Evolve did wonders for our teen. I'm sure it's hard for them to get reviews as this is such a…read moreprivate matter. The whole process is utterly heartbreaking. You don't end up here because you wanna be here. That being said they worked with us as a family so well. I really liked that. They involve you in the treatment and try to ensure that you will have the tools necessary to help your child continue on their path of healing. The path is BUMPY, and it heartbreaking. I remember graduating out of program thinking I don't know if I am ready to do it without them. They helped us navigate tough topics and issues our teen would shut down on us with. Helped us see each other's sides. Helped our teen see themeself. When we graduated out were ok and we did move forward on our own. As a family we are so thankful for the staff at Evolve and the forever impact they have made on our child's life. The skills they shared, our kiddo still uses. Our kiddo really had a connection to the staff. There was also a pet lizard that meant a lot to our kiddo. There's so much I could say about this place. But the biggest is just two words FOREVER THANKFUL.

I went to Evolve last year for a number of things, and I can safely say that it was a very strange,…read morelife-changing event. The location I had attended was brand-new and I was one of the first people to enter, which may account for many of the bad things about Evolve. It was a traumatic experience. Most of the staff were just several years older than me, no experience clearly, couldn't handle stress well at all and were about as empathetic as robots. When I complained of some minor headache, they forced me to have four Benadryls at once and didn't let me sleep despite my drowsiness the rest of the day. The group of others who attended the residential at the same time as me were very chaotic and triggering to each other, which was hard to endure and didn't help my journey progress. Evolve's "reward" system was messed up and were practically punishments. We typically were only allowed to phone our parents for 3-5 minutes per day. The facility was also not very well-taken care of despite it being new, and a few weeks in, I'd found a dead lizard rotting under my bed. The few perks of the treatment: the therapist I had, the weekend outings, narcotic anonymous meetings, and being able to listen to music. I'd love to continue rambling more about my experience here, but there's too much to tell, and I would like to show some respect to Evolve for at least trying. Overall, I gave Evolve an extra star because I did come out of the program better than when I had come in; however, the actual treatment I had received at this facility was not what helped me. It was the traumatic experiences I've had there that made me want to leave sooo very bad that I ended up healing myself.

I can confidently say that choosing to begin therapy with Heather was the best decision I have made…read morein my life. I have struggled with depression, anxiety, and heavy trauma for years. In the 8 months that I have been working with Heather, I have never seen or felt this kind of growth in my entire life. She has helped me work through past, present, and future stressors, and create healthy communication habits and coping mechanisms. Heather has an easy-going personality, and an incredible way of making you feel comfortable talking about the most difficult things. She allows you to be as vulnerable and open as you'd like to be, and still manages to find ways to gently challenge you to further your expression and growth. She is certified in different types of therapy including couples counseling, talk therapy, and EMDR. (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing -- If she thinks you're a good candidate for it, just do it. Seriously.) If I had known THIS is what therapy could be, I would have started a long time ago. However, I'm so grateful to have started when I did with Heather. I would (and do) refer her to anyone I meet that is interested in therapy, especially those who are on the fence about beginning their healing/therapeutic journey.

I was so delighted to hear that Heather Swisher has opened her own practice. Heather was a…read moretherapist in my school district for students with severe behavioral and emotional issues. I am the school psychologist for the program. She connected well with all of the students with whom she worked. In addition, she was able to work well with the families and the school to guide her treatment goals. I would absolutely recommend her to any individual experiencing a need for therapeutic support. Heather has excellent experience in working with many different issues - and has a special talent for working with children. Heather is a gift to all who have met her!

I was never one to be in tune with my thoughts and feelings. I struggled throughout my teen years…read moreand saw a few therapists who I could not stand with their overly emotional jargon and unrealistic views. I met Dr. Semmes in my early twenties and cannot imagine where my life would be without her. She's not a therapist that just parrots back what you say and validates all your thoughts even if they are irrational. Dr. Semmes has an amazing way of building relationships (even with unruly, bitchy young people like myself) and finding the correct therapy to address your needs. I had major trauma that I couldn't move past. Dr. Semmes recommended EMDR, a specialized therapy for trauma, and I cannot thank her enough! After a few sessions I finally felt relief. Talking with her always helps me overcome whatever obstacle I am facing. Dr. Semmes has been my therapist over the last decade and I can honestly say I will keep her for life. Originally she was covered under my insurance which made billing/funding easier but even though she's not now, she is well worth an out of pocket expense.

After four years of working together, the therapeutic relationship ended during a period of…read moresignificant distress for me. Attempts to address concerns did not lead to repair, and the focus shifted toward protecting the therapist's personal boundaries rather than supporting stabilization or closure. I left feeling blamed for my distress and unsupported at the end of care. This experience was destabilizing and painful, particularly given the length of the relationship. I encourage others with complex mental health needs to discuss in advance how conflict, boundaries, and termination are handled.
