I worked with Sophie weekly for eight years. I will miss her as she leaves San Francisco for the…read morenext chapter in her life. My life has been enriched as the result of working with her in ways I could never satisfactorily describe. Sophie is a special human being. She is a gifted listener who holds a compassionate, non-judgmental space. She is an articulate teacher full of profound wisdom. She welcomed and accepted all parts of me. She has been perhaps the most influential person in my life to date, and I am the man and the partner I am today because of her guidance. Choosing a therapist is a personal decision, and like any intimate relationship, it must be the right fit. But my message to those who will begin their work with Sophie as she arrives in her new city: you are inheriting a blessing. Thank you, Sophie, for more than I could ever repay.

Unfortunately we did not expect this therapist to be insensitive. He was suppose to see my spouse…read morewho suffers from several health issues. We are having a hard time. When I wrote in to him, I clearly explained that we wanted to see him in person, instead he booked us for zoom consultation. Seems he doesn't care about privacy issue or not a care about talking about a persons intimate issues over zoom. It took me more than a year to convince him to see someone for help, just when he agreed, this therapist had to screw it up. I have to start all over again. Perhaps it is a sign that he's not a peoples person. One star for ruining all my effort.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. After an initial call with the secretary they placed me…read morewith a doctor for a session. The doctor was qualified but I had a number of issues: 1.) No Rapport 2.) Accent made it tough to understand everything 3.) After being told (before my first session) that the doctor was available at 7pm on weekdays. He said its "summer" and he'd rather work earlier in the day. I work Monday to Friday and cannot make an earlier time work. Further I don't want to spend nearly $200/hr on someone who would rather work a different time. After calling with my frustration and requesting to see another doctor or be refunded they refused. Don't pay $200 an hour for something or someone you are not totally sure about because there is no chance that is coming back. Spoke with the managing director she was't helpful in any way.

First 10-15 minutes of our paid time he made us fill-in forms for him. He gave me a bad look when, at the end of the hour, I asked him why we didn't do this in the 10-15 minutes we spent waiting in the lobby anyway. This guy was not able to say one word on what kind of progress/feedback/whatever we may expect after three paid sessions. Hi seemed surprised I DARED to ask such a question. ...I could go on and on, but I don't want to annoy anyone. AVOID THEM. They are just money suckers, it's all they care about.

Kevin was…read more instrumental in not only helping me through a difficult time in my life, but also helping me work through challenges I have struggled with for years. Counselling can be challenging and it is important to find the right fit. I had tried once or twice in the past, but I clicked with Kevin in my first session. He was not afraid to ask the tough questions and made sure I did the hard work necessary for true progress. It took time but Kevin was there as a patient and kind guide. I've been so appreciative that I've had the opportunity to work with him and I can honestly say I've experienced absolutely stunning personal growth. I also appreciate how open, flexible and compassionate all of the counsellors in the group have been. I'd reached out with a couple of questions and they were so welcoming, offering solutions and going above and beyond. The ethos of the group are people who truly care about your well-being. Thank you!

My sister recommended I see Val. I reluctantly did so and I'm super glad that I did. Right off the bat, I was impressed at how she didn't make me feel like I needed psycho analysis, I didn't need the Pollyanna treatment. I was greeted with empathy, intelligence and a person that was able to start helping me on my first visit. If you are intelligent and you see through a lot of crap, go see Val. She doesn't play games.

What you can see only after you take a cold shower from this extremely rude, condescending and judgmental individual on the phone is none is older than one month ago! At his request, I tried to feed him as much info on my complex situation, in the space of the max 30 minutes we had. I asked him to interrupt me whenever he wants and ask me more focused questions, which he did. Sometimes it was hard to hear him (he put me on speaker on his end), and I frequently had to ask him twice what he was mumbling about. He wanted any answer in either black or white, without saying so. When, at some question, I tried to say why in my mind it wasn't either yes or no, he became extremely rude, he practically verbally attacked me and he hung up. And no, I've been always extremely polite, listening, doing my best to pass the info I knew about. I truly regret I did not record our phone conversation, because I would have addressed a complain as well to his professional ethical committee. AVOID AT ANY PRICE!
