She has wonderful perspective and insight. she is a soft place to fall when you need it most. She is an expert in many areas and very skilled in what she does and yet she is one of the most down to earth and comfortable people to talk to. I was impressed with her professionalism and yet felt valued as a client. She makes you feel as if you are her number one priority when you are talking to her and as if she truly understands you. She shared a few key things that resonates with me still and gave me my AHA moments to move on. She always responds and returns calls or emails promptly and THAT was huge for me! Ten stars!!! If I could!

It was a really hard time and I had a lot of family issues to work out. I called here and the receptionist answered the phone and got me scheduled after making sure sessions would be covered, and calling me back with all the info on copays and coverage which I thought was really nice. My first appointment was with Dr. Hovsepian and I knew right away this office was a good place. She was awesome and I really liked her: warm, caring, and listened carefully and helped me figure out answers as to where I needed to go from there. I was initially bummed when she recommended I begin working with Dr. Giglio, another one of the doctors, however that disappointment was short lived and I understood her recommendation as soon as I met Dr. Giglio. From the first session, I felt that Dr. Giglio knew exactly what I needed. She listened and understood me. She is very caring and understanding. I learned so much about myself through her. She supported me, gave me practical skills to apply, and got me through some of the hardest times. Every time I walked out I had more confidence. I feel I owe a lot to this place. I now have skills and understanding of my thoughts and emotions. If you need help with any issue you will be well taken care of here.

Thanks to her, we learned to communicate better, understand each other more deeply, and face challenges as a team instead of feeling overwhelmed and isolated.

Alas, after explaining my situation in detail, we did not receive any useful advice. Mark did not really want to understand the origins of the marital problems nor did he give any suitable advice. He has bad judgement as evidenced by him refusing to get a covid vaccine and still meeting clients in person w/o masks. Also, he feels it's ok to take personal calls while in session. He failed to follow up with us after a few sessions, so it looks like he's not really interested in helping. He actually made the situation worse. We are now both with a new counselor who is listening, understanding and non-judgemental and truly interested in helping to get a good outcome. Don't waste your time with Mark

    I can't really speak on the quality of the IOP or PHP programs…read more My experience just... was not what I expected at all and I had since found better sober livings (which is saying a lot, because those were still inherently stressful but I at least stayed long-term. La Jolla Recovery set the bar very low). I've been in sober living for a year now, and I am now leaving. Never any relapses, graduated a program, did all the things. I'm at least in a better place from it. La Jolla Recovery was NOT that place for me. I began in April 2025. I stayed for a total of two nights before I had to leave to go to the emergency room, back to the inpatient. I was inpatient for about two weeks before I came to La Jolla Recovery. I had recently quit cannabis and was seeking mental health treatment. At first glance, it seemed chill. I had friends who had gone here and apparently had a positive experience. The groups were decent, staff were friendly, there was available snacks, etc. They had outings at the cove, etc. However, the sober living was......... awful! I stayed at a sober living house where I was immediately prescribed medication I had not taken while inpatient, but was forced to take it. One of these medications were entirely new to me, Trazodone. There was a delay in getting my mood stabilizers, anti-psychotic, and anti-anxiety medicine. I had never taken Trazodone before, but having nothing else available to me, I took it as prescribed/was pressured into taking it by the sober living manager who organized medications. The first night, I had stayed up ALL night. I was hyper vigilant, no need for sleep, and a little paranoid. During the day, it was... okay. I didn't really know what was impacting me considering how vulnerable my mental health was and the chaotic nature of being in sober living for the first time. The second night, I took the medication again. Again, I was feeling overstimulated, overwhelmed and restless/anxious. The sober living manager gave me a 2nd one, and I felt pressured to take it/was told "it would help me calm down and sleep"; that's when the shit show began. Immediately, I started hallucinating visual shapes and became scared. The best way I could describe it was "my brain was on fire." I have a history of epilepsy in childhood, and my first thought was "Oh my god, am I going to have a seizure?" My mind began severely racing and I asked her if I could call my parents and I thought I needed to go to the hospital. Coincidentally, my aunt called during this time. She, and another house manager, told her I had gone to sleep and didn't let her talk to me. This was a lie. I sat on the sofa, feeling severely anxious and panicked. I was not aggressive, overly disruptive, anything of the sort. Everyone was in their rooms at that point, as it was time for bed. I did, however, kept asking for them to call my parents because I was afraid I was having a medical emergency (I definitely was) and asked to go to the hospital. I had never hallucinated like that EVER, I had no previous history of psychosis. Initially, she told me "I am NOT going to let you ruin this house for the other girls," meanwhile, I had gotten along with the roommates and even knew some of them from having been in recovery before. I was clean, kind, and tried my best to be considerate. I introduced myself to people, wrote a note explaining my situation, and tried to be as mindful as I could be considering I was already in a vulnerable state, having experienced a death in my family, a sexual assault, and other traumatic occurrences within the few months prior to me seeking support and help. Then, she and the other woman (a fellow house manager?) threatened to call the police and have me taken away in handcuffs. I had done NOTHING illegal; I had no substances on my person, I respected everyone's space and items, I broke no laws. Holy hell, I was there for 2 days and was trying to get acclimated to a new environment. What was the crime, having a mental health episode as a result of a new medication mishap? Eventually, I was able to get my parents on the phone. They spoke to her directly and said that if I could leave the sober living in an ambulance, they would meet me at the hospital. I waited patiently for the ambulance and went to the emergency room, where I waited all night and was placed back in inpatient in the ICU at Sharp Mesa Vista. There, I was restabilized and put in a different sober living. The aggression from the house manager, the lack of empathy, the lying, and the arbitrary difficulty to even get into communication with my support system was actually insane. She felt like a wolf in sheep's clothing; fronted as a kind and caring person, but then would switch and be quite scary once I was in crisis. I was told by one of my friends who works in recovery that she has since left/been replaced, but oh my god, I pray that they thoroughly vet their housing managers at this point if they want retention. 0/5 stars. Avoid.

After being there 6 days I was told I have to do 30 in detox then I move to mental health house and do 30 there. He knew very well I had only 30 days. The house on their website that's all beautiful on the beach, only holds 6 clients. And the detox house is nasty old rundown apartments with old couches, no table to eat at, nothing on the walls. Just like a frat house. Everyone just sits in their rooms watches tv and eats junk food. Brian from admissions showed up when I became angry that he lied to me about my time there, and he started trying to convince me that doing the program their way was what was right for me. I left and it really screwed me up to have been lied to and shoved into the wrong program just so they could make money They are taking advantage of people with mental illness and people with substance abuse issues by signing them up for programs that do not meet their needs.
