I've attended many seminars and trainings from well-known speakers and coaches over the years, but Tim's approach is different. It wasn't just coaching--it felt like real healing. He helped me look at my past failures, disappointments, and resentments from a completely new perspective. Instead of seeing them as burdens, he helped me realize they were actually part of what shaped me into the person I am today. For the first time, I felt genuine gratitude for experiences I had spent years wishing never happened. That shift alone was incredibly powerful. I left the session feeling lighter, more at peace, and more hopeful about the future. I'm genuinely excited for my next session and to continue this journey of growth and healing. Thank you, Tim, for helping me see that our greatest challenges can become our greatest gifts.

She's solution focused so you don't do the whole talk about your past and your feelings cliche. You talk about what's on your mind that week.

In just a few months I've gone from major anxiety issues to a better job, and I've been performing and auditioning and actually getting closer to living my dreams. On top of that, she's available when you need her!

Apparently my mental health is much more important than me literally dying. Not very Christian of her to risk my life over a piece of cloth. Re: coronavirus and severe asthma: "We all need to work together to slow the spread of the new coronavirus. If you're having trouble wearing a mask, try a different fabric or fit. Wearing some kind of breathable face covering is better than nothing. According to the WHO, medical masks when worn the right way do not cause you to breathe in more carbon dioxide or reduce your oxygen levels." So it won't reduce your oxygen intake but will somehow give you more asthma? For the record I HAVE SEVERE ASTHMA AND WEAR A MASK. This is what was so confounding to me. Somehow Miriam thinks it's ok that patients are breathing in her lobby with no masks, and that she should do talk therapy for hours with no face covering. Face shield will work too. Not cool what a waste of my time.

I live about an 2 hours away from her so doing counseling with her was not an option. When I found out that we could Facebook video chat or Skype I took the opportunity to do it. Talking with her was so easy she really understand what I was talking about. She honestly wants to help you and understands but won't let you make excuses. I looked forward to talking with her each week. We clicked right away. I had had gastric sleeve and needed help with regain. She helped me with simple steps to guide me with weigh lose and with the other things in my life that were making me unhappy and I lost weight.... Thanks Diana!!!!

I really like how Diana explains the therapeutic process and how I can benefit from it…read more She always maintains professional business practices by keeping the focus on me. She demonstrates that she is paying attention, and doesn't answer the phone, check email, or become distracted during our sessions. Diana provides a diagnosis if necessary, but remains steadfastly focused on helping me to manage any such diagnosis and get better. The diagnosis remains the backdrop for therapy, not the focus of it. She understands and communicates to me that there are many effective approaches to therapy, and no one approach can meet the needs of every client. I feel completely comfortable with her and feel like I'm in good hands.

During our sessions, I feel that she carries herself in a very welcoming and chill positive vibe, which I love about her. Ariel has always been so accommodating and flexible when scheduling an appointment to meet with her. I am also appreciative when she gives me a confirmation text before we meet the next day even though I have it in my calendar already. It's definitely those little things that matters! Honestly, it was really hard for me to understand and tell myself that I needed a little help, mentally. I was terrified in reaching out to any therapist, but I'm so glad I reached out to Ariel! I love how I can freely have a conversation with her without any judgement, move from topic to topic, and know that she can keep up with my thoughts and emotions plus help me sort it all out. I have shared some heart felt, deep and meaningful conversations with Ariel that I'm so relieved to be able to get it off my chest. I definitely feel that since our first session in June, Ariel has been by my side to help me open up, grow, heal, and learn to love and accept myself. She literally my cheerleader supporter but more chill vibes than perky haha. It really means a lot and I'm so proud of the progress we have made so far. I hope for others that are reading this as well, they will have the courage to reach out to Ariel and get the help they need. It's okay to ask for help. I'm so happy I did and reached out to Ariel.

My experience with Nicole was really positive. She created a non-judgmental and safe environment…read morewhere I felt comfortable exploring the issues I was facing. She always asked thoughtful questions, gave realistic homework to work on between sessions, and genuinely inspired me to want to change and move forward. One thing to note is that Nicole isn't the type of therapist who just sits and listens. She offers her opinions and advice, which I haven't seen many therapists do. Sometimes those are hard truths, but nearly every time she turned out to be right. Her approach, which is grounded in research and data, properly framed our discussions and helped me face issues with confidence. If you're ready to put in the hard work, I highly recommend seeing Nicole. You won't be disappointed!

From my very first conversation with Dr. Nicole, she made me feel comfortable. She took the time to tell me about herself, asked thoughtful questions about my daughters, and really wanted to understand their personalities and needs. What I appreciated most was how personal and collaborative the process felt. She took the time to get to know both me and my girls, and we worked together throughout their journey. I could share things going on in their lives that might help guide conversations during sessions, and she was always supportive and understanding. She was also incredibly flexible and helpful with our constantly changing schedules. Most importantly, both of my daughters genuinely enjoy their sessions with her and feel connected and comfortable talking with her. I'm so grateful that she has been a safe and open door for them as they've grown up -- especially through big milestones like one of them graduating. I've truly been able to see positive emotional growth and maturity in both of them. As an added bonus, she was able to work with our Kaiser insurance, which made the process even easier for our family. I highly recommend Dr. Nicole to any parent looking for someone caring, personable, and genuinely invested in helping kids thrive.

When a challenge/experience arrives in my life, I get to face it knowing I can call on him if I want to. It matters. The knowledge that there is a therapist I have built trust with provides a freedom to face the unknown on my own, without being alone. In a perfect world, everyone would have a therapist. I had no idea how much my ability to work through challenges would improve, just from having someone to talk through the big ones with. Patrick in particular has a deep understanding of the ways our minds can respond to life, and provides that insight without the detached, clinical vibe so many therapists seem to approach patients with. It's something truly special that he brings to the table. Finding a therapist you vibe with is not a simple task. Having one is a gift. You are a gift, Patrick. Thank you.

I was initially apprehensive about seeing a male therapist as I worried that I'd be embarrassed to open up to him or that he wouldn't understand me. I was wrong. From the first meeting he just told me to say what was on my mind, I did and it was great and I left feeling like I'd actually done something that was helping me move in the right direction. He's friendly, kind, welcoming, a great listener, I don't know how he does it but he remembers pretty much everything, he's funny and you feel like he genuinely cares about what you have to say while helping you realize the reasons why you feel and act the way you do. Along with other important changes I've made in my life, he has truly been a great help in guiding me to be more assertive and quiet my own inner critic enough to find peace of mind. There is still work to be done and I know that Patrick will be able to continue to help me. It goes without saying that I highly recommend Patrick.

Therapy was difficult at first because I had never really talked openly about what I was going through.

I gained valuable insight and learned practical coping skills that helped me manage stress, improve my relationships, and feel more confident navigating the challenges of college and adulthood.

Anxiety and fear that once controlled my life have significantly diminished, replaced by confidence, peace, and resilience. I've gained tools to navigate life's challenges with greater ease and grace. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to explore these therapies with Andrea and would highly recommend them and her to anyone seeking healing and personal growth.
