I have been seeing Michelle for over five years and she is the best therapist I have ever worked…read morewith. She is an intelligent, genuine, compassionate, positive and affirming psychologist who also isn't afraid to ask some questions that will help you with your growth. With her counseling, I have been working through complicated grief, clinical depression, past abuse and trauma issues, and generalized anxiety disorder. I leave every visit with her with some sort of new insight or wisdom that maybe I haven't considered before. She has a wide range of clinical and professional skills and will individualize your therapy to YOUR needs. In closing, she is a very warm, welcoming, and kind person to boot. I have made some substantial personal and mental health growth working with her. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! :)

Very, very concerned. I called this place for the first time…read moreon Sunday and left a lengthy message with all my information on it. It is now two days later and they did not even give me a call back or anything. When I called them right now, being the one that initiated the second call, the mail that answered had absolutely no reason why they didn't call me back. The only reason that he stated was because they don't work on Sundays. I let him know that in psychiatry, any reasonable person would think it's extremely important that they check their messages when they come in having somebody on call to do that for their patients. Supremely important is that they return phone calls. Any reasonable person in my opinion would believe that if you're dealing in psychiatry, actually somebody's life could be on the line and you don't even call them back for two days. Note that I'm not saying that that's in my case but they have no idea who I am and who the people are. They are calling for the first time. For me to witness them dropping the ball this seriously, I'll be calling somebody else that shows the importance needed to do this type of work and to take it seriously enough. I offered him more than one time to give me a good explanation on why they never called back and he was unable to do it and only apologized. In my opinion, others should realize that they did this.

If you are looking for an honest therapist who will help you by providing direct communication with…read moreperfect amounts of compassion, Joyce is it! I was seeing Joyce on and off for about 3 years as I embarked on getting to know myself and embracing lots of change in life. I would still be seeing her if I could just to check in for "tune-ups". Joyce often times would suggest things that I always had an initial reaction to dismiss (for example, I needed to take deeper breaths which led me to mediation and yoga eventually). I do not want to go into much more personal details but if you are thinking about seeing a therapist look no further. I can only hope our paths cross again and can say honestly she is a huge reason I am where I am today. Joyce if you see this you were right about everything even though I could not see it at the time! You truly do know how this story goes.

I have had the great pleasure of meeting Joy but also working with her over the course of 12 weeks…read more Now before I actually get into this review, I want to throw out a few disclaimers...Joy does NOT have a magic wand that will magically make your issues go away. Joy does NOT have the ability to do your work for you and lastly Joy does NOT by any means sell herself short on the services that she provides. Joy, you are an absolute god send. Seriously.... I have been thru various counseling all of my life but that didn't resolve my issues nor did it really give me the tools needed to actually resolve them. So since I had tried that previously and pretty much got the same result, I knew I had to try something different. So, what did I do? I went to my trusty yelp and reached out and received several responses. I had a few phone interviews because I needed to find the right person to help me thru some heavy stuff. I liked Joy right off the bat. You can simply tell by the tone in her voice that she is an angel. I signed up for 6 sessions with Joy...and after my 6th session, I signed up for 6 more. And I threw Joy some crazy challenges (nothing in my life has EVER been easy)....there were issues that she flat out told me she couldn't do anything about (I appreciate the honestly more than you know) and there were some issues where I really feel like I challenged her but guess what? SHE NEVER GAVE UP ON ME. SHE NEVER TOLD ME SHE COULDN'T WITHOUT AN EXPLANATION (again she doesn't have a magic wand). Instead what I received was far far greater than any gift...Joy gave me the tools I needed to see where my deficiencies came from and also gave me some positive insight as to how to fix the behaviors and this is something I now work on EVERY SINGLE DAY and it's made me a better person. So if you feel like you are stuck, and don't know where to go, and you have tried traditional methods (and they haven't really worked) I would seriously urge you to give Joy a call...set up and appointment and more importantly work on your (O&*%(Q*&)%(. Joy, thank you again for everything. I'll be back after tax season and I've already started a list of things to work on when I return to your place...oh and Mr. Meowghee says hello!

I did a brief series of treatments at increasing doses and now go back every four months or so when I feel my mood and perspective sagging and won't respond to my usual interventions. Every doctor and support staff at Catalyst is compassionate, well-trained, thoughtful and warm. I can't imagine receiving this care anywhere else.

We specifically asked about the ice raids and the genocides we are witnessing and how it's affecting our children and the therapist we had gave a terrible response. We tried bringing it up with the supervising therapist but she never could find a time to connect with us? This is terrible. They say they are inclusive but to who?

I went to Kathleen years ago, with my husband at the time. I was in a tumultuous relationship so…read moreI'd been to other therapists before. Kathleen is sharp, insightful, and friendly. She isn't pushy, but kindly guides you to better understand your relationship. In my case, I came to understand I was in a codependent relationship with someone who could never meet my needs. We were vastly incompatible. I ended up moving out and filing for divorce, and our last session with Kathleen helped with closure. I'm remarried now, and the difference between my last relationship and this one is night and day. Kathleen's insights helped me to reflect on myself and what about me had led me to choose my previous partner. These realizations led me to turn down people I might have otherwise given second and third chances to, and helped me to find my husband (the sweetest cinnamon roll of a man!). I would highly recommend her services. If there is something worth repairing, she can help. If there isn't, she can also help you reach that conclusion.

She…read morehas helped us regain our understanding of one another with our communication, She really knows how to talk to couples properly and with compassion and love and she's very sweet and understanding. At first, we were seeing Chad I believe his name was and he was extremely hostile towards me and didn't know how to properly talk to not just myself but my partner and I felt very uneasy and uncomfortable with him as I have told the manager here they were more than understanding and gave us Pam as a replacement for our therapy sessions. She has been outstanding, compassionate, caring, respectful and has given us a lot of understanding of peace within our relationship and we fell back right in love all over again and continuing to see her as we speak if you need a good therapist for Couples Therapy, I definitely highly recommend her. She's an absolute gem. We appreciate everything she has ever done for us as we have put in so much work to better our relationship, she gave us tasks to do and come back to talk to her within our sessions to explain our feelings to another, and we have had such a better relationship than ever before. And we couldn't thank her enough for helping. Pam is the best therapist. There is again. We highly recommend her for couples who likes someone who has patience and guidance and has a zest for life.

She has the unique ability to understand her clients on such deep levels as to be able to provide them a truly valuable experience in their therapy.
