I haven't been to Raise but Jess has treated someone I love. I have encountered many therapist and…read morethere are many out there who are clinically sufficient. What Jess brings to the table is something more, which was a genuine concern for my child. On one of our conversatios she said " I went on this run and I was thinking about"... she was thinking about my kid and how to help. She made me feel like we ( we because as parents, things that affect our kids affect us) were "seen." I think more often than not people get complacent in their careers, including the medical or mental health field, which I would chalk up to human nature. However, she never made me feel like my kid was number or just another patient. She was someone going through something and Jess was going to figure it out. We had to stop seeing Jess due to some circumstances out of my control. Which only lead us to a merry go round of therapists and it wasn't until then, that I was able to fully appreciate her, not only for her emotional investment in my child but also for her instincts, which were proven to be spot on. While on that mental health merry go round, I learned that not every therapist has the capability to convey a genuine sense of commitment and concern for their client/patient , however Jess did. Taking on someone else's emotional pain, trauma, anxieties and fears has to be one of the hardest jobs I could imagine, especially when it comes to children...so I can understand having and internal shut off valve and not fault anyone needing to enact that protective mechanism. But as a parent who's child hurts....I sure as shit want someone who sees my kid, as I see them. Once again I saw Jess early in her career. Not only do I magine that she has gotten better with time but I imagine now that she has her own practice, she chooses people who values their clients as much as she does. ...I did recently refer someone here and they had positive reviews about Jess, Teena and the facility.

This review is way overdue for me to write. Almost two years ago I was summarily dismissed from my…read moreprior provider of over 10 years when my Cobra insurance ran out and I needed to self-pay for services that, by the sheer nature of needing to see a neurology specialist for them, were formidable enough that this event caused me unnecessary anxiety bordering on panic. Taking my health into my own hands, I began a search for providers that would accept self-pay while using all the resources available on the internet to find reviews, publicly-available professional histories and my gut feeling. JoEllen Butler's practice astonishingly quieted all of those extra doubts and anxieties surrounding being completely blocked from access to treatments that I had been tested for and had medicines prescribed to treat for over a decade. She knew all too well that larger practices often will deny a self-pay option. Unfortunately for me, my doctors at the other practice never mentioned it. Ms. Butler is a gentile, exuberant and extremely knowledgeable professional. The office is lovely with large high-ceilinged offices and a calming waiting room. I tend to get more anxious in small cluttered offices because of a mild-ish case of claustrophobia. She and her office manager-extraordinaire Lisa are so genuine and kind. Lisa never rushes through the intake portion of every appointment and she is always on-point when it comes to submitting refills, returning calls or texts for appointments as well as reminder calls for appointments. I never have to worry that any request I have will slip through the cracks. I can't say enough about Ms. Butler. On my first visit, she thoroughly reviewed the records I brought her from my prior practice and made two small changes to my treatment that improved my quality of life almost immediately. My regimen had not been changed in six years at my prior practice. I can say at this time that I am GLAD they refused to treat me on self-pay. If not for that, I would never have moved on. The day JoEllen Butler's practice either relocates or closes down for her retirement, THAT will be a different story.

But it's still been a total nightmare trying to get on the same medications Dr Earle had me on and I was doing well. Not only that but the fact is that there has been no closure here and after 5 yrs with the same psychiatric Dr. whom you form a relationship with there's a level of trust and that trust has been totally broken. He just stopped practicing and bounced out of his patients lives with no explanation NOTHING!! Chicken shit! Total chicken shit!

When I started to write something (I won't call it a review) for Josefa, I wasn't ready. I wanted what I wrote to mean something and to reflect how I feel about the affect she's had on my life. So, I'll take a shot now, but I'm still not sure I can do her justice. Josefa is a truly gifted person. She not only had an almost immediate understanding of the person I was, but also a tremendous insight into 'why I was' and how I could be the person I wanted to be. It's interesting because I had visited a counselor on and off over many years, whom I thought was good. However, in just two coaching sessions with Josefa, I discovered things about myself that I had neither thought of nor discussed, previously. Over the course of working with Josefa for a few months, she helped me to better understand myself, which led to quite a change in the way I feel about myself and how I interact with the world around me. From session to session, she always was on top of what we had previously discussed and was familiar with issues that were currently affecting my life. And, she was always on point with suggestions on how to best handle situations. Furthermore, the suggestions were ones that I could carry forward with me to future issues. Does everything work out for me now exactly like I want it to... of course not. But, I can certainly handle things much better now than I previously could. It may sound like I was a basket-case prior to working with Josefa. I don't think that's the 'case', but I certainly had issues. I imagine I still do. But, now I have much more of an inner calm about myself and confidence in myself that I never had previously. Thank you, Josefa. You have made a tremendous difference in my life.

