Knowing he's there…read morewhen I most need a professional listener who is a continuous student of the human experience, is a gift. When a challenge/experience arrives in my life, I get to face it knowing I can call on him if I want to. It matters. The knowledge that there is a therapist I have built trust with provides a freedom to face the unknown on my own, without being alone. In a perfect world, everyone would have a therapist. I had no idea how much my ability to work through challenges would improve, just from having someone to talk through the big ones with. Patrick in particular has a deep understanding of the ways our minds can respond to life, and provides that insight without the detached, clinical vibe so many therapists seem to approach patients with. It's something truly special that he brings to the table. Finding a therapist you vibe with is not a simple task. Having one is a gift. You are a gift, Patrick. Thank you.

I started seeing Patrick in 2017 because I was doubting my own thoughts and unable to trust my own…read morefeelings. I needed someone to talk with and not burden my family or friends with lengthy complaints. He helped me to see what I can and cannot control. And the things out of my control - I can accept it or move on. This took some time to implement but it has brought me great inner peace. Since then, I have learned to take time for me and my needs so that I am able to support others. He is a trusted supporter that will listen without judgement. I have been pleased with his therapy and would recommend him.

During our sessions, I feel that she carries herself in a very welcoming and chill positive vibe, which I love about her. Ariel has always been so accommodating and flexible when scheduling an appointment to meet with her. I am also appreciative when she gives me a confirmation text before we meet the next day even though I have it in my calendar already. It's definitely those little things that matters! Honestly, it was really hard for me to understand and tell myself that I needed a little help, mentally. I was terrified in reaching out to any therapist, but I'm so glad I reached out to Ariel! I love how I can freely have a conversation with her without any judgement, move from topic to topic, and know that she can keep up with my thoughts and emotions plus help me sort it all out. I have shared some heart felt, deep and meaningful conversations with Ariel that I'm so relieved to be able to get it off my chest. I definitely feel that since our first session in June, Ariel has been by my side to help me open up, grow, heal, and learn to love and accept myself. She literally my cheerleader supporter but more chill vibes than perky haha. It really means a lot and I'm so proud of the progress we have made so far. I hope for others that are reading this as well, they will have the courage to reach out to Ariel and get the help they need. It's okay to ask for help. I'm so happy I did and reached out to Ariel. Healing is such a beautiful thing. (:

I've been working with Nicole for a few years now, and I'll preface this review by saying that I'll…read morenever be able to put into words how grateful I am to have her as my therapist. But here's my best attempt. I cannot recommend Nicole enough. I initially went to see her to help navigate and make sense of a very destabilizing life event. From day one, she's provided an incredible amount of clarity and perspective, which over time has helped me find a level of peace and self-appreciation that I'm not sure I would have found otherwise. She's incredibly warm, thoughtful, and easy to talk to, and I always feel comfortable being myself with her. I never feel judged when I'm talking through things, which makes it easy to be open and honest. There's a level of trust and understanding that makes our conversations feel very natural, and I think that has been such an important part of my experience with therapy. She has a way of helping me step back, look at things more objectively, and approach challenges in a much more grounded and thoughtful way. I've noticed such a positive difference in myself over the years, and what's been especially meaningful is that people close to me have noticed it too. I've had friends and family comment on my perspective and how much they can tell I've grown, which has been a nice reminder that the work really is making a difference. Overall, I feel like I've grown so much through working with her, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who is compassionate, insightful, and truly invested in helping you grow.

My experience with Nicole was really positive. She created a non-judgmental and safe environment…read morewhere I felt comfortable exploring the issues I was facing. She always asked thoughtful questions, gave realistic homework to work on between sessions, and genuinely inspired me to want to change and move forward. One thing to note is that Nicole isn't the type of therapist who just sits and listens. She offers her opinions and advice, which I haven't seen many therapists do. Sometimes those are hard truths, but nearly every time she turned out to be right. Her approach, which is grounded in research and data, properly framed our discussions and helped me face issues with confidence. If you're ready to put in the hard work, I highly recommend seeing Nicole. You won't be disappointed!

