Jessica is an invaluable resource for sleep training and behavioral issues with children…read more I have seen her several times over the last year for struggles with both of my children -- who are now ages 1 and almost-5 years. She is a compassionate and careful listener who provides practical solutions to problems that seem hard to manage and solve on your own. Her action plan always reflects where you are, what type of parent you are and what your needs are -- rather than following a particular method. The plan evolves after your session with her through email contact and continued direction and encouragement. And by "plan" i mean you will get an email outlining what you are going to do (which you, of course, discussed in your session). It eliminates all the self-doubt, questioning and middle-of-the-night-internet-combing! Many of the reviews here are about her help with sleep training -- and she has worked miracles in our house including teaching me to help our son (age 4) to sleep through the night (again) on his own. he stopped after the birth of our daughter... AND training our daughter to sleep through the night -- which included a comprehensive plan related to eating and nap schedules too. But where Jessica has brought me the most peace is with behavior "problems" my son was having at school and at home. I felt so out of control and desperate...and Jessica calmly and entirely without judgment or shame helped us learn how to help him and help ourselves. In one session, she reviewed his school parent/teacher evaluation form with me and provided me with reassurance, encouragement and direction. She provided information about age-appropriate expectations and behaviors. We have learned, with jessica's help, to help our son manage his own emotions -- an invaluable skill -- and have learned how we participate in escalating or, hopefully, deescalating emotional situations. I am so very grateful for Jessica's skill and compassion. She has been an invaluable part of my growth as a mom.

Where to start... :) Well, if you are researching and trying…read moreto find someone you should talk to for whatever reason it may be, I strongly encourage you to stop searching. Seriously, stop and relax a second because you found the guy. Here are a few aspects of James Ochoa that come to mind - 1. James isn't normal - in the best of all ways. It's not only because "he's been there, done that", it's because he will go there with you (wherever that may be). 2. James won't judge you, ever. Many people claim they don't judge but in reality, they are judging machines. Could you even imagine speaking with a person who won't judge you? It's incredible because it means you can be 100% honest. Which is an aspect of life that some people don't ever get to experience in full when interacting with others. 3. James knows more than you think. Even if you think he knows a lot - he knows more than that. Trust me. 4. James has an awesome brain. Picture a brain with scientific knowledge, deeply rooted spirituality, energy feeling, butterfly loving and the constant urge to learn and share - now combine all that with the ability to fully understand human beings in multiple dimensions at both the micro and macro level. Yeah... I know. It's incredible. I've been seeing James consistently for over two years now. Life went from a musky grey overlayed with an unfortunate shade of brown to a bright splatter painting with all the vibrant colors you imagine - not to mention a big smiley face in the middle of it. Thank you, James. Big time. - Shane

After trying to reach this office by phone for several days with no luck, I finally sent an email…read moreon 5/30 to request an appointment and fee schedule. I received a response from the office manager, Frank, on 6/2 requesting personal information regarding my treatment and medication history before providing me with an appointment or fee schedule. I responded in just over an hour and waited five days before following back up. On 6/7, I sent another email to check status of my appointment with Dr. Ochoa. As of today, 6/16, I've received zero response. It's my personal opinion that this is poor customer service, especially given the nature of the business and its focus on mental health. If someone is requesting services, a follow-up is essential. I'm disappointed, will seek service elsewhere, and will ensure this perspective is shared with others.

I came to see her initially because of a specific issue I was trying to work through and have continued to see her because she makes my life so much better. I feel lighter after I see her and more equipped to handle difficult situations. She is never judgmental and we have covered a range of life topics from career to marriage to family planning. She is so attentive and thoughtful with her advice and what I appreciate most is how focussed she is on gradual solutions to achieve your goal. It never feels like she is asking me infinite questions with no direction - it is a genuine conversation with real feedback and applicable advice. She is also available via text - which I appreciate - and can be flexible to get you in for an appointment at a convenient time. There is parking in front of her office and she has never once been even a minute late. Go see her!

Please do yourself, your family, and your loved ones a big favor and avoid this "doctor" at all…read morecosts. Read below for why. Our daughter's appointment today was the first time we had the opportunity for an in-person visit. She had prior sessions remotely but after she was prescribed amphetamines, we wanted to go in as a family to discuss before putting her on the medication. This class of drug can have serious side-effects and a strong proclivity for tolerance and addiction and thought it best to go in as a family to talk over the diagnosis and rationale for the prescription. One would think that would be welcomed considering the name of the practice "FAMILY Mental Health". The visit had started fine as the staff seemed friendly but it didn't take long for the experience to turn into a nightmare. Our daughter was taken back 25 minutes after our scheduled appointment time. The "doctor" requested he talk with her alone before we met as a family. No problem. We waited more and were invited into a disheveled and frankly, filthy room to meet. The unkempt "doctor" asked why we had come in and we replied with our desire for more information and our questions/concerns surrounding amphetamine treatment. They may have been difficult questions for the "doctor" but we were unexpectedly met with extreme adversity. The man claimed that I was the one that needed therapy. In front of our daughter. I raised my eyebrow but tried to shrug it off and continue the conversation as to how he arrived at his diagnosis. He gave us no comprehensible reasons, examples, or answers. After listening, I was understandably even more skeptical on putting our child on this potentially dangerous medication. He then proceeded to get visibly upset with me for questioning him. I did nothing wrong. I was calm, respectful, and never accusatory in the slightest. Here's the kicker, he then proceeded to tell me that he'll be happy to treat my daughter going forward but refuses to speak with me directly EVER again. Absolutely stunned, my wife and I left the dirty room so the "doctor" could wrap the visit up. We all left several minutes later. I asked my daughter if she wanted to tell us what he said in those final minutes alone with him. She did and told us that he had the audacity to tell her that she "needs extreme therapy to deal with your parents" and that "parents are always the problem, that's why I don't deal with them anymore". Mind blowing... If you are looking for a new mental health practitioner, run away. Run far away. And please reconsider if you are a patient or a parent of a patient here. This quack is rude, unprofessional, and downright dangerous.

She's very genuine. I found the work to be deeply revealing about what we can and cannot control as well as bringing a sense of peace through understanding our suffering comes from within.

In my opinion she teaches the tools that you can use at home, which means you don't have to go to therapy for the rest of your life. Out of ten or so therapists I've met through my life she was my favorite. Thanks Margaret

She has fantastic skills with trauma as well as working with couples and I continue to refer to her for both of these issues. You want a therapist who continues to learn and train because the field of psychology is changing fast. You also want a therapist who is interpersonally open and knows how to build trust and make therapy not only effective but comfortable. I feel confident that Margaret can do both and I recommend anyone looking for counseling consider working with her.
