She merges her compassionate understanding of value of effective communication strategies and keen level of attentive listening to help craft a new approach. As with any new path, the desire to fall back into old routines is common but she offers a firm hand of support to guide you back on course and if necessary, will help you not overlook the thinking process that caused the regression. She is also a woman that can actually understand not only a woman's perspective, but a male's viewpoint as well. This, in turn, has definitetly fosters a level of trust necessary to follow her guidance. Lisa is exactly what a therapist should be to help a person grow and become a better person.

Extremely disappointing. Dr. Jenny Kosman runs a cash only psychiatry practice; at $460/hour I…read moreexpected a better experience. On two different occasions she was 20 and 40 minutes late for my son's appointment. She allowed a medical student to participate in his session without my permission (he is a minor). I asked her to suggest a coping mechanism for dealing with his frustration and she said she only deals with medication. She then claimed, "I don't want to step on his counselor's toes," but the counselor told me they would work together! She is very slow about returning calls. At my son's previous session she said she would probably increase the dose of his medication at the next appointment, then today backtracked and said she didn't want to. One minute she said it was very low dose and then she said she's concerned about overdosing him. What a complete waste of money. Her initial intake appointment is over $600 and her follow ups are $230 for 30 minutes. We will find another psychiatrist that actually cares about my son and is affordable or accepts insurance.

He told me on the first occasion that the doctor was not taking referrals, but he would refer me to another doctor. I called again on October 2nd and reached Orlando again. He told me that the doctor had not picked up the referral and I asked him when I would hear back? He said, "probably another week.....you know how doctors are." I told him, "What happens if someone is in crisis?" He responded, "Sir, if you don't like it, go somewhere else!" I told him he was very rude and an asshole." He asked if I was yelling at him....I told him "Yes, and you can hang up now." He complied and hung up. If you need therapy, I recommend you DO NOT contact this office. They will not help you in your crisis. I would give them 0 stars if that is possible.

Kathy has helped me tremendously with finding proper medications that work best for me. My current medication regimen has not been modified in months, which has always been a goal of mine. She has also helped me significantly cut down the number of medications I take, and she really takes my personal wants and needs into consideration. Erin and Glenda are very patient and kind, even when they are dealing with emotional outbursts. If you are looking for an office that will care for you and work with you to be your best self, come here. PLEASE be sure that you are prepared for your appointment and ready to discuss all of your needs/concerns at that time.

The first visit was on 4/22 and she ended up talking more than I did which perhaps was her way to…read morebuild rapport. Once she found out we're both from the same area in Marietta and the same doctor birthed our children, she immediately knew who I was, why my circle is the way it is, and would find commonalities between the two of us. Instead of listening to me and asking probing questions.. she would go into her own story and then my hour was up. That happened the first two visits. The third visit I did my homework and we barely discussed it. I mustered up the courage to ask her to stop cutting me off because I needed to talk through this and she said okay but your hour is up. For the fourth appointment, she texted me the day before, "Morning, I am in Alabama with a family emergency and was going to call u to reschedule. I will contact later today or tomorrow to set up new appt." Well that was 5/12 and still haven't heard from her. As others mentioned she doesn't give receipts for visits and you have to pay your copay in cash because she doesn't like using Square (because they take part of her pay). She doesn't have a receptionist or front desk so there isn't anyone to schedule or talk to if she is in a session. She has two cell phones that she WILL look at during your session as though you don't matter. I will never go back and would not recommend anyone to see her.

I went for my first appointment, to get started, and the doctor was not empathetic, and refused to prescribe anything for me. They could not review my chart because their internet was down. I was treated like an addict. The staff were all lovely, but I am very disappointed with the doctor. He ordered an MRI, which I'm waiting to have scheduled. I've never had withdrawals, but I'm terrified. He walked out whole I was talking to him. I am hoping this gets addressed quickly. I've had ablations, multiple ESI'S and surgeries, therapy over the years. They help, but only in conjunction with my meds. Very disappointed. I hope this works out before I become sick! Cindy Elko
