Wellmind is the absolute worst Mental Health Service Provider you can possibly find. They charge…read moreyou incorrectly, do not apply their own policies consistently, do not even have policies with correct verbiage to support what they try to enforce. On top of that, you will be chastised, insulted, and spoken to like a child by their nasty and condescending employee Laura Beann who has never had a professional conversation in her life and takes her work way too personally. Laura is a compassionless, cold hearted human void of any empathy and is the opposite of someone you want handling your sensitive HIPPA or Mental Health care. Wellmind was a complete waste of time and resources and I wish they had actual honest reviews so I could have avoided this joke of a company entirely.

I highly recommend the services of Dr. Cathrine Reed of Peninsula Mental Health. Notably, she is…read morevery well organized and detailed oriented in her practice. Thus, her notes of office visits and her questions that begin each session are extremely thorough. In addition, she is also cautious and careful as she works with you to determine the best plan for treatment. At all times, Dr. Reed has the patient's needs and concerns in mind. Recognizing the impact of increased environmental stress and other factors, Dr. Reed effectively adjusted and refocused my prescriptions accordingly. Perhaps most notably, Dr. Reed is interested in the whole patient. As such, she takes time to listen and to hear what you feel is happening before she determines a course of action. Dr. Reed has a calm demeanor as well as personal warmth that makes her accessible. At the same time, she upholds the highest standards of integrity and professionalism. She is an excellent choice for someone in need of a psychiatrist. Justin E.

He's both…read morecompassionate and thorough in his approach, and he utilizes his incredibly deep understanding of sleep mechanics in order to help his patients find balance in their lives. He wants his patients to thrive. He gets that many of us in the tech world have unique stressors that are part of the fabric of our lives. He has helped me bring this into focus in order to find ways to manage them better. Dr. Alex has a lot of experience to draw from, and he uses his expertise in both psychiatry and medicine to find healthy ways to guide his patients to better sleep.

Warning - Dimitriu Will Call the Cops on You!…read more I was sitting in my house not bothering anyone or making any threats. I was not committing any crimes. I was not in danger. I was not bothering anyone else. This "doctor," Alex Dimitriu, called me at home and told me he was incarcerating me in a locked facility. I tried to talk to him to see what the problem was and address any concerns he might have. He arrogantly just told me "I'm not going to argue with you." The law was on my side and civil rights exist. I politely told this person that he technically could not legally do this to me. His response was to threaten to call the cops on me, weaponizing his medical license and the racial dynamics of the situation. Interacting with Alex Dimitriu left me feeling like the most helpless victim. He forced himself on me through "medical treatment" - involuntary incarceration. He spit on my right to due process - the one guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Alex Dimitriu treated me like three-fifths of a person. I have been diagnosed with PTSD as a result of Dimitriu's aggression. I have not felt safe since he ignored the law, stripped me of my rights, and traumatized me. The professional psychotherapist I consulted (who is licensed by the state of California) called Dimitriu's actions "a disgusting abuse of power." I suspect but can not prove that he tried to hide his actions and this review from you, the reader. I've had to rewrite it once. Stay safe - stay away from Dimitriu! - Former patient

This man quite literally saved my life!…read more Not the first psychologist I have seen, but the first one that made a difference. He helped me sort through a bunch of stressors, both present and past, and gave me a whole new outlook on life. I am much more relaxed and more comfortable around people now - and also more comfortable with myself. I appreciated his non-clinical attitude and informality. I could joke with him when I wanted to laugh, fiddle with a toy when I didn't want to talk for a moment, cry when I needed to... I was sharing the room with a real person, not some two-dimensional character. (I'm not a big fan of by-the-book CBT practitioners, nor of "and how did that make you feel" automatons.) Dr. Sitzer, will you marry me?

David is amazing! I've gone through very major life challenges and it's been overwhelming!! With…read moreDavid I have learnt that I am absolutely fine the way I am, and that more than anything, it often only takes the affirmation of a professional to tell you that your thoughts and emotions are valid, and that once you start to slow down and listen to your own inner voice, everything will fall into place. In short, he was able to teach me that I am fine just the way I am. All answers are already there. Other professionals suggested medication and a myriad of formal scary things, but I am so very glad I went for a second opinion and found David's services. Beyond the help this has provided to me as a person, I believe David's qualities of being very calm and patient but also funny and not rigid likely make the experience a good one for most clients. He just makes you feel good, and I believe that is what many of us need - along with simply believing in ourselves. Thank you David for the great professionalism and service!

I originally looked on Yelp and read the reviews for Searching Pathways and Dr. Robert Mitchell. His outlined approach and the positive reviews matched exactly what I was looking for. My experience with our in-person therapy sessions has fully lived up to those expectations. Going into it, I wasn't entirely aware of all that I was "carrying." Dr. Mitchell created a safe, welcoming environment for me to unpack and resolve lingering issues in my present that were being influenced by my past. The people in my life and my relationships have noticed a genuinely positive impact, and I'm incredibly proud of the work we've done and the tools Dr. Mitchell has provided me. Working with him has been a very enriching and helpful experience. I highly recommend him!

First appointment, he was half an hour late and rude, but figured out what we needed to do. I had three procedures and he was rude, disrespectful, disengaged. And called me out for flinching when he was giving me multiple injections. no hello, how are you, let's get started. Just walked I. and started shoving needles in my back. Then left. I had to ask the nurses if we were done. The scheduling staff and procedure office seem to not talk to each other. Went back for follow up appointment. Waited in lobby for 30 minutes before I just left. 15 minutes after that, the receptionist called me to ask if I was still keeping my appointment. Since I said no, she said "OK , I'll just cancel it.". and hung up. No "Do you want to reschedule?". or "How can I help you?" I'm currently looking for a new doctor.

He came up in conversation today, which has happened many times over the years and it's always about how he constantly upped our doses as children to an excessive level. I have spoken with countless people over the years who had the exact same experience and some people, including myself, started using hard drugs by hooking kids on adderall at such high doses. I've met many of them in AA who went through the same thing with him and started using cocaine and meth due to him. I could go on and on. And every time he comes up, it's always the exact same story and the disbelief that he still has his license . I don't normally write yelp reviews but after meeting another person today who he got hooked on high doses of adderall as a kid and later experienced addiction as a result. I'm not exaggerating when I say tons of parents and kids had the exact same experience with him countless times over the years.
