He does not provide a safe and supporting environment in which to share your thoughts. He humiliated me, and even publicly humiliated me in front of my ex-wife and fiance, while taking no accountability for his actions when confronted. He doesn't like to be challenged or confronted. I had a VERY poor experience. If you're seeking a therapist for your child there are much better ones out there.

Unfortunately Gary was not knowledgeable, nor professional. When someone you are entrusting to provide professional insight in the fields of psychology and talk counseling asks questions such as "when was the last time you got laid" it clearly violates that trust and gives actual professionals a bad rap. In short if you are dealing with life's many stressors and challenges, and are seeking a professional, I highly advise you to go elsewhere.

He literally changed and saved my life when he helped me cope and deal with disabalizing anxiety, fear and depression that I had been dealing with for over ten years in my youth. With Dr. Walter's wisdom and direction I was able to change the direction of my life, become productive, fall in love with who I am and become motivated and driven to live. I highly recommend Dr. Walters to anyone struggling with any issue. He is easy to relate to and extremely talented at preforming effective and useful therapy methods.

I've been seeing Mark for many years now, and through several difficult times. I've seen him alone…read moreand for relationship counseling with my partner. Mark is a fantastic counselor. He listens well, has a more open structure and flow to the conversation than other counselors I've met. He's very gentle and effective in his feedback, and very respectful. I've seen a few counselors before Mark, and once I found him I will look no further. I highly recommend him to friends.

I first worked with Greg Miller in 1998. We were co-therapists providing family therapy in a…read moreclinic and school based therapy to adolescents. Greg always demonstrated the utmost professionalism. He modeled clear boundaries and great compassion and concern for his clients. Greg has a unique ability to connect with clients. He is engaging and down to earth. His approach is interactive and based in real, practical and varied techniques that allow each client to grow and become more adept at handling their own challenges. I have used him as an on-call therapist in my practice when I am not able to be immediately accessible to my own clients. Lastly, I would (and have) highly recommended Greg Miller as a therapist to friends and others and will continue to do so.

He can help families to more easily and effectively make tough decisions that will ultimately help that family. He also is an effective CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) therapist who helps to quickly and effectively get to the bottom of, and treat, deep-rooted or short term mental health issues and crises. I would recommend Mr Miller to family.

It has taken me about four years to write this review. I…read morehave a son who is quite challenging medically and behaviorally. My lack of consistent parenting role models left me feeling alone and uncertain at times. Sometmes I felt like a failure, other times I just felt lost. All I knew was that my fantasy of how I would parent was nothing like the day to day reality. To be fair lfe was stressful back then to this single parent. And when it seemed the dust had settled enough for me to consider my needs and not just deal with crisis and survival i reached out for guidance. Ms. Zentner came recommended via a Google group for mental health professionals as someone good with parenting issues and kids. Perhaps she is. I wouldn't know. She spent one meeting with me-an introductory assessment, one with my son and I (another assessment), And I think one more after this perhaps discussing her assessment. I wasn't blown away in a positive manner, I thought her conclusions and observations were rather elementary but I was willing to give it time. After all it took years for me to commit, so I certaily wasn't going to let myself quit prematurely. However I was disturbed by her persistent yawning throughout our few meetings. I tried to rationalize it, be a big girl and not personalize it. A bit of a challenge for someone already feeling inadequate and inept. I had to reschedule our fourth appt. I gave PLENTY of notice. Well over two weeks. She said she would call me back because the date I had available didn't work for her. And I never heard from her again. I may have called once after but maybe not. It was the holidays. I made excuses for her and thought I would give it a bit more time. As the weeks passed the clarity of my disappointment and discomfort was impossible to ignore and I decided it was best to just not return. We were clearly a poor match. I suspect she isn't a terrible counselor but I am not convinced she is a clinically astute therapist. Yawning without any recognition of the impression it gives is rather obtuse in my opinion. I was and remain a bit raw deep down about my parenting fears and disappointments. However I also have a ton of strengths and skills to fall back on. Yet if this situation struck such a chord with me I would hate to imagine its' impact on someone even more distressed/vulnerable than I had been at that time. She is probably not a bad counselor and with the increased emphasis these past two decades on short term cognitive techniques (over more in depth psychodynamic skills) she probably does okay. However I doubt I would ever recommend her to someone I cared for or whom I believed to be in need of good emotional support.

Kathryn is an incredible therapist. My son has advanced emotionally at a much higher rate since…read moreour regular sessions with her. She is prompt, communicative, and extremely non-judgmental in making sure her recommendations work with our family culture, values, and beliefs (even though I suspect she doesn't share them). In response to the other reviewer, in two years of regular sessions I don't recall a single yawn (or unreturned phone call). In short, I feel 1000x more equipped as a parent with her in my corner. EDIT: She often runs 10-15 minutes behind schedule, but I understand this given the amount of attention she gives to her clients. I have always received my full 55 minutes of attention.

I wish I could think of something nice to say here, since there are no other reviews, but the best…read moreI can come up with is that the receptionist is reasonably courteous...if you can get her on the phone. But they almost never answer the phone there. She can't give you directions to their office without reading from a badly-written script, and the office itself is pretty inefficient, until it's time to send a bill. Their most modern piece of equipment is a fax machine. They get phone messages BY FAX. You cannot email them; they do not seem to have their own website. But the doctor. Oh dear. He has zero bedside manner, no rapport, no warmth, and he's supposed to be a psychiatrist for children and teenagers. His office has almost no decorations and nothing for a child to look at. His manner is dry and pedantic, and he drones on at great length very slowly until you want to scream. It did not seem as if he really listened to anything we said to him. He never smiles or even seems to make eye contact. It's as if he regards his patients not as people, but as algebra problems; this symptom, this body weight, this dosage of this drug, and that's it. I don't know exactly how to evaluate his professional knowledge; it's not my field, and I do realize that it's a hard job. Also, I don't wish to violate the patient's privacy by offering any more details. Still, it is not my impression that any benefit was gained from his treatment. Again, I really wish I could find something nicer to say. This is the harshest review I've ever given.

Let me tell you, this man is the reason I ended up graduating high school. He was always available if you planned ahead of time, which as a doctor, he was very busy. if you made an appointment that wasn't an emergency, he was there, would answer any questions and work with you on trying different medications until one worked (for the usual amount of time before having to change). I do understand this field and i do understand why you felt that way due to his lack of emotional appeal. However, as a patient, that's all I wanted or needed. I'd rather a doctor not know me on the personal level so we can have a professional relationship and I can not have to worry about "shooting the shit." I am now an engineer with an accredited degree from a top four year university. I honestly sometimes cannot believe how much my life turned around due to being on the right medication. This other reviewer is some mother who has a little monster of a child, which I was admittedly and taking it out on the Doctor who is looking at your son as a human being. Anatomy is structured and consistent across the board, why would it be silly or wrong to think of it otherwise. Why is your son/daughter so special that HE needs to have that special attention, that the Doctor NEEDS to know WHY or HOW he does certain things. Blah blah blah, it's not about that. It's a chemical imbalance, simply put. Don't knock on a doctor who hasn't even treated you, that's just wrong. Thanks Dr. Ceballos, Hope you're doing well and not getting too caught up with all the new stuck up residents here in Austin.
