I sought psychotherapy services from Dr. Brown for nearly six months after a severely debilitating…read moreand traumatic health issue. I had been to therapy before, but not for such a prolonged amount of time. Dr. Brown has been an integral part of my emotional and spiritual recovery. She is warm, focused, and invested in her patients' healing. She uses EMDR which is necessary/helpful when dealing with trauma. It can be a frightening process, but helps get to the heart of what's causing the trauma. I always felt safe in her care, and would recommend her to anyone looking for some really deep therapy. A couple things to note: be sure to review her cancellation policy. And she did not accept my insurance, so treatment can hit your wallet pretty hard. But it's worth it.

I found Diane and it was an immediate blessing. She had me start EMDR to help with the PTSD from the trauma of the events and I was amazed at how quickly and thoroughly this process helped. I have continued working with her for the past two years as her expertise, compassion, and intuitiveness have helped me with so many other issues as well...issues that we have a tendency to suppress until events trigger them wide open. Oh and yes folks. she has a great sense of humor!!! Would I recommend her? Oh Yes!!! Marie M.

She provides a lot of insight as she shares personal stories to prove to me that she relates and that I am not alone in this or any kind of situation. She has a lot of experience in working with anxiety and life transitions. She is available via telehealth, online, and that helps a tremendous amount. I have a really difficult schedule in terms of working 4 days a week 10 hours a day and she is able to be flexible and work with it. She is quick to respond and has great boundaries. If you're able to get on her caseload, you've hit the jackpot.

Her tips on interpersonal relationship has been such a great help to my life, and I find my relationships getting much better as a result of her help. She is also very compassionate when listening to my side of the story, and offers great tips without judgment. She even takes time outside of our sessions to check in on me and provide guidance. I could not have asked for a better therapist! Thanks Karina!

Then I was referred to sasha levine and for the first time in years I had hope. She turned my life around. She is excellent at what she does and I am so blessed to have her in my life. She listens to everything you have to say. She knew exactly what questions to ask me, questions I would have never thought to ask. I was able to better communicate my feelings so she could better help me. Levine is so patient and so kind. Because of her kind words and encouragement after losing only 3 pounds I was able to go on to lose 30 more pounds. I would recommend her 100%.

I recommend Michele Waldman totally.

Michele is patient and deeply intelligent, and brings a warmth that is unusual and welcomed in this profession. I went to her for individual therapy, but I know several people who have gone to her for marriage counselling and been profoundly happy with her. Couples who are not married are equally as thrilled with Michele. Easy to talk to, completely tuned-in; she cares, she brings relief. You can count on her to transform pain to tranquility.

She tells you what you need to hear in a way that actually makes sense. She is also really funny, which makes talking about hard stuff so much easier. She's really professional as well, so I always feel comfortable and safe, but she still keeps things real and relatable. I never feel judged, just understood. I always leave our sessions feeling lighter and like I actually learned something about myself. I could be in the worst state headed to therapy, but when I get out, I feel like a brand new person. If you want someone who's honest, supportive, and will actually help you figure things out instead of just nodding and taking notes, she's the one. 10/10 recommend.

I am so very thankful to work with Clare because I know I can "go there" with Clare…read more "There" is exploring all of the parts that comprise who I am. "There" is bringing her the stories and thoughts that I don't share with my friends or family. "There" is living out an on-going grieving process for my father, ambitions for my life, disappointment in relationships, stresses in career, existential angst about death, etc. And when I'm "there", Clare is walking me through it all with no judgment, and riding my emotions alongside me. Once I'm done getting it all out, she'll help me unpack the message and we'll come back from "there" to "here", together. "Here" is where Clare encourages me to be, even when I don't want to believe it. "Here" is where I'm compassionate to myself, others and living in flow. I'm sure Clare will help bring you back to "here" as well. I, like you, was once looking for a therapist on Yelp. I found Clare and didn't need to look again.

She has a rare ability to listen while actually being able to respond and provide good insights from her experience to help you grow through what you're going through so to speak.

I believe in her cause for anyone trying to improve themselves or speak about things in a private setting.

Honestly, I most likely wouldn't be here writing this review if it wasn't for Susan…read more.. Susan has an incredible grasp of childhood trauma, CPTSD, ADHD, and everything that comes along with those conditions and has been instrumental in helping me through not just multiple traumatic life events since I've been seeing her but just life in general. She is a rock star at Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and helping you realize the changes you need to make without any judgement or shame. And she's an incredible human being... I've gone through a lot of therapists and she blows all of the previous ones out of the water. She's kind, compassionate, beyond empathetic, understanding, an incredible listener, down to earth, honestly funny - it's rare that a therapist can make me laugh (or will laugh along with my bad/dark jokes because she understands where it's coming from), flexible from a scheduling standpoint, and actually truly cares about me and my mental health. I honestly can't recommend her highly enough, I've sent multiple friends to her and will continue to recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing therapist.

Susan is incredible. I saw her for about two years and can't recommend her enough. As an adult…read morechild of an alcoholic who also happens to have ADHD, I had a lot of family of origin issues to work through. Susan helped me set boundaries with my family (which resulted in many mended, happy, and healthy relationships) as well as strengthen my professional relationships. I really looked forward to our sessions, and can honestly say that they're one of the things I miss most about San Francisco. Something I loved about seeing Susan was that she always gave me homework of things to work on, things to pay attention to, and articles or books to read. I always felt like our sessions were very proactive instead of retroactive which I appreciated. As a therapist, Susan is one of the best. Her office is beautiful, she always has tea and tissues, and is an active participant in our conversations. She is funny, warm, and so so welcoming. I cannot recommend her enough.
