This is my second review. My story maybe a little long- but worth reading here. I'm continuing to…read morebenefit from the information and care that Dr.Toups has provided for me over the years. She uses nutrition, supplementation, medications and her superior diagnostic skills and research skills as a physician to care for her patients. Her care plans and personalized data sheets to get you on track functioning and enjoying life - they are treasures! I am turning 66 in November and recently had to review my notes and information provided by Kat regarding my initial treatments because I had fallen out of the parameters and the functional way of living (supplements when needed, nutrition and exercise) for optimal health and was not functioning.I have adhd, anxiety, depression, arthritis, TMJ, Asthma, adverse medication reactions and metabolic problems (overweight) which is giving me borderline high blood pressure,borderline pressure in my eyes (re:glaucoma), IBS and prediabetes. A recent trip to the ER - made me reevaluate the low standards of self care especially regarding diet. Kat had the good plan and I strayed. In addition, I jumped on the WFPB vegan nutrition but I could never go all in and felt hungry and unable to digest the foods. I could only lose weight eating about 800 calories a day. I believe this way of eating also led me eating more High Carb processed food especially feeding my Sugar addiction. I decided two months ago to get back on track with "High Fat" keto diet prescribed by Kat and gave absolutely no regard for scale numbers. Initially, I gained weight - but now two months in (with very few cheats) it is stabilizing and the numbers are coming down slightly. My sugar cravings are almost gone. Here is what is now happening to me eating very few carbs, HIGH FAT, mostly grass fed beef or pork or eggs, a few what I call neutral veggies (example- green beans), few berries, no seed oils, olive oil, Kerry Gold butter, and a dash of cream for 1/4 cup coffee in morning, staying away from sugar substitutes - I feel "happy" I have "energy" I am exercising - swimming over 1 mile 5 days a week, I walk on my rural property 6K to 10K steps a day,I have no aches and pains, I recover from repetitive swimming easily, my recall for names and where I place items has improved, I have no doom and gloom in the morning, My ADHD symptoms improving (able to clean up messes and organize). My figure is changing, I have definition in my biceps and calves and my waist is smaller. My weight is now concentrated in my hips and thighs and butt. My TMJ has improved. Sleep improved- not perfect yet (supplementing with Magnesium). I was able to cut my BP med in half - soon hope to eliminate. Able to stop using daily Inhaler for Asthma and haven't used my rescue inhaler in 1 month. What arthritis? Gone! My skin looks vibrant. For sugar cravings I drink bone broth. I stay full as not to stray from this way of eating and I only counted calories a few times to see how much I am really eating - it turns out to be 1500 to 2000 calories a day - that is what I feel I need. I only eat when I am hungry except if I think I might get tempted on an outing or something - I will eat before I go. Thank you Kat for helping me. I pray I will not be tempted back into the wrong diet - this way of eating and exercising is too important. I have big plans for my future and look forward to everyday.

In my desperate search for a practitioner who could help my son with his MTHFR diagnosis, I…read moreresearched & contacted many. Dr. Toups replied on a Saturday with feedback, referrals and resource links. She was not only professional, but k-i-n-d and encouraging. It made me cry. When your child is not well, it can feel like shouldering the weight of the world. It was beautiful that someone I never even met cared enough to take the time to give a generous response. I'm grateful for the list of practitioners and I'll certainly utilize it. I appreciate you Dr. Toups!

I believe her expertise coupled with the technology she uses can treat anxiety, depression, traumatic brain injury, as well as most of the mental suffering that ails people. I repeat that if people knew what she was offering, her office would be packed and many other offices treating mental health would cease to exist. She obviously spends most of her time and money on continuing education and new technology. This may not make sense from a business perspective, but for people who want to heal they should take advantage of what she offers ASAP. I hope someday soon this technology becomes more main stream so that more people can lead happier lives. Lord knows the world presently could use more happiness, health, and sanity.

I can't thank Dr. Z enough for what she has done. She was recommended to me by a best in the world…read moreprofessional and she has surpassed expectations. She is absolutely brilliant and caring. Her professionalism is inspirational. She is up to date on her field and it's obvious that she is highly respected in the mental health community. She gets results like no other therapist I've ever heard of and while handling some very difficult cases. You can sense her commitment to excellence. I have never spoken with anyone who had such a consistently high level of insight and the ability to deliver those insights directly and tactfully. I have even been somewhat hesitant to leave a review because her schedule is already very full although that never seemed to get in the way of her ability to give personalized attention. I'm not sure how she does so much. No therapist is smarter, no therapist communicates better, and no therapist works harder. I'm so happy I found her.

