She has helped me immensely in learning about myself and others. Something I really appreciate about her style is that she helps you make these discoveries for yourself, by leading you through questions, rather than just teaching psycho-philosophy. I would highly recommend Nina as a therapist to anyone who seeks therapeutic/intuitive guidance, who seeks to better understand himself vis-a-vis others, or who seeks a sharp mind to help dissect complex and troubling issues.

She suggested programs including Positive Intelligence and BeYou. Those programs combined with 1x1 sessions with Dr. Cindy, literally changed my life.

I…read moredidn't realize how much I needed therapy at the time, and I was a bit skeptical of talk therapy in general, but after a couple sessions with Adina, I became convinced that this was exactly what I needed. Adina is an amazing therapist and is really great at asking the right questions to help me identify my thought patterns and where they came from. She listens with compassion and empathy. I came to her with a dismissive attitude towards myself and my own emotional well-being, but she was able to help me understand that I deserve love and that my feelings deserve to be heard. She is also incredibly knowledgeable in her field, and I ended up learning quite a bit about psychology just from our conversations about how my mind worked. I ended almost every session feeling inspired and having learned a little bit more about myself. Working with Adina is one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking therapy or support during difficult times.

Adina was exactly the therapist I needed to find perspective, clarity, and support. I give her the highest possible recommendation.

I find his training in psychoanalysis increases the resources he has available in order to help me clearly see my weaknesses. His billing rate is very fair.

I have tried many treatments for my general anxiety and gone to many different in person therapists. I finally decided to give Soft Reboot Wellness a try and I am so grateful that I did. Dr Sara Herman made me feel immediately comfortable at her practice and answered any questions that I had. I have been going to her office in Menlo Park for ketamine therapy and recently had a Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) for my anxiety. I had been looking all over the bay area for an integrative medicine practice like this one. Every session for my ketamine therapy was unique and included a post treatment call with her incredible assistant, Shade. From the moment you walk into the center, you feel at ease. I knew exactly what would happen and when which helped me feel comfortable. The first ketamine therapy relieved my ongoing anxiety symptoms for 3 months after my treatment before I returned for another. The deeply personal work done in treatment was supported by Dr Herman's warmth and understanding. I felt so seen and validated by what came up for me during treatment. After about a year, I told Dr Sara Herman that I was still having some panic attacks and anxiety around day to day tasks. That is when she suggested a Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB). She explained what the procedure entailed and Shade gave me a call a week prior to go over what was expected before/after. Once I left Soft Reboot Wellness with my SGB, I felt a huge sense of relief wash over me. I hadn't realized how much my anxiety impacted my every day and every thought. Over the next week, I encountered so many situations that would've triggered a panic attack, but I was able to navigate past them smoothly. I even started to have deeper sleep and felt it easier to work through my daily emotions. I am forever indebted to Soft Reboot Wellness for truly changing the way I move through the world. I am so grateful to have found something that works so well for my mind, body, and soul.

We had tried individual talk therapy without any success. Guide is different in that they focus on teaching and practicing skills so that your child learns how to stay emotionally regulated and manage their depression and anxiety symptoms. There is group therapy, individual therapy, and family sessions to learn and practice skills and build resilience. My daughter particularly liked the CBT and creative sessions. During her time at Guide, my daughter became less withdrawn and more able to engage with our family and her peers. She also really gained tools to stay regulated during conflict. The team at Guide is great. They are very kind and communicative. They worked with her school to make sure she was excused from classes without falling behind. We paid our deductible and co-pay at intake, and they billed our insurance directly. Our insurance covered most of the program cost. It was very easy. Thank you so much to the team at Guide. Your program had a positive and permanent impact on my daughter.

The staff at Guide is welcoming and felt supportive initially, but I agree with other reviewers that, unfortunately, they are not well organized and seemed understaffed. I was told when I called that they have support and space for homework; they don't. We had to ask for the first meeting with the psychiatrist, because nothing was scheduled for the first 2 weeks; even after that, we had to ask for regular meetings to review medication. No family meeting or official updates on the progress. Our son had another crisis, which led to hospitalization, after his therapist, unprofessionally, told him he was diagnosed with schizophrenia (just an "hypothesis" as she clarified to him, but the damage was done already...) On top of all that, they took the money in advance for the out-of-network deductible, and after more than a month, they still haven't filed the claim with the insurance.

Her process is challenging, thought provoking and insightful and I leave with a better understanding of myself and my partner. The sessions are directed by us, so if we need to use our time to focus on issues that recently came up, we can work and talk about them. Especially now, as we are unexpectedly placed in this stay at home order, find her service invaluable and "essential" for quarantine living. Our zoom sessions can be even more productive as we can connect with her while being at home, where it can be easier to relax and open up. A lot of people have a specialist nowadays for all the different aspects in their lives but they often neglect one of the most important ones - their relationship. She is our relationship specialist.

She is harsh, unprofessional…read moreand offers extreme measures that will destroy your life and your relationships with the ones who matter to you the most, your loved ones: your kids and family. I have been living through an absolute nightmare after trusting her and following her advice thinking she is the professional and expert. She has been the worst mistake ever. I should have known when she said: "go back to the village", and I should have know when during our paid therapy sessions she would make personal calls, walk around her home drinking and eating, answering her door to greet guest and cooking. We never had a serious, quiet real therapy session focused just on me, the patient. She would yell at me and put me down. There is no compassion, warmth or empathy in this therapist. in her own words: " you will write a bad review". So many red flags I ignored because I was suffering and was in pain. Please look elsewhere if you want real help from a real therapist who actually takes the time to understand and care for your wounds and what you are going through. She does not. This is my first yelp review ever! I hope you read this Azizeh and I hope you reflect on the care you did not give me. You told me to call the cops on my child - which destroyed my relationship completely and forever with him and fractured his relationship with his siblings. Azizeh, you need to read this and understand the consequences of me being under you care. You are not fit to provide care for those who desperately reach out to you for help. You made matters worse. I came to you to feel safe and heard not to mentally beaten and battered even more. You are cruel hearted and you know it. You should not be allowed to practice healing people. You must reflect on yourself now on the irreparable damage you cost to the ones who paid you to help them heal and learn how to move on after trauma and grief. That's not what you did - you gave me a grenade to throw at my family. No one should seek your advice. If anyone else is having the same experience or similar run, turn around and run as fast as you can. Go to a therapist that provides actual mental health care and not one that makes you more mental. Better yet, just don't even start here.

I actually came on today-- years later to give her a review because I want to get in touch with her and let her know what a huge impact she had on my life... at that time I wasn't capable of thanking her.
