He helped my son through a terrible time in his life. Although I would have been willing to continue bringing my son to him, as I saw the good it was doing, Dr. Skelton was so honorable that he told me that my son didn't need to be seen anymore. He left me with good advice going forward and an open door if I ever needed it. He gave up a hefty monthly fee as he was being honest and authentic. It would have been easy for him to keep us going and making good money. But he didn't. He is professional and an upstanding man. I personally feel that any negative comments on here are unwarranted and unfair. I would recommend Dr. Skelton to anyone and stand by that. He changed my sons life in a matter of months. The fact that he told us that we didn't need to come or pay for session a anymore spoke volumes to me. He is honest and truly cares. Plus, he was right! My son is now thriving at school, making new friends, secure in himself and happy. The only thing lacking in his life are his sessions with Jay! He truly developed a bond with him and is often keen to "fill Jay in" on how he is doing. Dr. Skelton left us saying that if we ever needed to call him for advice that he would always be there. I believe that and will call him if I ever need it. I am so thankful to have met such an honorable and talented child whisperer! P..S. Please remember that this forum includes all parties. I have a feeling that any negative remarks on Yelp were made by parents who just didn't like hearing the truth. It's easy to blame others. It's much harder to look yourself in the mirror and own the truth. Dr Skelton is so upfront that he calls it how it is. That's important. The only way to allow your kids to heal is to listen without defensiveness and to make changes that are recommended. Recommended by Dr. Skelton, because he knows what he is doing. Thank you Jay for all you have done.

This review is not regarding the in house staff- this is regarding Avery Lane as a corporation…read more They lied to me and said my claim was denied through my insurance and charged me cash only to discover the insurance covered one week at the end of my stay. instead of comping me the offered a "free week". They also screwed up my disability claim- I received a letter from the state of Ca saying they are not accredited and they denied me. I emailed Avery Lane numerous times and was brushed off- the couple of times they actually replied.

We've been seeing Sheena for couples therapy for several months now, and we can honestly say she's…read morehelped us change the way we communicate, not just with each other, but with our kids too. This week, we walked in after a stressful trip to Disneyland (with two little kids, no less), and what could've turned into another argument actually became one of our most productive conversations. Sheena helped us slow down, name what was really going on under the surface, and find common ground instead of staying stuck in our usual dynamic of resentment or shutdown. We leave sessions feeling more like a team, even when we're dealing with big parenting challenges or feeling triggered. We've had therapists before who just gave advice or stayed too neutral, but Sheena actually gets in there with you and helps you work through the tough stuff. If you're a couple that loves each other but keeps hitting the same walls, Sheena is the real deal. We're so grateful for her.

As a Chinese, I need to admit Heide is an exceptional healer, great listener, and incredibly knowledgeable herbalist of Chinese medicine. Her office is clean, friendly, and inviting. The fire room is warm and relaxing and I never feel rushed with Heide. She takes the time to get to know my symptoms after the previous visit and makes a treatment plan from there. Even my work stress can be relieved with her magical needles. Even though I've moved to San Francisco, I'd come back to visit her once a month. I would highly recommend Heide for anyone with a physical or emotional complaint. She will help you out!

She did more than help. She Completely took away the pain and discomfort for her in about 4 sessions. Thanks Heidi!

Hello I am a woman age 39. I counselor referred me to Lilo. I was always unsure how I felt about…read moretherapy. I felt that "talking" cant solve everything. I scheduled my appointment and it was different and I was not fully open to it even after 1yr of appointments. I am saying this because I now understand that this is a journey. I never understood what taking accountability is, I only assumed it meant admitting you are wrong. My life flipped upside down 3yrs ago and only last year I finally got it. I went back to Lilo and she welcomed me with open arms and it felt so good. It felt so good to talk to someone that has seen my growth, Lilo during an appoint said to me after I shared "I am hurt and angry for you, this was not ok." No one has ever said that to me. There a little things that stick with you when you talk to a professional. There is a guidance and confidence when taking advice. Lilo is knowledgeable, empathetic, and really sees things from both sides. Her words of advice and confirmations have helped me become patient, have perspective, keeping my cool because everything is ok because I am doing the work. Weather life has pushed you off a cliff with no bottom, or put up a wall to stop you, please give therapy a chance. You deserve happiness. It takes time but just do the work and I promise you will feel it. Be open and honest. I love you.

First step into her office and I felt much calmer (and wanting to steal a few decorative ideas!). She had me fill out a few papers on my medical history, then proceeded to ask me some questions. She then lay me on a table and stuck some needles all over me and I promptly fell asleep. After the treatment, she inquired on my being and I realized that my headache was gone! And it's been gone for 3-4 weeks now. Delia is amazing! I highly recommend anyone to go see her! I will definitely be back!

She intentionally integrated herself into what was already a NASTY divorce between my ex-spouse and myself. We took our 2 year old son to see her because he was acting out in preschool. Instead of focusing on my son, she inserted herself between my ex and I and went as far as to tell me that I "needed to stay with him". She definitely crossed professional lines and acted WAY out of her scope. She is a nightmare and did much more damage than good. The situation continued as she began to converse with my ex-spouse for months during and AFTER the divorce. It was horrible! Please seek other means of counseling, she is very unprofessional and the opposite of therapeutic. I should have reported her but the divorce was traumatizing enough. PLEASE AVOID!
