As a postpartum mother seeking support, I left this appointment feeling completely dismissed,…read moreunheard, and even more emotionally distressed than when I arrived. I explained my triggers and specifically shared how upsetting it was that medical professionals kept speaking only to my husband instead of addressing me directly. Shockingly, the psychiatrist proceeded to do exactly that during the appointment. At one point, after I expressed how overwhelmed and emotionally exhausted I was, I was simply told to "take a nap," which felt incredibly minimizing and insensitive given the seriousness of postpartum mental health. I was also questioned about why I was even there, which came across as judgmental and deeply unprofessional. Postpartum mothers deserve compassion, validation, and proper care -- not to feel ignored or belittled. I truly fear that this kind of treatment could make vulnerable mothers feel worse instead of supported. Unfortunately I didn't even get the women's name that "cared" for me. I left after speaking to her for 5 minutes.

This "team" is also listed as Laguna Behavioral on Yelp. I have aired a month for my first session…read moreand during this session the therapist kept referring to the point she didn't take people who met a certain criteria (not sharing because it's a personal issue) I told her THREE TIMES I did not meet that criteria, but after the third time she said she couldn't take me as a client but could finish the session. No thanks- you clearly can't listen to me and I have no interest. I then called the receptionist to see if another therapist could be found and she said there is nobody else who accepts my insurance. Great, so much for your "team!" Don't waste your time!

The skills and knowledge I've received here have helped me better cope with anxiety, depression, and learn how to improve my relationships. Rachel at the front, keeps the place together and encourages like no other. Matthew sets the bar as an incredible case manager and facilitator. When speaking with him I felt seen and understood during a challenging time. And I've seen how the groups he leads with transformative practices has made powerful waves in how my peers and I tackle our challenges. Lena is a wonderful CM who embraced me as I am and helped me see a whole new world of possibility, at my own pace, as well as offering deep insights when facilitating our groups. And Dr.Turner has been a wise wizard offering support with tailored medication, speaking to me as an individual, and offering timely guidance. There's a list of more wonderful people here, like Ashly and her sound meditations, and Sapna with her artful activities for making breakthroughs. Jamie also sets a safe space that helps groups open up and process. The environment is welcoming too, which makes the experience less daunting, as well as the intake process with Aljan. The insurance and paperwork process is handled efficiently too. The care and wisdom shared within this facility has greatly influenced my sense of safety and helped me better my life. There's the family we start with, and the family we make along the way, and I will be forever grateful for all the people I've met here. All that to say, I definitely recommend them. Wishing you courage on your journey.

I want to specifically highlight something that I haven't found at other programs -- the family…read moresupport component. When a loved one is struggling, the people around them are often struggling just as much, and most facilities don't acknowledge that. Solstice does. The group sessions designed for family members were genuinely transformative for me. They didn't just offer reassurance or pamphlets -- they gave me real, practical tools for how to show up better for my family member during an incredibly difficult time. I came in feeling reactive and overwhelmed, and I left with what I can only describe as a blueprint: a way of understanding what was happening and how to navigate it with more clarity and less fear. If you have a loved one in treatment and you're wondering whether to engage with the family programming -- do it. It made a meaningful difference in how I was able to support someone I love. That kind of ripple effect says a lot about the philosophy behind this program

I have seen countless psychiatrists and therapists since I was a kid. This was by far the most…read moreunprofessional psychiatrist I have been to. I was trying to get an appointment to see if I have ADHD. Dr. Michelson was immediately condescending and put me in a room for 20 minutes. He had me perform one test alone followed by an about 30 question, questionnaire. I then went back to speak with him after taking the test just for him to explain my results and say "you don't have ADHD but you don't not have ADHD". He said I was somewhere in the middle, which was not a definitive answer. He then tried to immediately push some new medication on me and blamed a lot of my symptoms I've been experiencing for my entire life on a recent break up and death in my family. I truly felt like he viewed me as some college girl who just wanted meds. I just wanted a validating diagnoses as I have been struggling with many ADHD symptoms for as long as I can remember. As soon as I got out of there I broke down in my car crying because I was not listened to at all and he made me feel like I was stupid. I of course got a second opinion because his test was not thorough whatsoever. The second Psychiatry office I went to had a three step appointment process. One hour long general consultation, 3 hour in person testing, and then about 40 minutes minute results appointment about a week later, after it was fully analyzed. The three hour testing consisted of a similar test done by dr. Michelson, but also consisted of more tests with an administer in the room who gave puzzle, definition, pattern, and number tests. This was followed by a 300 question questionnaire. After this thorough testing, I was in fact diagnosed with ADHD. I didn't realize how unprofessional Dr. Michelson's practice was (the crying after the appointment should have been an immediate sign) until after I completed this testing at another office. I also learned that ADHD is extremely unreported in women and Dr. Michaelson continues to contribute to the problem. As a woman, I've been not listened to by countless doctors, and Dr. Michelson is now one to add to the list. If you're wondering if you should go to Dr. Michelson, I'd advise you to find someone more professional.

I am going through a very heavy circumstantial family loss that has been triggering back into another loss. Very destabilizing and somebody of her alleged caliber should know this and she chooses not to help in circumstances where she could actually make a difference, but she's a shame based person she wants to shame you for going through some circumstances that should've never been happening anyways she will not work with you. She has only her way of doing stuff she's super rigid. I fail to see why she even exist in this place...still clear of this place. If you care about your authenticity and being confident as a human being, please don't let this woman make you feel less then cause she is very capable of that and us that suffer from various mental health issues should be actually protected not shamed.

Video calls, Greg couldn't be bothered and would calmingly sip his coffee while my friend was having a complete mental breakdown unable to talk and having constant panic attacks. Pathetic!! Had no care, changed meds every 2 weeks.. my friend went into horrific withdrawals so was hospitalized 3 times and unable to care for himself for 8 months! All because of the med changes. 4 er visits!!! Dr. Shaulov was not available.. always out of the office..never returned calls. Absolutely inexcusable. They do more damage than good.

I get this place one star because of the staff and the other provider, Dr. Gregorian. He is terrible the worst actually. He is very cold and has absolutely no personality or feelings going on. I've seen other comments about him and I agree completely. A very robotic cold exchange and he tries to withhold anything possible that you may need or what you know you need cause you've been on it and plays this really weird hardball with you. I would not go there for him that's for sure. And then the front desk staff is the worst. That's the only reason I am no longer going there because if the ladies that answer the phone. They would prefer to gossip amongst each other and laugh and party with themselves then just do the bare minimum of their job. So if I would give five stars to anyone here it is Doctor SHAULOV. Him I do recommend but having to jump through the hoops of the secretary, staff or being push onto PA Gregorian is a big possibility going here. So if you do go, make sure to be explicit that you would like to see Dr. SHAULOV and no one else even if there's a weight that has longer to see him. That's my advice!
