She has been…read moregreat in helping me deal with my lack of self-confidence and struggles of being a mom of 2 young toddlers. She has helped me grow and mature in my marriage and has given me various tools and resources to achieve effective communication with my husband. Genevieve is incredibly empathetic, kind, warm, and accommodating. She is flexible when it comes to scheduling and very responsive to emails and phone calls. She saved my mental health during COVID and I cannot thank her enough! I highly recommend Genevieve Altwer as she is simply amazing. A professional therapist who puts her clients first, makes them feel heard and understood, and provides incredible customer service to all her clients. Thank you, Genevieve!

This is a long overdue endorsement of Genevieve Altwer, LMFT. I have been a client of hers for 3…read moreyears now and it has made all the difference in my life. I often thank her for saving me and she is always quick to reply, "Mark, you are the one that has done the work". Although this may be true, she has been my guide to do the "right" work so that ultimately I could process life's struggles in a better way and find the peace and grace inside my being that I always wanted. I have been a firefighter for 18 years and I have seen a lot of tragedy in that time. Prior to becoming a licensed therapist, Genny served in law enforcement for 13 years. Knowing this fact about her immediately garnered my attention because I knew she understood the realities of my occupation. I had seen a number of therapists prior but just never felt that rapport I had with Genny from our very first phone conversation. It was natural, organic and without pressure. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that I really did not want to start up with therapy again but knew I needed to ask for help. I believe that me finding her was not by accident, just as I believe that you reading this endorsement is not coincidental. She may not be the right therapist for you, but then again, maybe she is the one. For me, I reached out to her to simply assist me with PTSD related to 911 calls I had experienced. And we have definitely tended to those incidents and the trauma. But what I came to discover was that I had a lot of layers to uncover and work on in my own personal life. That has made all the difference. There has never been any pressure to talk about any specific facets of my life. I tell my story and she guides me through to help present perspective so that I may find the solution. You cannot control your environment and the people in it many times. But you can choose to reach out for help, put the work into you and ultimately find yourself in a better state of grace despite all that life throws our way. My hope is that by sharing my story and work with Genevieve Altwer, LMFT, it can help save one life. If it does, then it will have been worth it. Take care of you. Mark.

I found Tania through a recommendation from a friend. At the time, I was seeking an experienced…read moretherapist who understood trauma treatment. As I worked with Tania we explored events from my childhood and adulthood, so it was truly a comprehensive approach. Tania has helped me with EMDR, and after 2-3 treatments, I felt significantly better. I would say there was a marked difference in my level of anger, tension and stress. After working with Tania for over two years, I also did ketamine treatment. Tania was the ideal therapist to guide me through this process. The ketamine treatment helped me to objectively understand past events and process them in a productive way. I also gained important insights through this treatment, which has given me a lot of peace. I would highly recommend Tania as an experienced trauma therapist who is experienced, gentle, trustworthy and capable of helping her clients process the most complex trauma. Tania has helped me tremendously in processing past events, and evolving through them so that I am able to live a more happy, healthy and peaceful life.

My very first session with Dr. Grant was over the phone and I was taken aback by her level of knowledge and intuition. She was the first truly spiritually intellectual conversation that I have had in years and that phone conversation was what made me realize this. I take away something special from every session I have with Dr. Grant and always receive clarity and direction. I refer to her as my spiritual adviser to my friends and I consider her and amazing gift in my life. I had my first session with her in person this last week and found her energy just as warm, kind, true, and healing as I had felt her to be. When I have a session with her, depending on my needs, she will listen; understand; explore, explain and advise; read my chart with great thoroughness; and even do chakra and healing work if it is needed. Oh! I also bought a session from her for my father as a birthday gift one year and he was thoroughly impressed and happy with it. THANK YOU Dr. Grant!!

I feel badly for all the people who've had bad experiences donating their vehicles…read more Every charity on Yelp has bad reviews and low star scores from people who've donated their vehicles and didn't understand who's liable for the vehicle after that, nor who's responsibility it is to transfer ownership. The truth is, it's not really the charity's fault. When you donate, (or even sell) a vehicle, YOU must fill out a form through the DMV. If you sell it, you can hope the buyer will do that, but if they don't, it will still be in your name and your responsibility. Even if you sell it to a junk yard, assuming it will never run again, if you don't take it out of your name by filing with the DMV, and someone gets it running again, it could mean trouble for you. So whether you sell, junk, or donate a vehicle, the DMV holds YOU responsible until YOU fill out a form and submit it saying you no longer own that vehicle. Really, it's a bad policy of the DMVs to not have an online form and make it easier. There are some states where they accept a mailed in form, yet others you have to go in person. Regardless, this is not the charity's fault. Yes, the Hope contact person is almost always out, on vacation, away from the office, etc. but this is a charitable organization, they might be a volunteer. I was able to purchase an excellent vehicle and they gave me a good price, as it was going to a single mom of three. So the charity and I both were greatly donated by a wealthy family's decision to donate the vehicle instead of selling it themselves. If you're able to donate your vehicle, you should!

You will not get the service or the time you paid her for - a significant amount of money required all up front, which leaves her in complete control and you a victim of her neglect and unprofessional behavior. She was hired to intervene with my son, but didn't get anywhere after two short meetings, and then kept pushing back the timing, saying we should just wait it out. After a month and a half, with too many no show phone call appointments, excuses after excuses, and no work done to help get my son some help, I asked for my money back minus the time she spent. Again, she kept promising to send me a bill, but more excuses. I have filed a claim with my cc company, and hope to get my money back as she is not working with my son and still is keeping the $8000 which was supposed to cover 6 months of supervision. When I first spoke with her, I asked her what would happen if my son didn't take her help, and she said "I wont take your money, of course"...well here we are, she is not working with my son and hasn't refunded me anything. I think Vicki may have in the past had some notoriety, but now she has either overbooked herself or no longer prioritizes her clients - either way she is taking advantage of families during their most vulnerable time, and coming up very short - despicable and dangerous. I feel like a fool for not researching more before I gave her the $$...hoping no one else will do the same.