And on top of that, I also happen to be a health care practitioner myself. This means, for the purposes of a review, that when I walk into a new Doctor's office, there is an additional dimension of critiquing for me to process. I would never willingly put myself under the guidance and care of a Doctor who did not 1) Impress me as a capable and honest caregiveer and 2) Impress me as a professional colleague. - EMPATHY - KNOWLEDGE - PROFESSIONALISM - RESPECT I think that these are the basic bulletpoints that strike me when I consider why I think so highly of Patricia. Dr. Zurita takes NOTHING more seriously than the pursuit of her profession. Except possibly you, the patient. When under her care, you will be able to sense that to her, learning about human dysfunction and subsequently helping people with this knowledge, are what drives every fiber of her being. Some therapists really care. Other therapists are extremely knowledgeable. Very few therapists are both. Patricia Zurita Ona is one of those very few.

Prior to meeting her, my anxiety and constant doubt crippled me from doing so many things in my life that I wanted to explore. Working with her helped me see that I don't work for anxiety! I'm not held captive by anxiety! Yes, she worked with me to understand my anxiety issues, but... more importantly, she helped me identify my core values and how I want to live my life. I learned that anxiety is just one part of me. Once I accepted that, I knew that I had a choice, be a slave every day to fighting my anxiety or just let it ride along while I focus and experience the things in life that are most valuable to me. With her incredible wisdom and support, I was able to choose the latter. Thank you, Dr. Z!!!!!!

I am very familiar with the incredible work of Melissa MontBlanc, both because I've had the…read moreopportunity to experience her work directly, and because, as a women's health care provider I have been confidently referring my clients to Melissa for years. And each time, my patients return reporting huge, groundbreaking shifts in their orientation to their old patterns and self-limiting beliefs. Melissa has a true gift in her ability to hone in on an individual's underlying belief system and to bring those internal dynamics to light with enormous compassion and care. Many of my clients have had previous lukewarm experiences with therapy because they felt their practitioner was not active and engaged, and they craved someone who would do more than just listen quietly. If you are seeking someone with an active approach to the therapeutic process, Melissa is for you. She is present, dynamic, and thought-provoking, always within a safe container that is filled with respect for the individual's experience. In certain situations she also uses EMDR therapy, which I have witnessed be an incredibly effective tool for individuals who are healing from trauma. If you are dabbling with the idea of embarking on the therapeutic process, you are in very capable hands with this wonderful practitioner. I simply cannot recommend Melissa highly enough!

I had a fall late January stitches in my eyebrow, broke my foot damaged my knees broke my fingers and wrist. It took me until the late part of June to see the doctors here at the Brain Wellness Center, wish I would've reached out sooner. The doctors here were so understanding and explained everything fully. My initial visit was to have them map my brain and give me some test to see how my brain was functioning. After that was done, they looked at the results since my main concern was the headaches that I was having, they thought they could handle it, which they did marvelously. The staff that did the TMS were so kind, funny, and cute they made me feel like I was a special client and after a short time, my headaches finally disappeared completely. The room that they did the TMS had a great view. The office was so clean smelt so good. The music in the waiting room was so nice and soothing. They had water, healthy lollipops, games for kids games for adults books anything you could think of. At the end of my procedure, they retested it to see how my brain was reacting to the procedures and to find out that I did so well it was nice seeing. I can't thank the Brain Wellness Center more for giving me my life back. I'm so happy I'm not depressed. I can figure out things I can do documents./applications, I can set up computers, firestick and other items easily. It is amazing to see how much better I'm doing. I'm sleeping better. My husband and I are enjoying going out and visiting places and doing adventures again. Thank you everyone for giving back my life and making me feel good in myself and how I think. I would definitely recommend this place. If you have any issues with your brain. Meeting their other clients and hearing their problems and how well they're doing makes me feel that more people should know about this place. Thank you!

I could not overstate the impact Caree has had on me and my family.

Listening to excellent advice is great, but actually implementing change is transformative. Caree provides easy to understand tools, that apply to real life and can be used anytime and anywhere. Her approach is underwritten by a sincere desire to listen, and allow the individual to fully express themselves before opining on what is to be done. No psychological-speak, Caree makes you comfortable because she is relatable and kind in her approach. Her office is warm and inviting - a place you're always happy to go back to.
