All the while protected our relationship from anything that hurts our goals together. We will probably never stop therapy and see it as important as any other healthcare.

Dumbfounded I put in a quirky answer like; idk unicorns and rainbows? She obviously hated that response and I got a long email about how she's refusing to take me because I'm a "danger to her staff." I feel so dehumanized due to my diagnosis and answering my trauma in detail thru paper work... do you know how hard that is to do alone when your seeking help? if you want to be treated like a human being with empathy don't come here they are extremely belittling and will treat you like a robot.

I can't recommend Achieve Counseling & Wellness enough. I've referred family and friends because I…read morewant my loved ones to benefit the way I have. From the online scheduling to the friendly support staff, the whole experience feels welcoming. Working with Dr. Jennifer Burruel has been life-changing. She's approachable, real, and I've never felt judged. I used to think therapy was just talking to someone sympathetic, but she showed me it's so much more. She's helped me heal and learn tools that have made a difference in my career, my relationships, and how I feel day to day. I feel more confident, more capable, and genuinely at peace. If you're looking for a therapist who's highly skilled, truly cares, genuinely herself, and who will respectfully and supportively encourage you to grow, Dr. Burruel is it. I should also mention that those I've referred to the practice have reported positive experiences working with Emily and Maritza as well.

I've been working with Dr. Jennifer Burruel for about a year and to say she's changed my life is an…read moreunderstatement. I've been working with various therapists for the last 3+ years and while I've had several really great ones - Dr. Burruel's expertise, honesty, and genuine compassion is unmatched. I originally started therapy because I had no one else to talk to about deep or important things, but have stayed over the years for much more. In the last year I've been able to talk through major career changes and plans, relationship struggles, mindset changes, healthier and happier life choices, and honestly sometimes just to vent and talk to a highly educated person who is an excellent listener. I've never felt judged, uncomfortable, or pushed in any direction. Lastly, another very important variable for me is the quality of the admin work - or the people/team responsible for billing, questions, and general communication between sessions. Golda and the team at Achieve Counseling and Wellness are the gold standard! Golda has always been very helpful, responsive, and has done everything for me from rescheduling, fighting billing with insurance companies, and answering any questions I have. I've left a lot of great providers because of the incompetency of the support staff - that is certainly not the case here. If you're new to therapy, I can't think of a more safe and welcoming place to start. If you're not new, stop wasting your time and switch to the hardest working, most thoughtful, and well organized professional in the state of AZ!

In addition, she has retained my $300 deposit! I have been dealing with this since November 2024 (and now it is end of February 2025)!!! It is simply unacceptable to treat a patient this way! Irina - you need to code the insurance correctly though EAP! You need to refund my $300 ASAP! And you should stop charging FMLA $50 PER PAGE for your patients. You seem to just steal and offer NO assistance or ease as a therapist!!! I have since found an amazing therapist and she agrees, your policies and now disgusting treatment of me needs to be reported!!!

Some random guy we saw knocked on her office door three times and she wasn't there. We waited outside for 15 minutes and nothing. So unprofessional. So bizarre. Save yourself the headache.

I have had total success with Todd's weight loss program. I've been at it since end of February and…read morehave already lost 50 pounds. I still have another 50 to go and I KNOW that I will make it because of Todd's program. I highly recommend him for any wight loss issue you may have. It's so worth it. Sessions are usually spread out over 2 to 3 months. Todd is a really funny guy, I would go see him in the evenings- usually his last session because of where I worked. He was particularly funny at that time. He knows exactly how to make you comfortable and he's super trustworthy. I loved going to see him and talking about the successes that were happening. The mp3s are also really good. I still listen to them. He always recommended that I listen to at least 1 each day while in the process. If that's the maintenance I need to keep off the weight then I have no problem with that!

