I am now on the life path I've always wanted to be on. I see Barbara once a month now, to help ground myself and stay focused on what matters in life! She is easy to talk to with no judgement and what's most important is she genuinely cares for her clients!

My Life has changed since the first day I sat down with Barbara. I found her simply by googling…read morehypnotherapy in my area, and feel like the universe brought me to this wonderful woman. I would imagine that hypnotherapy, as does any type of therapy, depends a lot on finding the right person to connect with and guide you. Barbara is definitely worth trying, I can't imagine that anyone could not connect with her. She offers a safe, serene and tranquil environment; with a warm and positive energy to accompany the abundance of knowledge she delightfully shares. She is very reasonably priced and I believe offers a student discount. Being that I am new to hypnosis I was not sure what to expect and she explained everything thoroughly and made me feel confident. It worked for me the first time. The hypnosis sessions I have been doing are not to "fix one thing" but more to answer questions, learn about myself and let go of the negative. In addition to productive hypnosis, she has been a spiritual guide in my life. I do not feel like a client, she offers personal information about herself and past experiences which makes me feel comfortable to share with her and feel confident that she is passionate about her work and not just in it for the money. If I am not able to come on a regular basis, she does not hold it against me and will check on me out of nowhere and often at times I am stressed or in need of warm words of motivation. She makes herself available for quick chats after "regular" hours, although I do not abuse this. She has thoughtfully given me meditation cd's because I had expressed my desire to begin meditating and offers real solutions from resources in her own life, to obstacles in my life. If you are considering hypnosis or seeking spiritual guidance, Barbara is a gifted woman to consider!

I'll admit I did not feel or wanted to be in therapy the first 2 sessions. It was after further evaluation and Matthews EMDR therapy, I then realized how significant his help was. Matthew is very welcoming, knowledgeable, and professional. I felt safe and comfortable since day 1. He helped me out with my PTSD in steps and after months of weekly therapy, I can say my traumas that I have experienced don't bother me like they use to. My only regret is not seeing someone way earlier, but Matthew has helped and teach me how to overcome. I highly recommend Matthew services.

I went to see Caree Brown as part of a divorce I am going through. I called three different local…read moretherapists and Caree reached out super fast. Caree was able to help me evaluate my past relationship and see things in a different perspective which really helped me get to the other side. I can't praise her enough.

I could not overstate the impact Caree has had on me and my family. While counseling support/advice…read moreis highly personal, I can attest that Caree's philosophy and approach is straightforward, simple in nature and therefore easy to apply. Listening to excellent advice is great, but actually implementing change is transformative. Caree provides easy to understand tools, that apply to real life and can be used anytime and anywhere. Her approach is underwritten by a sincere desire to listen, and allow the individual to fully express themselves before opining on what is to be done. No psychological-speak, Caree makes you comfortable because she is relatable and kind in her approach. Her office is warm and inviting - a place you're always happy to go back to. I highly recommend Caree to anyone and everyone.

Whitney is all of the things I needed in a therapist but never experienced. I wasn't so sure after…read moreour first session if I'd be returning for a second as she offered something I wasn't ready to accept- someone who accepted me as me and created a loving, safe place for me to just be me. We joke about it all these years later, but coming back for those follow up sessions would be exactly what I needed and truthfully, what I was lacking in my life. Whitney embodies compassion, care, empathy, and love and provides the safety of allowing me to show up as I am on any given day ready to help me unpack whatever I bring her. I came to her at a point in my life when I had shattered as a person. She has been by my side through some incredibly challenging times and there isn't anyone else that I would want in my corner when life happens. Whitney is an incredible therapist. If you are looking for someone who will see you as you are, accept you as you are, and who will walk by your side as you navigate the triumphs and challenges life throws at you, she is the one you need. I think she's pretty amazing and am thankful for her every day.

A few years ago, I found myself at dark point in my life. After a whirlwind of an 8 years in which…read moreI lost some of the most important people in my life, in addition to the pandemic and the ramifications of it, I knew it was time to seek help. I tried one avenue, but it just didn't work. So I went on a search for a different therapist. And that search went on day after day, hour after hour. I spoke to some, but nothing ever felt like it was the right fit. Until one day, when I was feeling defeated, I stumbled upon Whitney. I took a look at her website and read her reviews and felt hopeful for the first time in days. From the moment I first spoke to Whitney, I knew she was the one to help me. Two years later, and I can say with absolute certainty that choosing Whitney to be my therapist was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Whitney is compassionate, thoughtful, and incredibly knowledgeable. She knows how to create a warm, comfortable and supportive environment where you feel safe to tell her all your thoughts and feelings. She's patient and kind, and never gives up on finding ways to help you. She has been such a positive light in my life, and has helped me overcome so much. While I'm still a work in progress, it's all thanks to Whitney that I have made it this far. And that is why I recommend and will always recommend Whitney. If you're looking for someone to help you get back onto the path to happiness, you've found her.

I have never once felt uncomfortable or unsafe while seeing her.If you want somebody who truly cares about and wants nothing but the best for their clients as well adapts their therapy style to each individual client then this is who you need. They have all their credentials hanging on the walls in both of their offices. She has gone to very prestigious colleges has her own private practice as well as working in multiple very well known hospitals. They truly care about the people that they work with. They're always punctual and never have canceled an appointment on me. They have helped me improve my life beyond words, I am forever grateful for the help that they have given me.

It is hard to explain what a difficult experience I had dealing with Ionascu. Her manner was curt,…read moreunreceptive/unsympathetic and not helpful in the performance of neuro-psychological testing. (I am loath to use the term "Doctor" as she got a PsyD from a second-rate institution, "The Wright Institute", that will give anyone with enough time and money a degree that allows them to use that coveted term. I heard a psychologist with a PhD from the University of California, San Francisco called it the "Wrong Institute" because she said the students were practically innumerate, i.e., they could barely do math she taught in psych classes. A PsyD is nothing more than a high-sounding professional technician's degree with limited insight into the theoretical foundations of the psychology and physiology of neuropsychology. One of her websites claim she got her training at UCSF. One class, 2 days, maybe.) Briefly, her office setup for neuro-psychological evaluation is ergonomically poor with problematic equipment layout and rickety equipment and nothing to accommodate different body types. Some of the equipment is improperly positioned for the requirements of the evaluative instrument/test being administered. Some of the testing conditions lacked privacy and, potentially, in violation of health privacy laws. I could go on but suffice it to say that considering how much she charges for her services it ought to be better. I went to her because the only other people in the area approved to do the testing were booked far into the future and Ionascu could accommodate the timeline I was forced into by the FAA. Now I understand why. She is second-rate and if I had to do this again I would choose any other neuro-psych evaluator in the Bay Area (or travel long distances) instead of her even with the long wait the others might have. She may be good for some people but beware of her limited capabilities and unprofessional approach.
