I had been to therapy before, but not for such a prolonged amount of time. Dr. Brown has been an integral part of my emotional and spiritual recovery. She is warm, focused, and invested in her patients' healing. She uses EMDR which is necessary/helpful when dealing with trauma. It can be a frightening process, but helps get to the heart of what's causing the trauma. I always felt safe in her care, and would recommend her to anyone looking for some really deep therapy. A couple things to note: be sure to review her cancellation policy. And she did not accept my insurance, so treatment can hit your wallet pretty hard. But it's worth it.

I found Diane and it was an immediate blessing. She had me start EMDR to help with the PTSD from the trauma of the events and I was amazed at how quickly and thoroughly this process helped. I have continued working with her for the past two years as her expertise, compassion, and intuitiveness have helped me with so many other issues as well...issues that we have a tendency to suppress until events trigger them wide open. Oh and yes folks. she has a great sense of humor!!! Would I recommend her? Oh Yes!!! Marie M.

Michele is patient and deeply intelligent, and brings a warmth that is unusual and welcomed in this profession. I went to her for individual therapy, but I know several people who have gone to her for marriage counselling and been profoundly happy with her. Couples who are not married are equally as thrilled with Michele. Easy to talk to, completely tuned-in; she cares, she brings relief. You can count on her to transform pain to tranquility.

He never gave the cost of the "special" infusion that was being offered in my area until pressed, and after all had left but three of us. Unfortunately for him, I had advanced information and experience regarding similar procedures being done worldwide, in Mexico, Panama, the Caribbean, Germany, Eastern Europe, etc. Rather than welcoming the depth and breadth of my research, information, and experience, the poor soul found it necessary to bestow a negative evaluation of my experience and research...and me. Strange as it may seem, he found it necessary to call me on under a pretense to find out my identity. I vote to give the seminar leader a vacation!

She has very practical experience in life and that always builds my confidence when it comes to a therapist. She's experienced and provides real feedback and shows genuine interest. I think there is nothing's better than feeling like you can speak to someone and they help you make changes in your life instead of talking to someone who you feel like you're just updating every week. In therapy, you want to make progress not a life long commitment to attending therapy and I believe she understands that and her motivation is in making people feel good and productive.

Karen is such an awesome therapist. She listens and provides actionable feedback to strengthen…read morecommunication. She's patient and thoughtful in her responses. All of our sessions were over Zoom (thanks to Covid), but nonetheless she made the environment feel safe, open, and connected, as if she were right there with you. Talking to her is like talking to an unbiased trusted friend. She makes all parties involved feel respected and heard. She doesn't take sides, but finds a way to make everyone feel like they have valid concerns and gives communication strategies to help navigate through tough conversations or hot buttons in a relationship. She's the first therapist I've ever worked with who has given actionable tools to use in everyday situations, instead of just listening and saying she'll see me next week. If you show up open and ready to work to see results, I have no doubt you'll be thrilled with your experience. I HIGHLY recommend her!

I worked with Dr. Maccarin for about seven sessions. Unfortunately, even after I asked to change…read moreour approach, she did not listen to me. I work best with strategies and tools; with Dr. Maccarin, I just shared my trauma and while she would reaffirm me - we never delved deeper into how it affects me today and what I can do to fix it. Additionally, she would tell me multiple times that she thought I might have a different disorder/illness, but then tell me it wasn't a formal diagnosis and give me no steps to get diagnosed. In our last session, I was extremely emotionally overwhelmed as I am going through a big life change right now. Because my mood did not match an email I had sent the night prior, one that I wrote over a period of time, when I was much calmer from not recounting the life change to my therapist, and was an agenda of things I wanted to address so I would not get sidetracked by my emotions - Dr. Maccarin suggested with just two minutes left in the session that I was bipolar. This was unprofessional and unfair. If you want to spend a chunk of money for someone to listen to your history and offer no suggestions, Dr. Maccarin is the way to go. But, if you want someone to listen to you and help you build a better life through strategies and guidance, please please work with someone else.

I believe that we all have a desire and tendency for self-improvement and growth and in keeping that in mind I help my clients improve their quality of life, however that may be.

She retraumatized me by making me write out my trauma and reread it every day to myself and her while I was currently in an unsafe environment. I can say that this did not alleviate the trauma symptoms and rereading it and reliving it every day only made my symptoms worse which she gaslit me and reassured me that it would subside. The trauma has not subsided and I got fired from my job for having severe symptoms which I experienced alone loosing the ability to afford therapy. This is absolute negligence and comes from a dangerously uninformed non- trauma-informed lens. This approach is not empirically supported and she touts. This experience added to my trauma and I spent an insane amount of money only to be gaslit, retraumatized, and revictimized.
