and rationalization that we apply with emotion and make our way through the most difficult things. Kate extracts the depth of the issue from all the bantering back and forth and brings it up so we can work on that and not be stuck in the cycle of bantering back and forth. I highly recommend Kate for all areas of needed insight, guidance or advise. She has a very warm and welcoming office that immediately feels cozy and safe and she is always pleasant and warm. We look forward to our weekly appointment!

I have been seeing Carol for a few years now. She took me from an angry (terrified) single mother…read moreof 2 and helped me get my life back. That terrified (angry) person is gone and I am able to live, laugh, and love again. I am able to sleep again. I am able to think, logically, again. I am able to differentiate between who I am as a mother and who I am as a person, close to the person I was before I became a mother. I am able to be me again. Thank you, Carol. Carol is very knowledgable and intuitive. She is insightful and oh, so intelligent. However, she doesn't speak to you as an authority. She speaks to you as a person in need of help. She has a knack for seeing who you really are on the inside, even if you can't tell who that is anymore; she see's it. I have been to many therapists in the past with no help, or they would misdiagnose me, getting no feedback from my MD and it didn't matter what I thought. Needless to say, I didn't see many of them more than a time or two. Carol takes the time to get to know you through therapy and helps you alter your own behavior, as needed. She helps you to see what is going on in your life by just talking to you and helping you steer yourself to a better place. I would recommend Carol to anyone who needs life and/or family help. She is the best therapist I have ever met. She is one of the nicest, most honest people I have met in my life. She is also a character. She makes me laugh by the end of our sessions even if I came in feeling horrible. Then, sometimes, without even knowing it, she gives you a lot to think about between sessions and sometimes she will give you things to do or try, like healthy homework. I am now able to spend time with groups of people, something I wasn't able to do before I started seeing Carol. I am able to be in a public venue, (large group of people I do not know), without having panic issues. Carol is a wonderful person and an astonishing therapist and I wish I had found her years ago.

Dr. Weser is an amazing therapist. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, caring,…read moreinsightful, and engaged. She has the ability to sift through things I present to her and find the core of the issue. I have been helped immensely by her. I am very grateful to have her as my therapist. I think she has the ability to meet patients where they are emotionally and provide support and encouragement. I have had a lot of "ah ha" moments of clarity during my sessions with her. I have nothing but praise for her!

It's hard to put into words the tremendous gratitude I feel for this wonderful and talented…read morecounselor. Erin Andersen is the real deal. She's not in it for the money. Erin is one of those rare souls who has found her life's work in psychotherapy and is doing it as a labor of love. Of course Erin charges money for her time, and her time is worth every penny she charges. But it's not a job to Erin - it's a calling. She is generous to a fault, skillful, honest, and trustworthy. Erin's expertise and professionalism as a therapist, combined with her considerable natural ability as a listener, confidant, and truly concerned person-in-your-corner, make her counseling nothing short of superb. Over the years I've found that therapists are mostly well-meaning but mediocre. Erin, however, is a champ. 99th percentile. At the very top, among the best of the best, in my experience. Time spent hunting for the right therapist is often time wasted, at best; but you won't waste time or energy with Erin. Personal fit between therapist and client critical, though it's impossible to predict. If Erin's not the right person for the job, she likely knows who is, or can give you reliable guidance and direction in your search. The benefit that I, my wife and daughter, and our entire family have gained from our association with Erin Anderson is profound, substantial, long-lasting, and extremely valuable. Thanks to Erin's hand-holding, careful advice, attentive listening ear, her faith in us, and her ability to see the big picture, we've dodged many a pothole in the various roads we've trod as a couple and as a family. You can do it. Erin can help. Thank you, Erin, for everything!

If my wife and I had not decided to work with Douglas and Olivia, our relationship would have ended…read moreon an extremely nasty note. We were initially attracted to them precisely because they operate as a team - as my dad once told me "a marriage counselor either takes sides or is ineffective". The very first time we met, one of the first things they told us was that they had no idea whether or not they could save our relationship (nor whether it was worth saving), but that if we worked with them, we would understand what went wrong - and help to ensure we didn't make the same mistakes in the future. One of the first exercises they offered to us was a list of questions to ask your partner BEFORE getting married - most of the items (which dealt with very basic beliefs) had never occurred to us, but were clearly important to determining whether or not there was a fundamental incompatibility with your partner. This exercise alone, if taught to people embarking on their first mature relationships, would eliminate a phenomenal degree of heartbreak in the world. As other reviewers have mentioned, Douglas and Olivia are a joy to speak with (sessions only rarely "feel like counselling"). Their manner and personalities encourage open and honest communication, and facilitate difficult or sensitive discussions to a frankly amazing degree. Whether or not they can help salvage your relationship, you will be a better partner (and person in general) after working with them.

Douglas and Olivia are amazing, seriously!

It was such a joy to work with this wonderful couple who brought a deep intelligence, compassion and hope into our lives, while teaching us how to understand ourselves and each other better, in order to interact more harmoniously. They inspired us to learn more about how we each live in the world and we experienced a lot of personal growth quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed our sessions with them immensely because they were able to make the work fun. We could laugh at ourselves in a non-judgmental way, and learn to make better choices. They communicated so well as to the "issues" and helped us discover the way to make needed changes, painlessly. The whole experience was completely enlightening and I highly recommend them to any couple or individual in need of creating a better relationship with a spouse or significant other and/or having healthier/more profound relationships with others and even themselves -- You cannot help but experience deep personal growth in the process. Since working with them, we have continued along that path to better self awareness/understanding and have sustained healthier interactions overall. They provided us with some great tools, strategies, information to use all the time. If you are looking for a way through an unhealthy and/or unhappy relationship, or relationships, or just want to understand yourself better and why people react to you as they do or why you react the way you do, you owe it to yourself to contact Douglas and Olivia!