He really cares about me and my family. Every I am there he asks me about my situation and he actually REMEMBERS what I have told him from the visit before. Yes, I'm sure he is consulting his notes. But as primarily a med management doctor, he is not required to take such a personal interest in each of his patients. I knew he was genuine from the moment he came out to greet me.

However, some room for improvement: 1) Don't make people do the new patient paperwork twice. I thought, "great, I can do it online and not have to do it in the office." But then you handed me THE EXACT SAME PAPERWORK I'd already filled out and told me you needed a paper copy. Why??? Such a waste of my time. Pick one please. 2) Don't charge a cancellation fee if I'm cancelling through no fault of my own. My son threw up a few hours before my appointment. Being a responsible citizen, I called to reschedule my appointment, but was informed that I'd be charged regardless. I get why you charge this - you want to discourage willy nilly cancellations. But if someone can give you clear evidence that they are actively sick and can't come in, you really shouldn't be charging them for protecting your wellbeing.

I genuinely don't know how a mental health clinic can operate with so little compassion or…read moreunderstanding for the very people who are reaching out because they are struggling. Over the span of a year, I had an appointment scheduled, which I personally had to reschedule once. The next appointment date came around and the provider cancelled on me, so I rescheduled again. Then, when I finally showed up for another appointment, I discovered that the appointment had been scheduled at the wrong office due to an error made by the front desk. So to be clear, when I was later told I had "three cancellations/reschedules" on my record, only ONE of those was actually a reschedule that I initiated myself. Months later, I called again because I am genuinely struggling with my mental health. My sleep has been affected, my relationships and friendships have been affected, and it has gotten to the point where even my own mother has told me that I need to get help. I was actively trying to do exactly that. I specifically explained that Serenity is one of the only offices that works for me because they are open on Saturdays. I work Monday through Friday in the medical field, so I completely understand that policies exist and that the front desk has to follow them. What I don't understand is having absolutely no willingness to show compassion or make an exception when someone is reaching out for mental health care and explaining that they are genuinely struggling. The person I spoke with told me, without any real understanding or empathy, that they could not schedule me because of my previous cancellations/reschedules. I asked if she could please speak with the provider and see whether an exception could be made. I work in healthcare myself, so I understand that there are circumstances where providers can make exceptions. I wasn't asking her to break a policy herself, I was asking her to advocate for a patient who was actively asking for help! Instead, I was essentially met with a door in my face. Mental health care is not something where you should be treating patients like they are simply missing appointments on a spreadsheet. There is a human being on the other end of that phone call who may already be struggling to find the motivation to ask for help in the first place. And this is exactly why I find this policy so concerning: when the majority of the circumstances being held against me were either **provider cancellations or an office scheduling error**, I should not be treated as though I repeatedly chose not to show up for care. If your specialty is mental health, compassion, understanding, and knowing when a situation warrants an exception should be at the center of what you do. A rigid policy means very little if the people enforcing it cannot recognize when the person on the other end of the phone genuinely needs help. I called because I was trying to get help for myself. I left feeling like I was being punished for circumstances that were not even entirely within my control. If your policies are going to prevent people who are actively struggling from receiving care, I strongly encourage this clinic to reconsider those policies! and, more importantly, reconsider whether the people enforcing them understand the severity of the population they are serving. Btw i work in the medical field at an allergy clinic and make exceptions because I CARE AND WANT to help me patients for something as small as sneezing, this clinic is refusing to help in a life or death situation. Offices who truly care about their patients don't shut them out when they ask for help, I know because i do it for patients ALL THE TIME.
