I've been seeing Ariel since June and I'm so happy and thankful to have met her! Ariel is genuine,…read morefirm, and easy to talk to. 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. Healing is such a beautiful thing. (:

On Saturdays at 10am and Wednesdays at noon Helen leads a fantastic group of people (of different levels) on a meditation journey.

Cost is on a donation basis with no pressure to donate. Next time? Gonna try some of that tea that Helen serves up!

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!

Dr. Nicole has been such a great resource for my daughters and our family. One of my girls was…read moreexcited to start therapy, while the other was a little unsure at first. 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.

Where do I start this pretty lady is amazing and the best of the best! My wife has been seeing her…read morefor over 6 years. Then we started to see her as a couples therapist. I know weird why would I have not picked someone that doesn't know nothing about my wife and I. Well for me it was better this way. I felt like if something was wrong or wasn't going well in my relationship I can explain it to her and she would understand better because she has already been working with the Wifey. She would have a better understand of what I was talking about. What I love about Mrs. Amie is that even thou she wasn't my therapist to start with she has never pick sides or favor one more then the other. About 1 year ago my boo and I had to relocate to the Bay Area and this had been super hard for both of us but more I feel for me since I had to give up everything that took me years to build. That being said I was getting really really depress but being about to still have Amie as my therapist and couple therapist. I truly feel like she has saved my life. Now I don't mean that I was going to kill myself now. But she has help me not be down in the gutters. I'm so happy to say that thanks to her and the phone and face time I still get to see her or talk to her once a week. Of if you are looking for someone that is kind, careing, super smart, warm, cute to look at, honest, but most of all amazing. This pretty lady is your answer! You won't regret it. I promise you!

I never like to leave a review that isn't positive, sadly, my experience with Erin was…read moredisappointing. She is a great person, she had a great energy. However my joint session with my ex-husband and Erin was literally the turning point of the failure of our marriage. He was a complete narcissist, and during the session, I remember clearly discussing something heavy and crying, and my ex was literally "shooting the shit" with her, talking over me (typical dismissive gaslighting behavior I was accustomed to)...and she was chuckling with him. Ignored me as I tried to finally open communication with him. Then she literally looked at me and in front of him, said, "I think you are the problem." So the "safe place" turned into another episode of the 'Todd Show'. Humiliating beyond belief and I felt like I was thrown under the bus of my own trip to healing. WTF?! Well, years after our divorce, I am happy, self-sufficient, and healthy, which is what matters the most. Maybe she could've been more present during our sessions, she didn't even remember some extremely traumatic events in my childhood I shared. Which is hard enough to do as is. Take notes, please Erin. That experience with you still haunts me to this day and I often wonder, had I selected a therapist with more experience, maybe I wouldn't be a single mother now? She is a great person, I did feel comfortable with her so I don't mean any harm with this review. But I am the one with these depressing memories of what could've been....everything happens for a reason? Or did I manifest the end of my union by hiring her. Sadly I flaked on the last of the appointments because I didn't have the nerve to tell her I was angry and disappointed.

And it will certainly impact you mentally. Mental clarity and the ability to be most connected with the best of who we are, requires effort and focus. While we have to do the work, finding the right therapist to help us navigate that path should be one of the first steps. I don't need to tell you how qualified Erin is because you can see that on her website. I'll tell you about my experience with her. Erin made me feel at ease and safe from day one. She has been consistently open-minded, non-judgmental, and empathetic. She is a good listener and a good communicator. She worked with me to create a session flow that works for me, and has often provided me with tools to help me continue my progress on my own. If you have faced fears about therapy, or have had difficulty finding a therapist, give her a call. You deserve it!

From the first interaction, the staff was professional, compassionate, and genuinely attentive. The clinicians take the time to truly listen and create a treatment approach that feels personalized rather than rushed or generic. The environment is calm, welcoming, and well-organized, which makes a big difference when seeking mental health support. They felt respected, supported, and confident in the care they received throughout the process. A few were Veterans and needed help with Trauma and PTSD related issues. Their outcomes were fantastic. I highly recommend Pacific Mind Health to anyone looking for high-quality, ethical, and compassionate mental health care.

Her approach to therapy makes you realize that we are not defined by the mistakes or traumas of our past, but rather from the person we are today and the person we want to become. I am deeply grateful for Monica's therapy sessions. She made me realize that no matter what trauma or guilty we have from our past, there's always an alternative and a way for us to heal, accept; and move on to become the best version of ourselves.

Alexis is an amazing beautiful soul. She is an incredibly insightful & perspective therapist…read more This past Saturday, I attended Alexis 4hr Experimental Workshop for Women finding where our success and happiness intersect called Identity Maintenace with Alexis Maron. I attended this workshop already in a healthy relationship, family, state of mind and place in my life. My goal was to overcome my fear to move forward on a goal I set 4 years ago. I have accomplished so many other goals but this particular goal, I've taken many courses to help me move forward in the past but I just couldn't understand why I was struggling. Within this short 4 hours, WOW, did I find out WHY. I am beyond thankful for Alexis teachings, the WHOLE course was mind-blowing in a positive way. The best part was, I've learned more about myself without her really saying anything. It was her creative games that helped us all, including the ladies who attended (which I would like to add, we all connected so beautifully), for whatever purpose brought us there, find our breakthrough to move forward. My message to anyone reading this: I've been through ALOT in life, since I was 5 years old. Investing in yourself is one of the best return on investments you can make. It goes back to the idea that if you give yourself first, you'll have more available to others. Note: Alexis has helped my 19 year old son as well, overcome his struggles with life. Now, he hires her for Life Coaching, which I am so very thankful for.

A few words to describe Alexis would be genuine, compassionate, observant, intelligent, and funny…read more Alexis has been my counselor and life coach and on off for a few years and I can't say enough wonderful things about her. Most importantly though is her genuine desire to help. Unlike other therapists I have seen, Alexis is fully engaged and present in our sessions unlike anyone else. She makes you feel like you are her only client and she is there to truly help you in your evolution of growth and change as person. Because of her I am able to see life's challenges and demands in new ways that I never would have seen before. And finally, Alexis is not only a great therapist and listener but she enables you with your own set of tools to be able to face life's challenges head on, which to me is the sign of a great therapist! I am forever grateful for what she has done for me!

EMDR has helped me process and release deep-seated traumas that once felt insurmountable. It enabled me to revisit painful memories with a sense of safety and to reframe my narrative in a way that empowered me. Somatic Experiencing allowed me to reconnect with my body, releasing stored tension and fostering a renewed sense of grounding and vitality. I felt supported, respected, and guided in a way that honored my unique journey. An IFS approach has allowed me to explore and heal parts of myself I didn't even realize were influencing my thoughts and behaviors. The sessions were all tailored to my needs, and the integration of approaches worked beautifully together, creating a holistic healing experience that addressed my mind, body, and spirit. The transformation I've undergone is evident not only to me but also to those around me. I feel lighter, more present, and more in tune with myself. 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.
