    Dr Mizani is a miracle. When my therapist insisted I change…read morepsychiatrists from my last one to Mizani, I was reluctant because I thought "all psychiatrists kinda suck, I might as well deal with the one I have because it doesn't get much better." I have dealt with quite a few psychiatrists in my time, including at treatment centers; and all but her have supported this idea I had that psychiatrists have no emotional intelligence, but just a purely clinical view of the human brain and don't view patients as people to listen to but subjects to examine and push drugs on, always thinking they know better and saying insensitive things to invalidate my real struggles. But not her. She LISTENS. God, I have never met a psychiatrist who listens and really LISTENS like her. She cares what you have to say and takes everything you say seriously and into account before all of her carefully thought out decisions. She makes me feel seen, respected, taken seriously, cared for, and listened to. That's a rare find. And she really knows what she's talking about; her knowledge of psych and medication is very impressive beyond expectations. As soon as I started seeing her, she was able to immediately help what was wrong with my meds and change things around to the right mix. She always lays out multiple options (some containing adding meds, but always presenting alternatives and respecting any apprehension to meds), and takes the time to listen and weigh things out to whatever you feel is best for yourself. She helped refer me to mental health treatment in August when my depression was at its worst, and though the treatment was incredible, the psychiatrist there just couldn't compare. It reminded me of how lucky I am to have Dr Mizani, the best of the best. I have depression, anxiety, and a past of an eating disorder and she has been nothing but helpful and wise. These problems are big in my life but she has kept them under control like no other, and when they get less manageable, she finds the right solutions (like when she strongly encouraged me to go to treatment and provided those resources). Finding mental health professionals who know how to handle eating disorders and don't say totally triggering and incorrect things about them is surprisingly difficult, but she is one of the few who knows what she's doing and doesn't say triggering things. If you're struggling with your mental health and like me have fear around psychiatrists and their lack of emotional intelligence, please give Dr Mizani a try. She's different. She's gold.

    I was referred Dr. Mizani when I was pregnant, dealing with anxiety and let's face it, I exhausted…read moretalking to my girlfriends about my issues and marriage. I would say I am a type A personality and I like things under my control. Pregnancy, however, turned my emotions on its head. Thanks to a surge of hormones, everything made me highly irritable and aggravated. I knew, or hoped, that it was just the pregnancy. I decided to seek help because I wanted my pregnancy to go smoothly. Dr. Mizani was the perfect person to hear me out. She heard me out and used her expertise to see patterns in my actions and offered me ways to approach concerns I had differently. She got mad with me, when I was mad, and she validated me just enough that it opened the gates to tell her more of what I was dealing with. She was able to discuss sensitive issues about my marriage that didn't make me feel embarrassed. She is highly professional and very experienced with working with personal matters and intimate matters of the heart and soul. I am so glad I was able to have her be my doctor . She is so well read, researched and up to date in her therapeutic approach. I have since referred two other friends to her who are also equally satisfied and comfortable with Dr. Mizani.

As others have said, the admin and customer support is ATROCIOUS. I have been trying to add a new payment method in my account. The card is under my husbands name so we needed to fill out a form approving the card use since it's different prom the patient name. No problem, makes sense. Every form customer service has sent has not been accessible via the Docusign. They have sent 3 different forms and none of them have worked. I have asked if it's possible to just scan and sign a pdf but no response to that. I started this request back the week of Feb 20 and it is still not resolved. I feel it's such a simple request that should not take this long. Literally just trying to sign a form. I followed up multiple times with customer service representative Maegan and she has stopped replying to my emails. I use the online "contact us" platform and nobody responds. Their customer service phone number is just an auto recording saying to contact support via the website and then hangs up. So for 3 weeks now a card I don't want to be charged keeps getting charged. This is causing unnecessary financial distress for me and my husband. I am unfortunately likely going to have to seek care elsewhere which I did not want to do as I LOVE my therapist but the lack of customer support at this point for such a simple request is frankly absurd. EDIT: after 2 yelp reviews, emailing about 15 times myself and asking my therapist to forward my concerns to anyone that will listen, a poor outsourced customer service rep finally called me and was able to help after 45 min despite the language barriers. Crazy a company will charge $500 for a no show but not invest that money in quality customer service reps

I've had feelings of sudden desperation, and Dr. Cotsen ALWAYS responds in a timely manner. There's a huge piece of mind that brings comfort that help is an email away. I suffer from anxiety and his calm demeanor helps slow things down for me. Suddenly that feeling of impending doom and that "I gotta gotta" mentality becomes a faint voice. He provides deep and meaningful thoughts into his feedback and tools (such as his blogpost) to help in your mental wellbeing. He is patient and helped me walk through several exercises. His perspective and knowledge is insightful, practical, and well intended. It helps me change my perspective on how I view life situations. I've had some bad days but have have become more optimistic about the future and reaching my full potential. I feel Dr. Cotsen really respects his profession and his clients. I'm super grateful that people like Dr. Cotsen exist. A good psychiatrist is hard to find, Dr. Cotsen is definitely one of them.

Insight Choices is a very caring and warm mental health facility, and I look forward to continuing to be a patient here!

First, their providers started to lose their ability to prescribe ADHD medication. Then, the insurance dropped them in total, so now I no longer get insurance coverage for my appointments or medication. When I called to inquire about getting an appointment before the changeover date, they ignored me and were rude when I called a second time. Absolutely don't recommend. There are many other virtual appointment options out there.

    You cannot find a better psychiatrist than Dr. Klyman. Decades ago she was known in Michigan as one…read moreof the top psychiatrists and now Los Angeles is lucky that she moved here. When I first met her, she was the President of the American Psychiatric Association in Michigan. I've known her in so many different capacities but the most important one is that she helped one of my favorite relatives through an incredibly traumatic experience, and that person is fully functional and well-adjusted today, largely due to the expertise and care of Dr. Klyman. She's an expert at treating depression and many other conditions. After getting hit and run by a drunk driver, I found myself going to multiple neurologists, eye doctors, and pain management doctors. Traditionally a primary care doctor is a centralized point that does all of the medication management, but I felt that these medications are so complicated and have so many interactions neurochemically that it was very important for the medication to be managed by an experienced psychiatrist who understands neurochemistry better than a good primary care doctor. In the end it took the neurologists 37 failed medications to find the two that worked helping my constant severe migraine and through it all Dr. Klyman help me manage that process in ways that safeguarded my brain health. She was always there and very responsive when I had side effects, she expertly slowly tapered me off of drugs so that I wouldn't have convulsions or seizures. Her level of psycho pharmacology knowledge is absolutely amazing. And she truly cares. It's often said that psych psychiatrist don't make good therapists but I found that Dr. Klyman is excellent at both. She helped make me stronger during very hard times when I was navigating multiple disabilities due to the drunk driver and other issues. I'm so glad that I chose her to help me because she has a steady hand, excellent ethics, extensive experience, and she's incredibly bright. She's very comfortable with LGBT+ clients and other cultures and is very respectful of generational differences. I didn't feel like she was trying to push her viewpoint on me and when we had generational differences in goals or even differences in perspectives, she always took the time to understand what my goals were and helped me attain them. I hope she never retires because the world needs this level of brilliance and compassion in the medical field.
