His depth of knowledge on so many mental health areas is impressive and there is no family challenge, big or small, that he cannot make a positive impact on. I can recommend him for martial support, coping with divorce, coping will illness and youth counseling. The kindness and compassion he showed my children will help to set them on the right course for their adulthood. Gary can handle with ease and grace very complex family dynamics and offer solutions and guidance.

I feel so incredibly comfortable talking with him. His office is surrounded by peaceful trees and birds and it always seems to be sunny there. Inside, the space is comfortable and warm. Garry himself is a great listener and I enjoy seeing him. When I leave his office I feel lighter and happier. I definitely would recommend him to anyone with a traumatic past or present.

I still see him now 12 years later. He is one of the top if not the BEST Psychiatrists in the country, and although his prices are higher than typical psychiatrists the quality of his care and responses to concerns are PHENOMENAL!! I hope Dr. Tabb is recognized in the local News & Observer for his talent and his extraordinary hard work and commitment to his patients. He is one of a kind and there will never be another therapist to replace him.

I would suggest avoiding this practice. I would never meet with a therapist without a brief consult…read morevisit to see if it is a good fit. To have a Psychology Today profile that indicates a psychotherapy practice provides a brief consultation and then to explicitly not offer this is an ethical breach; it is also a sign of bad faith. For potential clients, it is also a big red flag. It benefits both clients and therapy providers when initial consultation appointments are done to see if there is a 'fit' with the therapist and client. ---- The following is a direct quote from Psychology Today's website for the Etheridge Psychology practice (see https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/roy-etheridge-cary-nc/127248). "Call or email [the practice] now for a free 15 minute consultation." I emailed this practice through Psychology Today's website. The administrative assistant called me back to get additional information. She told me there was a therapist in the practice that "might be willing to see me" and would I like her to send the information to the therapist "to see if she was interested". I said sure, and asked how I would hear back about setting up the consultation appointment. The admin told me, "We don't do consultation appointments." ---- If this is how the practice does business, then it is choosing to 'self-select out' as a potential provider. Providers should not indicate an intake practice on their website that they don't offer. This is deceptive and shows an indifference on the part of the practice towards clients; and it wastes the time of potential clients.

Today, I was retelling my Dr. Sara horror story and decided to see if there were any reviews for…read moreher online. I saw the one-star review here and had to do a double-take to make sure I hadn't written it. My ex-husband and I saw Dr. Sara twice a number of years ago. Like the other reviewer, our experience has haunted me and it's important for others to know. She was extremely unprofessional and inappropriate in our second (also our last) session, ultimately yelling loudly at me and yelling an expletive: "you hate his f*cking guts!" We were in the middle of a very painful situation - trying to decide if we were staying together or getting divorced. Needless to say, we were shocked. Dr. Sara was not only unhelpful, her behavior made the situation more hurtful, more confusing, and made it seem truly hopeless. If this was the type of couples/sex therapy that existed, we were screwed. My recommendation: stay away. Find another sex or couples therapist, even if it means meeting with someone virtually in another town or state. I hope this is helpful.

I responded to Ms. Rosenquist's reply as a direct message to her. Giving her a bit more detail on…read moremy former situation with her.

I have been going to Balanced Family Therapy for 10 years. Lesli is the best therapist I have ever…read morehad. She has helped me with abandonment issues, anxiety disorder, self worth issues, anger problems, and relationships. She is not one of those therapists that quietly sits and listens in a corner as I list my problems. Of course I talk, but she talks as well, which makes me feel comfortable. I feel like I can say anything and there is never any judgement. She offers advice, coping strategies, tough love (when I need it), and perspective. I highly recommend Lesli Doares as a therapist. It is the best investment I have made for my life and wellbeing.

Liz's inviting attitude and lovely smile immediately makes me comfortable and ready to speak with her about any issues that I may be facing. She offered advice, but mostly challenged me to think differently about my situation, posing questions that forced me to think on my own. She came prepared with exercises, book recommendations, and anecdotes tailored to my personality and therapeutic needs and goals. Liz is great at remembering the details and creates a personal relationship with clients. I always left the office with a new energy, eager to remain positive and face the day! I highly recommend Liz's therapy and practice. Thank you, Liz, for your great work.

I cannot speak highly enough of Liz as a counselor. My partner and I began seeing her in October…read more2014, when our 13-year marriage was in crisis. She skillfully and patiently helped us work through some of the issues - both immediate and underlying - that had developed in our relationship, and I can honestly say that our relationship is stronger now than it ever has been. We have grown tremendously as individuals and through that growth, as a couple. Liz is extremely easy to talk to, and someone that you warm up to almost immediately. Her strength lies in her ability to listen attentively, and then help you develop the tools you need to resolve conflict and challenges that arise outside the counselling session. She is highly intuitive and does a wonderful job at articulating the importance of perspective, and the control we have over choosing how we want to proceed in life. After having made significant progress on the issues that we were struggling with, my partner and I continue to see Liz once a month. I also have individual sessions with her that always prove extremely helpful. I leave inspired and renewed, much stronger both emotionally and mentally.

There's so much paperwork even compared to other local offices of a similar size, it was difficult to schedule an appointment because I sent an email, got an auto-response saying I had to call, got sent to voicemail after the phone rang for like 5 minutes, which told me I could make an appointment on their website, filled that out, then played phone tag for the rest of the day. Every single one of their systems is complicated and opaque. They told me that they would be in network for my insurance and then they sent me an email *during my initial session* that they weren't, so now I'm out $130 for 50 minutes of talking with somebody about what we would, in theory, talk about in future therapy sessions that I won't be able to pay for. And to top it all off, when I made the appointment I had asked them to make one of the free 15-minute consults, and I'm still not sure how that got lost in translation. Just wait a few months and they'll run off whatever therapist you're hoping to work with, too, and you can see them in a practice with better admin.
