I have been seeing Anne since I was a few years out of High School. She is beyond exceptional. Despite initial hesitancy to write a review about a psychologist, I feel confident giving her a review. This is a very personal and honest review, and you can take it or leave it...but have an open mind and try to see it through my eyes. Here is my review:
First about me: I have been seeing psychologists for years. Since I was a child I have been seeing specialists specifically for my ADD and eventual ADHD issues. Like many ADD disorders, they expanded further into adulthood in the form of bi-polar disorders as well....Nothing bad, its minimal, but I still need someone to help me. Simply put, I needed someone with more expertise in the field. Now onto Anne...
Areas of Assistance: This in other words, means what mental issues she covers, which by the way is everything. Whether its a severe mental disorder, or simple anxiety/depression issues, she can help. To be honest, I have heard she is exceptional with those with either sexuality issues or those having relationship/interpersonal issues. But once again, she can help in any disorder or issue you might have.
Style: Her style is unlike any psychologist I have seen prior. Anne helped diagnose my issues on the first visit, and her style was very much nurturing, yet to the point. Instead of giving me "psych speak" and beating around the bush, she tells you what you need to know, rather than speaking in generalities. Rather than wasting your money in numerous sessions, she gets into the details and will help you along, regardless of your issues.
Room Environment: Being in so many psych rooms throughout my life, I feel like the room does make an experience better/worse. First off, her office is literally a renovated house, very comforting and quiet. Her room is even more comforting, she has a huge comfy couch you can lounge on as you speak. She also offers you something to drink on as you speak. She likes to keep it quiet and relaxing. She does also have a different twist I have never seen before: she helps rehabilitate rescue dogs and brings them back seemingly from certain doom. I think its noble, and is also very soothing for her patients. None of the dogs she brings in make a distraction, they always sit off to her side and keep away. You have nothing to worry about if you do not like dogs just ask her to put it in the back room to rest while in session.
In Summary: With all this said, she is an expert in her craft. I do want to point out she does not accept any form of insurance, she is fully private and has her own going rate. If you have issues with payment, you can always speak to the front desk or Anne herself to discuss further. She is worth every penny, I can't stress how outstanding she is. She gets 5 stars for her style, ability to diagnose issues quickly, her educational background, the environment of her office, and the level of expertise. If you are viewing this and need the help, I very much hope you find it and can better your life. Good luck! read more
