They're not the worst... but FAR from adequately trained enough to understand PTSD or provide you with the tools and skills to manage symptoms. I specifically requested a seasoned therapist trained in PTSD. I was assigned a middle aged woman (Alex) that didn't inform me until MANY sessions later that A) being a therapist was her 2nd career B) she JUST graduated from school. The latter didn't come as a surprise to me. I suspected she was in over her head by her lack of confidence and inability to elaborate on therapeutic concepts and their benefits. When I spoke to the supervisor/director (Stephanie ?) and asked why I was paired with a novice when I specifically requested a senior level therapist, she was evasive, indifferent, communicating in a childish voice and unprofessional tone - merely saying that Alex was the only therapist available and I would have to wait several weeks or months for reassignment. While Alex was a kind and professional therapist, I'm not new to the therapeutic process and I wouldn't recommend this center if you're grappling with severe and debilitating emotional trauma. Additionally, when I requested my therapy notes, I was given gibberish with no specifics, interpretations or meaningful observations about topics discussed in sessions. Their intake process is thorough but also repetitive and redundant - be prepared to received multiple emails and calls and being asked the same questions as the last time.

In the year I spent working with him, I matured more than I ever have in my adult life. What truly sets Rafael apart is his approach. Instead of getting lost in the "why" of things, he focused on the "how"--how to manage my emotions, how to handle difficult situations, and how to become the best version of myself. Even now, 8 months after my last session, I find myself using his advice daily. He was always attentive, understanding, and genuinely concerned about my well-being. I came to consider him not just as a therapist, but as a trusted friend. He was firm in his advice, guiding me with a clear sense of direction, but never condescending. He led with love, offering support without coddling me. Thanks to Rafael, I am now a better person, a better leader, a better wife, and a better daughter and sister. If you're looking for a therapist who will help you grow and become your best self, look no further than Dr. Rafael Mendez. 10/10!

As a queer woman, I feel safe, listened to, and not judged by Dr. Rischa, which is not always a given for me when receiving care. The office is new and super welcoming. Dr. Rischa's personality seems to come through in her room, as well as in the whole space, which has a kind of feminist art thing going on that I'm into. From my more limited interactions with Dr. Adams, she seems lovely too! All in all, I highly recommend this practice and hope it stays in the neighborhood for a long time!