It has taken me some time to write this review. The person who I had a consultation with was so…read moreincredibly mean, that I feared retaliation, particularly in such a vulnerable time of my life. I am going to give you a play by play of exactly what occurred at Miami Hypnosis Center. I sought out help because I was going through a period of very terrible panic attacks. I couldn't even drive without disabling anxiety. I had to call family and friends while crossing the Miami Beach bridge because I felt that I was deprived of oxygen. I started feeling particularly anxious after I read a book called "The Primal Wound," which discusses the implications of adoption on the infant brain. I stand by the fact that this book likely resurfaced feelings of trauma and fear from being separated from my birth mother at an early age. However, I wasn't told about my adoption until I was 18, which I'm sure only infused additional trauma, as it was told to me in a family fight. I have written a book about my own experience. The title is "Why Aren't You Like Me, The Brochure Said You Would Be." I am currently pursuing a doctorate in counseling and would like to work in the school system. What I do know, given my credentials is the following: a) People in minority groups need to be believed regarding their experiences with racism, sexism, etc. This includes adopted people. Adopted people need to have their voices heard b) Anyone in a professional setting that involves counseling needs to have compassion c) There is A LOT of corruption in the adoption industry. I can provide you with a plethora of links and resources that prove this as true. There is a lot of coercion and blackmailing involved in mothers signing away their rights. The reason is because there are about 42 parents on a waitlist for every newborn child at risk of being relinquished. The only adoptions that cost money are for newborn infants. Agencies do not accept children over 1 year old (which is why my sister and I were not adopted together). Whoever doesn't recognize that there is corruption is the adoption industry is blind and cannot help people With that being said, I will proceed to tell you what happened with my experience with Gina Goodwin last summer. During our session, I explained to her that I believed my panic attacks were stemming from infant trauma and tried to show her the book that I was reading at the time. I was explaining that the book discussed how infant trauma is stored in our brains, but not coded with visual and auditory stimuli, making it difficult to identify triggers. She looked at me, put a face of disgust, and put the palm of her hand towards me, telling me: "I don't need to see that." I then explained that losing my cousin a few years ago was also a very traumatic experience. He passed from an aggressive cancer and essentially, the surgery that we had been promised could save his life, ended up killing him. My cousin and I were very close. We were raised more as siblings and we loved each other very much. He was 19 when he passed away. I was 20 years old. Life was only beginning to blossom for me when these two experiences happened that would change my life forever. So, you can imagine my surprise, when her reaction to my tragic story was: "Why were you so hurt over just your cousin?" I briefly spoke to her about the corruption that is occurring in the adoption industry and how I feel that this corruption is only infusing more trauma on people involved with adoption. Her response: "I'm pretty sure that's illegal." The corruption that is happening IS legal. But then again, so was slavery. Things that ARE illegal are happening every day: murder, kidnapping, human trafficking. Since when is the law a deterrent or an invitation for the criminal mind? Either Ms. Goodwin has no people skills or she and I simply had no chemistry. Nevertheless, her attitude was unprofessional and unnecessary. I would never place myself in such a vulnerable position at the hands of such a wicked person who fails to validate the pain and suffering of an individual. With a bright smile (for the first time in the session), she made a grandiose claim that she could solve all of my problems for about $2000. No, thank you. I'm grateful I ended up moving and wasn't baited into this thievery of a "counseling method." There is no way that such unprofessional service can be deemed credible.

He had been on medications that did nothing and we were beginning to lose hope. So this was amazing! The staff has been excellent in getting prior authorizations for this medication and worked with our insurance above and beyond to make it affordable. We have been to many other Doctors along this journey , but Dr Bonner is heads and shoulders above treating the whole patient and encouraging and guiding the family . Her help has been awesome and changed our lives! We can't recommend her enough.

One hand does not know what the other is doing at this clinic. Communication with and within the…read moreclinic is frightful. Lots of miscommunications and misfires . Just one of many examples is that they told me that my insurance does not require pre authorization for TMS treatment ,and yet at the same time they requested pre authorization from my insurance -without my even having consulted anyone there about whether TMS treatment was suitable for me and without my consent--and it was denied. This was after my initial meeting for an hour with someone about other treatment options who knew nothing about TMS, after which at my request, she instructed the front desk to have someone contact me to make an appointment to meet with the psychiatrist who administers the TMS to get my questions answered and see if it might be right for me. They totally dropped the ball on this . And went ahead and submitted the pre authorization request for TMS all the while telling me that it was not needed ,that the treatment was covered. SO GLAD I found another provider that is excellent and that I avoided this clinic.

Finding a good therapist can be challenging. It's a delicate match between the person giving the…read moretherapy and the client(s) receiving it. Sandy is the ultimate professional. She is constantly looking to learn and improve her skills as a therapist, both in continuing her education and in teaching various classes. Probably one of Sandy Jardine's best qualities is that she tailors her therapy to the people she sees. She does not have a "one size fits all" approach. This allows Sandy to treat each client as they need to be treated, rather than using her own preferred method of therapy. What are some of the things which made Sandy a good therapist for me? She listened to what I said and also what I didn't say. She made me think for myself, but she also gave me concrete suggestions to solve my issues. For example, when I had trouble sleeping due to constant thinking, she offered a number of different ideas which could help me to get back to sleep. Sandy made me feel safe even when I shared some of my less desireable actions/thoughts. She helped me to learn a lot about myself, make positive changes, and ultimately feel that I had accomplished what I needed to. When I no longer had anything I wanted to talk about, I knew it was time to leave therapy. Sandy helped me through the process and told me I was always welcome to come back -- if needed -- for as short or as long as I want. I highly recommend Sandy Jardine to anyone who is looking for a therapist. LJS
