    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.

    My husband and I were hoping to take advantage of our insurance covered therapy sessions before the…read moreend of the year to have a relationship tune up. I reached out to Coastal Counseling after reading the great reviews. It took days before hearing back from anyone and then after giving my information to the receptionist (?) they said they would reach out to the therapists to see who would want to take us on. Weeks go by and so I follow up and then the person asks me all the same questions again and then says the same exact thing...they'll reach out to the therapists. Another week goes by and then I get a text message asking if we could do an apt 2 hours before I told them my husband gets home from work. Which is not doable for us. Still waiting to hear back....guess I should look elsewhere. There services are probably great, if you can wait around long enough to actually get an appointment with someone.

    I completed Dr. Wendy's Renaissance course and it was definitely a life changing experience for me…read more I had been working with her for 3 months individually and decided to attend her 5 day intensive course. I was at a crossroads in my life so to speak and Dr. Wendy, along with my fellow Renny's, helped me through it and along the way helped me realize that I was enough and deserved more and better. I highly recommend working with Dr. Wendy and if you are lucky enough to attend her Renaissance work shop I highly recommend it as well.

    UNBELIEVABLY off-base. First time I met with her was with…read moremy sister, via web conference. Reason we were meeting was to resolve long-standing family issues. I'm the family scapegoat, purpose of family therapy - address elephant in the room. Why rules which applied to everyone else, did not apply to me. My (narcissist/golden child) sister insisted on meeting with her first, before we met together, the 3 of us. Unaware of what was said in that first meeting, was still hopeful Dr. Hill could help to bring awareness to my family about this toxic family dynamic, so that we could move on harmoniously, as a family. While family scapegoating abuse (FSA) is increasingly more common & gaining awareness, it's not fully understood by mainstream therapists. In this situation, counseling can do more harm than good. Especially for the person who's been systemically abused since childhood, not only by the mentally ill/narcissist parent who targeted her, but rest of the family who learned (consciously/subsconsciously) to treat her as the family trash can. That said, during our FIRST session, Dr. Hill said to me, "you DO know you are an alcoholic, right?" I was shocked. I am NOT an alcoholic. Not even CLOSE! And who the hell is SHE to tell ME I am an alcoholic? She didn't even KNOW me. I LITERALLY just met her. No words to describe how offensive this was. Even my sister agreed how bizarre and completely inappropriate this "diagnosis" was. It was just WRONG. I'll be filing a complaint with CA Board of Psychology. This person should NOT have a license. Talk about "doing more harm than good." FYI - not a wonder her therapist license was revoked (aka "voluntarily surrendered") for "unprofessional conduct" in 2007. So how is she still practicing? A loophole law, aka starting a "non-profit" as "ordained minister" several years later. Just exposing the obvious, so that others can make an informed decision. Proceed with caution. *IMPORTANT & RELEVANT- Maria M.'s review - posted only MINUTES after mine? Previously only 33 reviews. Ever posted. IMMEDIATELY after I post mine, Maria M. decides to post her review? What a strange "coincidence?" Again, encouraging everyone to decide for themselves what's going on here. But ... what are the odds?

He took to Jennifer immediately- she has very kind grounded energy and she also takes insurance. The office is peaceful and a well decorated space. Nolan wanted to see someone in person and needed a skilled practitioner so we have been very happy with her and Nolan likes to take his dog with him...she is also feeling better lol. We highly recommend this practice and Jennifer!

I called my number on my card and this amazing guy told me about a website and I went there and found Healing Hearts under my insurance. I called and was able to text/email easily and make an appointment that same week! I was like what!? With medi cal an actual therapist you can speak to and so quickly and easily? It's amazing. Pretty soon they will be swarmed with medi cal patients however we need help to and Jazlynn has been so amazing! I began with Megan but not all of them are fully licensed so it depends what type of therapy you need. I needed someone with more trauma experience. And Jazlynn already gives me great ideas. I also have my son seeing Christina and she is amazing he actually goes in with her by himself after 4 sessions. I am proud of him I'm not really sure all the work they are doing with him as she doesn't explain a lot to me however when I ask specifically she will reply

    I've been seeing Davida Shreiber for well over a year-and-a-half now and she has helped me…read moretremendously in dealing with many of life's challenges. She is a GREAT listener and incredibly insightful! Davida is smart, genuine, and so easy to talk to. She immediately puts you at ease - like you've known her for years! Davida exudes the purest form of nonjudgemental guidance in her approach to psychotherapy. She doesn't just dwell on her client's past wounds, but helps them address present day situation(s) which are causing pain/discomfort via goal-oriented and compassionate therapy techniques. It is also noteworthy that during the Covid pandemic, Davida has made it incredibly easy to continue seeing her safely by offering tele-therapy sessions. Davida is a wonderful therapist (one of the BEST) and I highly recommend her!!!

    Excellent therapist!! Davida is smart, caring, and genuine. Within the first meeting, I felt…read morecomfortable and in good, capable hands. She is authentic in her approach, very down to earth and a real person. She helped me with issues of anxiety, family relationships and work related stress. Davida taught me techniques and strategies I could use so that my thinking was more balanced which really helped improved my mood and reduced anxiety.   Another plus to meeting with Davida is that she offers a ton of community resource information. She referred me to a couple of other professionals who were great. Also, she is super well read and suggested multiple books that were informative and helpful.   I have referred Davida to several other people who have had equally positive experiences! Thank you Davida for guiding me toward greater happiness.

I recently had my first reading, and was so blown away by the experience, which felt like a cross between a therapy session and a meeting with a medium. The guidance that my guides/teachers/family members gave me through Brea felt like long elusive puzzle pieces that had dropped into my lap. I've never before tapped into this dimension that surrounds us, and had no idea what to expect. Because of this experience, I've made some fundamental shifts in how I am managing my life journey. It was a powerful supplement to my years of therapy, bringing me a deeper level clarity. The best part is that she recorded the entire session, and I have listened to it several times, peeling back more layers of understanding. I look forward to delving deeper into my Akashic Records with Brea, and highly recommend Brea for anyone who is looking to gain a better understanding to their life journey.
