Life-Changing Experience with Dr. Eric Li (CBT Psychiatrist)…read more All my life I struggled with severe impulse control issues--sometimes almost to the point of physical outbursts: yelling, breaking pencils, storming away from people. In my earlier career, this was tolerated (even seen as "passion" in old-style work environments). I was a high achiever, deeply committed, and loved by family and friends, so I didn't fully realize how much others struggled with my outbursts from time to time. But as workplaces evolved and became less tolerant of uncomfortable situations, my behavior started creating real problems. Colleagues perceived my loss of control as personal attacks--even though, to me, it was more of a somatic battle, like burning up inside unless I released the emotion. At home, my daughters, now raising kids of their own, asked me directly to do something about it, so their children could see their grandpa for who I truly am: a passionate and loving person. I saw a psychiatrist and was diagnosed with depression and a debilitating impulse-control disorder. Thankfully, I had always managed to stop short of crossing into true violence, but the struggle was real. I didn't want to go on medication, and through a referral I met Dr. Eric Li to try Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). From the first sessions, Dr. Li impressed me not only with his medical expertise but with his ability to map my internal brain activity patterns and create a customized CBT approach. It worked like magic. Within weeks, I no longer felt that unbearable "fire" inside. Over time, I gained the ability to moderate my reactions and express emotions in a balanced, constructive way. Today, I feel like a changed man. I'm able to reconnect with others fully and live a much more fulfilling life. I am deeply grateful to Dr. Li for giving me this second chance. Dr. Li is not only an excellent psychiatrist but also a remarkable person: a medical doctor, a skilled pianist, a conversationalist with encyclopedic knowledge, and--most importantly--someone with an exceptional ability to listen. I recommend Dr. Li wholeheartedly to anyone considering CBT. For me, it was truly life-changing.

Simply put, Dr. Li is the best…read more In addition to being impeccably credentialed and at the forefront of his field, he is one of the kindest and most caring individuals I've ever met. I've been working with him for several years now, and he has done so much good for me - from cognitive behavioral therapy to helping to manage anxiety and stress at work to navigating the ups and downs of parenthood, it's hard to think of an area of my life that he hasn't changed for the better. I couldn't be more grateful to him, and I couldn't recommend him more highly.

He listened to what I had on my mind and ask thoughtful questions, and provide guidance that feels genuinely compassionate. What I appreciate most is how how he helped me understand the uncertainty of my feelings instead of just treating like I was out of my mind. His approach was very professional, empathetic, and empowering. Ever since I have gone to Dr. Ko, I have noticed real improvement in my mindset, coping skills, and overall well-being. I highly recommenr Dr. Ko if you're looking for someone who truly cares and knows how to help you grow.

I've had feelings of sudden desperation, and Dr. Cotsen ALWAYS responds in a timely manner. There's a huge piece of mind that brings comfort that help is an email away. I suffer from anxiety and his calm demeanor helps slow things down for me. Suddenly that feeling of impending doom and that "I gotta gotta" mentality becomes a faint voice. He provides deep and meaningful thoughts into his feedback and tools (such as his blogpost) to help in your mental wellbeing. He is patient and helped me walk through several exercises. His perspective and knowledge is insightful, practical, and well intended. It helps me change my perspective on how I view life situations. I've had some bad days but have have become more optimistic about the future and reaching my full potential. I feel Dr. Cotsen really respects his profession and his clients. I'm super grateful that people like Dr. Cotsen exist. A good psychiatrist is hard to find, Dr. Cotsen is definitely one of them.

Dr Mizani is a miracle. When my therapist insisted I change…read morepsychiatrists from my last one to Mizani, I was reluctant because I thought "all psychiatrists kinda suck, I might as well deal with the one I have because it doesn't get much better." I have dealt with quite a few psychiatrists in my time, including at treatment centers; and all but her have supported this idea I had that psychiatrists have no emotional intelligence, but just a purely clinical view of the human brain and don't view patients as people to listen to but subjects to examine and push drugs on, always thinking they know better and saying insensitive things to invalidate my real struggles. But not her. She LISTENS. God, I have never met a psychiatrist who listens and really LISTENS like her. She cares what you have to say and takes everything you say seriously and into account before all of her carefully thought out decisions. She makes me feel seen, respected, taken seriously, cared for, and listened to. That's a rare find. And she really knows what she's talking about; her knowledge of psych and medication is very impressive beyond expectations. As soon as I started seeing her, she was able to immediately help what was wrong with my meds and change things around to the right mix. She always lays out multiple options (some containing adding meds, but always presenting alternatives and respecting any apprehension to meds), and takes the time to listen and weigh things out to whatever you feel is best for yourself. She helped refer me to mental health treatment in August when my depression was at its worst, and though the treatment was incredible, the psychiatrist there just couldn't compare. It reminded me of how lucky I am to have Dr Mizani, the best of the best. I have depression, anxiety, and a past of an eating disorder and she has been nothing but helpful and wise. These problems are big in my life but she has kept them under control like no other, and when they get less manageable, she finds the right solutions (like when she strongly encouraged me to go to treatment and provided those resources). Finding mental health professionals who know how to handle eating disorders and don't say totally triggering and incorrect things about them is surprisingly difficult, but she is one of the few who knows what she's doing and doesn't say triggering things. If you're struggling with your mental health and like me have fear around psychiatrists and their lack of emotional intelligence, please give Dr Mizani a try. She's different. She's gold.

I was referred Dr. Mizani when I was pregnant, dealing with anxiety and let's face it, I exhausted…read moretalking to my girlfriends about my issues and marriage. I would say I am a type A personality and I like things under my control. Pregnancy, however, turned my emotions on its head. Thanks to a surge of hormones, everything made me highly irritable and aggravated. I knew, or hoped, that it was just the pregnancy. I decided to seek help because I wanted my pregnancy to go smoothly. Dr. Mizani was the perfect person to hear me out. She heard me out and used her expertise to see patterns in my actions and offered me ways to approach concerns I had differently. She got mad with me, when I was mad, and she validated me just enough that it opened the gates to tell her more of what I was dealing with. She was able to discuss sensitive issues about my marriage that didn't make me feel embarrassed. She is highly professional and very experienced with working with personal matters and intimate matters of the heart and soul. I am so glad I was able to have her be my doctor . She is so well read, researched and up to date in her therapeutic approach. I have since referred two other friends to her who are also equally satisfied and comfortable with Dr. Mizani.

I have rarely use yelp, but I feel it is my responsibility to write this review If you are in an active crisis, such as suicidal ideation, not only does he not help you, it feels like he is not taking it seriously at all. Chris is amazing. He is very compassionate and calm nature on the phone while booking my apt. I felt at ease and an exhale "finally, a psychiatrist that is going to help me" Dr. John is the complete opposite. After an hour valuation of past and present of previous psychiatrists, he told me that he did not want to treat me. I was too unstable and did not want to take on a person like me. Further, saying that at his time in his career his practice consists of people who come in, and just need refills. My case was just "too much for him". Instead of referring me to another psychiatrist that could take on more intensive needs, he gave me the phone number to the UCLA psych ward. So, if you are looking for a licensed drug pusher, he is your guy. If you are in desperate need of help or in crisis, do not go to him. I have never felt more "shamed" of my disorder, especially with mental illness already having such a bad stigma to begin with. Horrible doctor.
