I have been seeing Allison for over four years, when I first started I was seeing her weekly and have now moved to every two weeks. She likes to use modern technology which is great for us busy people. She uses psychselect.com services which is HIPAA compliant; so I can send her electronic messages as well as schedule/cancel appointments without having to play phone tag. So nice! Also, she uses an electronic debit service so that I can process my co-pays in those cases where I don't have cash and on the flip side she doesn't have to deposit checks. As a therapist, she is extremely effective and provides constructive feedback pushing me to think through my emotional/psychological barriers. Also, Allison has a unique counseling philosophy where she blends cognitive, behavioral and spiritual. It continues to be the best fit for me and my strong spiritual beliefs. I also love how she maintains her space. She makes it very cozy, warm and inviting. She many times likes to burn aromatherapy oils which calms my mind down and actually helps for me to be more open.

My very first session with Dr. Grant was over the phone and I was taken aback by her level of knowledge and intuition. She was the first truly spiritually intellectual conversation that I have had in years and that phone conversation was what made me realize this. I take away something special from every session I have with Dr. Grant and always receive clarity and direction. I refer to her as my spiritual adviser to my friends and I consider her and amazing gift in my life. I had my first session with her in person this last week and found her energy just as warm, kind, true, and healing as I had felt her to be. When I have a session with her, depending on my needs, she will listen; understand; explore, explain and advise; read my chart with great thoroughness; and even do chakra and healing work if it is needed. Oh! I also bought a session from her for my father as a birthday gift one year and he was thoroughly impressed and happy with it. THANK YOU Dr. Grant!!

Dr. Dufford has helped me make more progress in one month more than I made those ten years in talk therapy. When I started seeing him, I had been through so many failed therapists-- I didn't think this would work either. He proved me very wrong. He helped me get "unstuck." Now I am more in control of my emotions. They no longer control me. I don't write a lot of reviews, but I felt compelled to write this one because I've seen how much he has to offer. He has literally changed my life. This may sound strange, but I feel like I'm a different (and better) version of myself. I can't recommend Dr Dufford enough.

I'm very happy to say that as of today, I have taken 4 flights with no end in sight! I hadn't flown in my entire life before I started with Dr. Dufford! He helped make the impossible possible. Thank you, Dr. Dufford.

(and he makes you pay before it starts because I'm sure others have wanted to leave) he states that not only does he NOT render any decisions, he doesn't even offer opinions. Um, isn't a mediator suppose to MEDIATE?? Once appt. began he was completely useless. He spoke of "ground rules" and then completely ignored actions that clearly broke his own ground rules. Donald preaches how educated he is as a child psychologist. ha! Anytime a question was asked about implications for my son, his response was standard "Well. sometimes a child reacts like this extreme and sometimes like this other extreme" hello? that's an educated opinion? It was less revealing than if I pretended to be child psychologist. Anyhow, I already wasted my money on total joke "mediator and child psychologist" but am hoping to spare other people doing the same

Laura spent quite a bit of time learning what the issues were. She looked into my insurance coverage and promptly returned a phone call to me. My insurance did not cover her so we never scheduled an appointment. But, in this limited interaction Laura was kind, compassionate, and extremely professional. She was willing to invest time, over the phone, and seemed genuinely concerned and interested in getting me connected with a therapist.

Nicola's supportive presence created a safe space to explore the root of my unhealthy relationship with money. With her caring nature and authentic reflection she assisted me in dropping the barrior that was blocking the natural flow of allowing myself to receive. Before my session with Nicola I was unaware of how much energy I was using to push money away from me. During our session I instantaneously experienced a level of relaxation and appreciation for money I had never felt before. And the next day I even experienced finding money I had "forgotten" about in random places around my home. I know that it was because the barrior I previously had towards money had been dismantled and I was finally able to receive.
