For me, I felt I was in need of a hard mental reboot and I also really wanted to find someone to talk with regarding my lifelong MTF crossdressing issues. When I happened to choose Dr. Goldberg-Boltz, little did I know at the time, I was hitting the jackpot! I have found her to be very supportive, non-judgmental, caring, compassionate, very very smart and extremely tuned into me and my issues. I have had therapy with others in the past and the treatment I received from them paled in comparison to what I get from Dr. GB. If you are wresting with any issues, especially cross dressing or gender issues, I cannot recommend Dr. Goldberg-Boltz enough.

I have never once felt uncomfortable or unsafe while seeing her.If you want somebody who truly cares about and wants nothing but the best for their clients as well adapts their therapy style to each individual client then this is who you need. They have all their credentials hanging on the walls in both of their offices. She has gone to very prestigious colleges has her own private practice as well as working in multiple very well known hospitals. They truly care about the people that they work with. They're always punctual and never have canceled an appointment on me. They have helped me improve my life beyond words, I am forever grateful for the help that they have given me.

It is hard to explain what a difficult experience I had dealing with Ionascu. Her manner was curt,…read moreunreceptive/unsympathetic and not helpful in the performance of neuro-psychological testing. (I am loath to use the term "Doctor" as she got a PsyD from a second-rate institution, "The Wright Institute", that will give anyone with enough time and money a degree that allows them to use that coveted term. I heard a psychologist with a PhD from the University of California, San Francisco called it the "Wrong Institute" because she said the students were practically innumerate, i.e., they could barely do math she taught in psych classes. A PsyD is nothing more than a high-sounding professional technician's degree with limited insight into the theoretical foundations of the psychology and physiology of neuropsychology. One of her websites claim she got her training at UCSF. One class, 2 days, maybe.) Briefly, her office setup for neuro-psychological evaluation is ergonomically poor with problematic equipment layout and rickety equipment and nothing to accommodate different body types. Some of the equipment is improperly positioned for the requirements of the evaluative instrument/test being administered. Some of the testing conditions lacked privacy and, potentially, in violation of health privacy laws. I could go on but suffice it to say that considering how much she charges for her services it ought to be better. I went to her because the only other people in the area approved to do the testing were booked far into the future and Ionascu could accommodate the timeline I was forced into by the FAA. Now I understand why. She is second-rate and if I had to do this again I would choose any other neuro-psych evaluator in the Bay Area (or travel long distances) instead of her even with the long wait the others might have. She may be good for some people but beware of her limited capabilities and unprofessional approach.

She helps one shine while working with their own personal abilities, knowing where to focus most where one needs help. Her many years working in schools as well as counseling as a therapist come through as she puts even young clients at ease, making an assessment feel like a source of support rather than simply testing. From there she will help form a path to success and continued support. I would give 10 stars if I could.