Now it's $938.70. This company is insane. I cannot recommend enough not doing business with them or you will be dealing with them for years. A Nightmare with Discovery's Billing and Leadership While my son's medical treatment was acceptable, my experience with Discovery's administrative and financial departments has been an unmitigated disaster. For nearly two years, I've been relentlessly trying to get them to submit a claim to my son's secondary insurance. Despite countless emails and phone calls, I've been met with an endless cycle of excuses, including claims of missed emails, misdirected communications, and empty promises of escalation and follow-up within 24 hours--promises that were never fulfilled. This gross incompetence has resulted in me paying approximately $3,000 out of pocket. To compound this frustration, Discovery inexplicably sent a fraudulent charge of over $400 to a collections agency. When I disputed this erroneous claim, the collection agency itself confirmed that Discovery verified the amount was invalid and ceased their collection efforts. It's clear that Discovery's insurance billing, accounting practices, and overall leadership are severely dysfunctional. Their operational failures have caused significant financial strain and immense personal frustration.

They completely wasted my time. Corrine (not sure if that's how you spell it) had told me she would verify my benefits when I asked if this facility accepts my insurance and proceeds to call my provider for something that's not there. I had said I have a therapy referral and she proceeds to lie to me and tell me that it's all I need to attend the IOP program here. Why waste my time? I need help from a mental health provider. I don't need my time wasted. She then transfers me to the medical benefits line (?) to get the NPI number. I get transferred, ask for the number, get questioned a few times why I need it, get placed on hold, and then get told Chase will call me back. What's up with you guys? If you don't know transfer to someone who does. That alone was extremely off putting.

EMDR has helped me process and release deep-seated traumas that once felt insurmountable. It enabled me to revisit painful memories with a sense of safety and to reframe my narrative in a way that empowered me. Somatic Experiencing allowed me to reconnect with my body, releasing stored tension and fostering a renewed sense of grounding and vitality. I felt supported, respected, and guided in a way that honored my unique journey. An IFS approach has allowed me to explore and heal parts of myself I didn't even realize were influencing my thoughts and behaviors. The sessions were all tailored to my needs, and the integration of approaches worked beautifully together, creating a holistic healing experience that addressed my mind, body, and spirit. The transformation I've undergone is evident not only to me but also to those around me. I feel lighter, more present, and more in tune with myself. Anxiety and fear that once controlled my life have significantly diminished, replaced by confidence, peace, and resilience. I've gained tools to navigate life's challenges with greater ease and grace. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to explore these therapies with Andrea and would highly recommend them and her to anyone seeking healing and personal growth.

Even after explaining the side effects I am experiencing due to the delay, I still have not received the support I need. When I spoke with Jeanette, she kept changing the reasons why my medication hadn't been refilled or why I hadn't received a call back from the doctor. At one point, she told me my insurance was not valid--without even having my file pulled up. I contacted my insurance company myself, and they confirmed there are no issues. Despite this, the office failed to set up my appointment the four different times I reached out. To make matters worse, when I asked to speak with a manager, Jeanette transferred me back to the main line instead of connecting me with anyone who could actually help. This level of negligence is unacceptable, especially in healthcare where people's lives and well-being are at stake. Since they do not want to help me , I will be taking the next step of reporting this office. Patients deserve staff who take their health seriously, follow through, and provide accurate information.

I have used them as a provider for four months, but I'm breaking up with them today…read more 1. They were nice enough in my first visit, but scheduled my appointment with a doctor who told me during our visit that he was quitting. Why would they place a new patient with a therapist who was leaving? 2. They are incessant about their TMS option. When I told them that the approximate $4,000 (!!!) cost was way out of my price range, they "discounted" it down to $1,000 magically, and repeatedly called me to schedule an appointment, even though I told them that was still too expensive at this time. 3. They have required a monthly visit the first four months, even though I was seeing my previous therapist once every six months for a condition I've had under control for 4+ years. 4. On this last visit, I was told by the provider that it would be two months until my next visit, and wrote me a prescription for 60-days instead of 30-days. 5. I was randomly assigned an appointment for today, one month after my last appointment. I did not schedule it, I did not ask for it. 6. Their office charged me $75 for a no-show appointment this morning. 7. The front desk receptionist, who obviously hates her job, told me that I was wrong about my appointment date, the follow-up date, and had no response when I asked why I would be scheduled for a 30-day check-in when my therapist wrote me a 60-day prescription. Seems to me like one of those groups that is taking advantage of the mental health provider shortage by treating their patients like cattle, nickel and diming them along the way. I've already opened a credit card dispute, but wanted to hop on here to warn everyone that this may be a good short-term solution if you are in desperate need of an appointment immediately, but find a solid practice with ethics and morals for the long-term.
