These people do not belong anywhere near trauma victims. I called while experiencing extreme PTSD…read moresymptoms from a recent trauma and Jenny Stevenson hurriedly set up an appointment for me telling me I'd be charged 450 just for an initial consultation. That was the first red flag. Next, I called to reschedule my consultation due to a conflict and Jenny immediately emailed me that I would still be charged the 450, and said I couldn't reschedule. I informed her that she did not have my consent to do this and she sent me a very terse email saying that they wouldn't work with me. Wish I'd read the reviews before contacting. These people are unprofessional and unethical.

I can honestly say that if Laurie didn't help mediate my relationship with my parents and help guide me through school as a lost little boy, I wouldn't be here today. If you are looking for a family therapist, there is no better choice than Laurie Roth. I can not endorse her enough. Thank you Laurie!!!

At various times she has helped my then-9 year old son get the help he needed for depression related to an undiagnosed learning disability; she's helped mediate disagreements with my teenage son about video games and worked with him privately as well.

We trust that she has our best interests at heart and that she can help us to deal with whatever issue we are facing. Our lives would be very different without her help.

In short term therapy (3 - 6 months), we address your most important concerns in a goal focused way - and achieve results.

Mary has a kind and grounded presence and an excellent ability to hold space for big emotions in the room. I love the approach she takes in calling one back to one's body to locate where an emotion or feeling is held, which I find extremely helpful in the process of releasing it. Her compassion paired with her wonderful sense of humor brings a lovely balance and lightness into her work. Mary is an excellent listener and provides clear and succinct reflection during our sessions. I have found her to be extremely helpful for couples sessions and my partner and I have benefited from her counsel. We have gained better listening and communication skills with each other which needless to say, helps our relationship hugely! Also, she accepts MediCal which made it possible for us to see her every week. Definitely highly recommend Mary!

I was seeking help from a very traumatic car accident and the loss of a loved one. Since my issues…read moreare stemming from the accident and that became apparent after my first session I was told that they would not be willing to support me if I ended up needing legal help. Apparently this is in the fine print of the agreement I signed at my first session. It is extremely hard for me to reach out to a therapist and begin therapy in the first place. I feel even more stressed and depressed after opening up to them and finding out at the end of my session and $150.00 later that they would recommend I find another therapist that would be more willing to help in a situation like mine. I have since spoken with a few therapists and I now ask ahead of time if this would be an issue. I have been told that it is highly unusual for a therapist to take this stand. Unfortunately I did really like Claudia and wish I could have kept working with her. I didn't know this was something I even needed to ask about. I was really very surprised when Claudia brought it up towards end of my very emotional session. I should have read all the fine print in their agreement before the session began but I had no idea this would something I needed to inquire about. I know now. I hope this review helps someone going through a similar situation. It is even more upsetting because when I made the appointment on our phone interview I told her what had happened and why I was seeking therapy. I could of course continue therapy but that they would not be willing to help if I needed them to share my records or speak with legal counsel. I am paying for this myself as they didn't take my insurance, I don't feel like this practice cared about me as a person and was just looking for more cut and dry clients. I am having a very rough time of it and disappointed I had this experience and even started with them.
