My 6 year-old daughter, who has been through an acrimonious interstate divorce, was a victim of…read moresexual abuse & the subject of an absolutely vicious custody battle, is in dire need of therapeutic support. It took my deeply estranged ex-husband and I ONE YEAR to agree on a therapist for our daughter via the court system. That therapist was Annette. After seeing my daughter only twice Annette quit working with us, via e-mail no less (even though I had just called her). She stated she would not be able to continue seeing my child because of the unrest & anger between my ex-husband and I. So essentially, she refused to provide a struggling child therapy because of the large, broken emotional pieces of her family life - all things completely out of her control - that warranted her needing therapy in the first place. Annette is not patient-focused, warm, or professional. She would rather see a young, helpless child suffer in solitude than tolerate the inconvenience of her distressed parents. If she doesn't want to be involved with the strain of modern dysfunctional family dynamics, it would seem she is in the absolute wrong line of work. My daughter remains without a therapist & likely will for a long time to come. I would not recommend Annette to anyone, anywhere, ever.

Annette is very patient and is one of those people who really absorbs everything you share and is…read moreable to not only convey that she understands but provide honest helpful solutions. Her suggestions are solid, genuine and you can tell she really knows what she's doing. I have always felt very comfortable opening up to her and feel a sort of confidence that she can be equally empathetic but also honest and not hold back which is the balance you really want in a therapist. I highly recommend Annette!

If you were to list the attributes of the ideal therapist, you would be describing Lindsey. She is…read morethe epitome of what you look for in a therapist and professional. She is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and explains all aspects of what to expect along the way. Even from the initial contact, seeking support was easy and comfortable. She's a successful business owner, so she can relate to your personal or professional world with ease. She is also highly-skilled in brain-spotting and EMDR. Whatever you are trying to navigate with Lindsey, I am very confident her and her team will be there to assist. Highly recommend!!

I started seeing Lindsey as my Mother was going through hospice. I was 36 years old, mother of 2…read morechildren, married, with a career and a dying mother. From our first meeting until 14 months later from her passing I have been seeing Lindsey from bi-weekly to bi-monthly now. I am so thankful and grateful that I had her to turn to. She helped me work thru ALL of my feelings and emotions and her Brainspotting exercise brought peace to my life in ways I couldn't have imagined. Therapy in itself has enriched my life in ways I KNEW it would because I opened my heart and mind to it. Taking the first step in making the call was the hardest part, the rest has been fulfilling for me. If you are struggling especially in trauma, please do yourself a favor - make the call to Living Well. Life is too short not to Live Well. Bonus - this was over zoom the entire time, comfort from your own home!

I don't think Kara is practicing anymore. Either way, let me tell you about my experience: Kara and…read moreI worked closely together for a period of 6-7 months. One day, Kara mysteriously quit without informing me or telling another soul. This resulted in me showing up to our scheduled appointment, waiting for a half hour, and then leaving. I texted her. I called her. No response. It took four days for the Counseling Center she was working out of to inform me that she had quit and I had to find another therapist. None of the mental health professionals at that location were taking new clients. No one warned me in advance so I could take care of it, or you know, not waste a half hour of my time showing up to an appointment that the person I was paying to help clearly didn't give a shit about. No one referred me to a new therapist. Literally the person charged with helping me handle my mental health and helping me learn to care for myself, showed no regard for my emotional well being in the decision she made, showed no regard for me as a person as she couldn't even give me a head's up (or take five seconds to text me to cancel our appointment), showed no regard for how I was going to continue my treatment or continue taking care of myself. Worst therapeutic experience of my extensive mental health history and, frankly, Kara can go fuck herself.
