Liz's inviting attitude and lovely smile immediately makes me comfortable and ready to speak with her about any issues that I may be facing. She offered advice, but mostly challenged me to think differently about my situation, posing questions that forced me to think on my own. She came prepared with exercises, book recommendations, and anecdotes tailored to my personality and therapeutic needs and goals. Liz is great at remembering the details and creates a personal relationship with clients. I always left the office with a new energy, eager to remain positive and face the day! I highly recommend Liz's therapy and practice. Thank you, Liz, for your great work.

She skillfully and patiently helped us work through some of the issues - both immediate and underlying - that had developed in our relationship, and I can honestly say that our relationship is stronger now than it ever has been. We have grown tremendously as individuals and through that growth, as a couple. Liz is extremely easy to talk to, and someone that you warm up to almost immediately. Her strength lies in her ability to listen attentively, and then help you develop the tools you need to resolve conflict and challenges that arise outside the counselling session. She is highly intuitive and does a wonderful job at articulating the importance of perspective, and the control we have over choosing how we want to proceed in life. After having made significant progress on the issues that we were struggling with, my partner and I continue to see Liz once a month. I also have individual sessions with her that always prove extremely helpful. I leave inspired and renewed, much stronger both emotionally and mentally.

First off let me start by saying that I had to really think about whether I was going to review my…read moretherapist. Who really wants to admit that they need someone to talk to about some issue or concern; or for my situation a lot of issues and a lot of concerns. Everyone is a little broken...it's how you glue everything back together that makes you who you are today. Sometimes you need to fix the fix to really heal or cope. Dr. Ryan came recommended to by another therapist of a close friend of mine. I called and made an appointment and have been seeing Dr. Ryan off and on for almost 3 years. Never having been to a therapist I didn't know what to expect. I mean I watched the Sopranos, and every other stereotypical show about "shrinks" so I already had some preconceived notions about therapy. All were shattered by Dr. Ryan. He's a very calm, soft spoken personable individual. He doesn't push you to come out of your shell, but at the same time he holds you accountable for what you are there for. He's easy to talk to and very insightful. I even had homework which aided me in developing certain skills. I can honestly say that the relationship I have with Brit (some of you have met my ever present +1) is stronger and more fulfilling because of the sessions I've had with Doc. He's helped me become a better communicator and has aided me in understanding what are rational and irrational feelings and more so how to convey that to someone when I didn't start out with the appropriate vocabulary to express my feelings or thoughts.

The price may be high, but a therapist can run much higher and not get you any results. The price tag and Liz also enticed me to work at this program really hard and remain determined.

I met with Jerry Lankford for several months during a devastating and crippling time of life. I was at the end of my rope and was desperate for help. On the advice of an acquaintance I contacted Jerry and began a ten month long counseling process. Jerry was honest, forthright, and extremely insightful. He saw things in me that no other counselor had seen, and addressed issues that had been previously ignored by other Christian therapists. However, it was not until one day when he put all the pieces of our sessions together that he made the biggest impact of my life and did what no psychiatrist had done. He put a name on my illness and gave me a medical diagnosis. Mind you, he is not a psychiatrist, but with his knowledge and experience he knows what to look for and how to help you find treatment. Based on his diagnosis I was referred to a psychiatrist who confirmed everything. I was given a treatment plan and within two weeks was no longer suicidal. After living with suicidal depression for forty two years, Jerry literally saved my life. I can think of no one better to trust your life with. read more

Jerry and his team at Lifecare are the best of the best. Jerry has been my therapist for the last couple years. The care I receive at Lifecare is nothing short of incredible.

Jerry is a very skilled, competent and qualified Christian counselor. I have met with him for over a year.

He is deeply caring and completely professional. Everyone I have ever dealt with or received counsel from at Lifecare has been top tier in comparison to other counselors I've seen in the area.

It has been this way since I started working with them a few years ago. They've been audited and I had to be refunded money they overcharged and now recently my insurance claims have been charged differently because they've changed the way they bill medication management appointments. While I don't believe they're able to control this, they did tell me that the copay would remain $10; it has not remained the same and is $80 and I am now having to back pay for all appointments up to this point for appointments that I was told would for sure be a $10 copay. If they were able to get their finance situation under control I would absolutely recommend them, but constant uncertainty about how you're being charged is not okay.

But apparently, Perkins couldn't be bothered to reach out to this patient to schedule an appointment that they were guaranteed to get paid for. And is it a bad sign that whenever you call anyone there from the front desk up, your call goes straight to voice mail? I was also informed that Perkins needed to get access to my VA medical records to see Mr. Three problems with that: A) the VA takes a VERY long time to share medical records with any outside provider. B) You can only look at my Mental Health VA records Perkins as you have zero need to see any non mental medical issues I have had C) Maybe if you guys EVER called me, I could authorize you to access my records and find out why you need to see them and sign an authorization form so you can. But thank you, Perkins, for showing the quality of your customer service as a potential paid for customer, so I wouldn't have to find out that there is no customer service as an actual patient. So, for all those people who tell service connected disabled vets, thank you for your service. Maybe you can provide me with some (customer) service in return? Or maybe not....
