After we personally interviewed 5+ of the counselors from the list we chose her and haven't looked back since. It took a handful of meetings to get to know each other (her us and we her) deeper, and now my husband and I feel like Susan really understands each of our perspectives-she is a fantastic listener, lets each of us feel heard. She finds the root of issues-takes comments and concerns shared to deeper levels. Susan has found such insightful ways to help my husband and I connect with one another-they are small steps, but each time we leave an appointment, no matter how intense the appointment was, we always leave feeling even closer than before. I am so impressed. I think Susan saved our marriage.

I have tried many types of services in the dating genre. Some were matchmakers, some were "coaches"…read moregoing to give me confidence, some were going to teach me how to date....nothing worked. Then I saw Dr. Diane on a panel of "The Great Love Debate" and she just made sense. I set up an initial session with her and rolled right into her program. We worked on fixing many of my issues that I didn't realize i had and that were keeping me from a happy, healthy relationship, including my history. We started with changing some of my actions and perceptions and then worked on dating skills and set realistic goals that were tailored to me. I am a successful business woman and we think we know it all. Dr. Diane is an extremely intelligent woman, she knows what she's talking about and has a very direct, yet gentle way about her. She's truthful, which sometimes I didn't want to hear, but need to....and she was right on. I am now in a long term amazing relationship and recently engaged, all because of Dr. Diane. Mr. Right did not just appear, nor was it luck....it was listening to Dr. Diane, changing myself and changing the way I went about dating. I would suggest that any single woman go see her......she is the best.

Katie Luce is a trusted and versed therapist, consultant, and clinical supervisor. I have know…read moreKatie from our work together at a local middle school where she oversaw the entire Adolescent Counseling Services (ACS) department. I worked closely with Katie, referring her student-clients who needed extra supports in such areas as: stress management, social skills, coping through parental divorce, and building resiliency in the tough world our teens now inhabit. Katie showed great care in assisting these students reach a better quality of life through her thorough knowledge of teen issues, and the best ways to help them address life through empowerment and acceptance. Through the ever-present supervision of her interns, and consultation with school staff, Katie was able to oversee multiple cases and treated each one with the dedication every parent would desire. Katie is able to connect with teens and adults alike, and was a definitely positive influence on many individually, as well as continually promoting the supportive culture of the school - always with resolve and a smile on her face. Katie is warm and accepting, and really provides a space for others to feel comfortable talking about their difficulties. She also works from a belief that people are inherently good (not broken) and that they have the capacity to solve their problems with some assistance through counseling. Katie works with teens (and parents) where they're at psychologically, encouraging growth at a pace that is tailored to their individual needs. I fully support Katie as a therapist, and advocate of the families she works with, who really understands the common struggles as well as knows how to help those through the tough times. Jeff

Dr. Richmond is the best psychiatrist I have ever worked with. I find him compassionate and…read moreknowledgeable--a true professional. His interventions are delivered at the right time and in a manner that I'm able to take them in. I feel respected as a human being. I've worked with him for the past three years and feel that I have progressed. He's been consistent, steady, and reliable. I find his training in psychoanalysis increases the resources he has available in order to help me clearly see my weaknesses. His billing rate is very fair. He's thoughtful with my medications and takes care of my refills quickly. He always returns my calls in a timely manner. I recommend him highly. I feel fortunate that a professor of psychiatry at Stanford School of Medicine referred me to Dr. Richmond. I certainly plan to continue having him as my psychiatrist.

I was a client of Julie's for several years. Having experienced a lot of trauma from a hellacious…read morechildhood and a family history of mental illness, I had long tried to go it alone for most of my life; believing that if I survived my childhood, I could handle almost anything. However, a high pressure career and my approaching mid-life had taken a toll and by my mid 40's I was seriously at the end of my rope. I thought therapy was a little like taking my car to the garage. A few tweaks here and there and I'd be on my way. If only it was that simple. Julie worked with me through a very challenging road to wellness. If I lost my way, she was tuned in and fully engaged to help me find my way back. So impactful was our work together, I changed careers and am now serving others who struggle with mental health challenges. I can't find words strong enough to explain how much I value the work we did together.

I told the police after I quit working with him that my brother molested me and they were astonished that it was never reported by him. Working with him was horrible for my mental health and he barely cared about the issues. He's a reminder that there are some people in this world who can never be understood for the things they have done. And he does not deserve to make a living off being a therapist. Do not go to him.

Dr. Hilberg was our family's first exposure to therapy and it was not a pleasant experience at all…read more We have only seen him 4 times but we can deduct that this doctor is in it ONLY for the money. Since I was new to the therapy process, I did not know is was on a cash basis, meaning I wrote a check after each session. At our first session, I did not bring my checkbook but at the very next weekly session, I promptly paid him for 2 sessions to included what I missed the first time. On our 3rd visit, he was rather aggressive in telling me as I am writing him a check, that I owed him now for 2 sessions again. We went back and forth and I told him I would pay for today's session only and would email him a copy of the cleared check where I paid him for the first unpaid session. Only then would he back off and barely apologized for coming at my so aggressively. I've called him frantically to seek advice, as I can only assume people seeking mental help do not have problems that can be confined to normal business hours and within a paid session, all he offered me was to make another appointment to go over strategies and some online resources. I was FRANTIC on the phone and his response did not make me feel any better. In fact, I felt even more isolated. The next session, he proposed a diagnosis without any strategies and continued with his line of lets make another appointment to go over strategies and possible treatment. We had to cancel an appointment due to the holidays and he said he never got our message so he charged us for that appointment. We went back and forth playing phone tag and he finally offered to split his fee with me, even though we eft the message within his 48 hour courtesy request. He just wants to set up more appointments so that he has someone paying his car payments. I don't know for a fact if he has our son's best interest at heart but I seriously distrust him at this point. He reminds of the 976 physic hotlines that would charge you to hear more and all you were left with was a big phone bill and no insight into your life or problems.

I was interested in sort of laying out the internals of our relationship to therapist/counselor to see if there were any red flags we should be aware of, and talk through anything that could potentially be problematic for a long term relationship. Most importantly, Dr. Lillie is incredibly competent in her line of work, and can remarkably quickly ask the important questions to guide couples to new perspectives on their relationship. The way that Dr. Lillie interacted with my partner and I was not only transformative in the way we think, but carried care, empathy, and psychological safety. I never felt judged, only heard, but still was compelled to change my thinking about some foundational pillars of being in a relationship. Needless to say, my partner and I are happier than we ever thought possible, and indeed got married :) I owe a lot of this to only a few conversations I had with Dr. Lillie, and to that end, I'm very grateful for the time I've shared with her.
