Dr Mizani is a miracle. When my therapist insisted I change…read morepsychiatrists from my last one to Mizani, I was reluctant because I thought "all psychiatrists kinda suck, I might as well deal with the one I have because it doesn't get much better." I have dealt with quite a few psychiatrists in my time, including at treatment centers; and all but her have supported this idea I had that psychiatrists have no emotional intelligence, but just a purely clinical view of the human brain and don't view patients as people to listen to but subjects to examine and push drugs on, always thinking they know better and saying insensitive things to invalidate my real struggles. But not her. She LISTENS. God, I have never met a psychiatrist who listens and really LISTENS like her. She cares what you have to say and takes everything you say seriously and into account before all of her carefully thought out decisions. She makes me feel seen, respected, taken seriously, cared for, and listened to. That's a rare find. And she really knows what she's talking about; her knowledge of psych and medication is very impressive beyond expectations. As soon as I started seeing her, she was able to immediately help what was wrong with my meds and change things around to the right mix. She always lays out multiple options (some containing adding meds, but always presenting alternatives and respecting any apprehension to meds), and takes the time to listen and weigh things out to whatever you feel is best for yourself. She helped refer me to mental health treatment in August when my depression was at its worst, and though the treatment was incredible, the psychiatrist there just couldn't compare. It reminded me of how lucky I am to have Dr Mizani, the best of the best. I have depression, anxiety, and a past of an eating disorder and she has been nothing but helpful and wise. These problems are big in my life but she has kept them under control like no other, and when they get less manageable, she finds the right solutions (like when she strongly encouraged me to go to treatment and provided those resources). Finding mental health professionals who know how to handle eating disorders and don't say totally triggering and incorrect things about them is surprisingly difficult, but she is one of the few who knows what she's doing and doesn't say triggering things. If you're struggling with your mental health and like me have fear around psychiatrists and their lack of emotional intelligence, please give Dr Mizani a try. She's different. She's gold.

I was referred Dr. Mizani when I was pregnant, dealing with anxiety and let's face it, I exhausted…read moretalking to my girlfriends about my issues and marriage. I would say I am a type A personality and I like things under my control. Pregnancy, however, turned my emotions on its head. Thanks to a surge of hormones, everything made me highly irritable and aggravated. I knew, or hoped, that it was just the pregnancy. I decided to seek help because I wanted my pregnancy to go smoothly. Dr. Mizani was the perfect person to hear me out. She heard me out and used her expertise to see patterns in my actions and offered me ways to approach concerns I had differently. She got mad with me, when I was mad, and she validated me just enough that it opened the gates to tell her more of what I was dealing with. She was able to discuss sensitive issues about my marriage that didn't make me feel embarrassed. She is highly professional and very experienced with working with personal matters and intimate matters of the heart and soul. I am so glad I was able to have her be my doctor . She is so well read, researched and up to date in her therapeutic approach. I have since referred two other friends to her who are also equally satisfied and comfortable with Dr. Mizani.

No ivory tower here or " Dr. FeelGood". You want smooth then go find a therapist. Dr. P would often share psychiatric journals and studies and gets to the point.

The first thing you notice is that this Dr does all her own calls and appointments. You later discover there is no receptionist and no one to cross paths with in the waiting room either. You discover that this is the doctors way of insuring 100% patient privacy and confidentiality for what one can only assume (at least I do) is a pretty important patient practice. Dr. Pariewski is a no-nonsense type of person. She listens carefully and asks the right questions, and then gets you to reveal what she needs to know. I felt comfortable right away. She turned out to be a perfect fit for me and my particular issue. My life and career have seen benefits. Later, I felt comfortable enough sending friends and clients to see her and each has thanked me for the introduction. In one case, Dr. P's help turned out to change someones life completely, and, hence, changing all of our lives as well. She takes the time and interest in you and your problems and I feel fortunate to have her as my doctor and the doctor of many of my friends.

I almost don't know where to start with this review because Dr. Georgoulis is so incredibly amazing…read moreand has helped me in so many ways. I typically have always been able to handle high stress but unfortunately my stress turned into a very quick and crazy downward spiral of anxiety and insomnia. This is something I had never experienced and it was completely tearing me apart, I felt totally out of control. I found Dr. Georgoulis and although she was a far commute and also at a higher price point I had this feeling that she was going to help me.. After my first session with her I literally felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. She is so incredibly easy to talk to and she really, really knows her stuff. She has the ability to gauge where you are and provide you with the necessary tools and challenges you need to move into a state of understanding and peace with yourself. She is straight-to-the point and each session has a schedule which I really appreciated. I suggest bringing a notebook because she gives you a lot of very helpful information in each session! I appreciated that she pushed me and reinforced in me the strength and courage I felt I was losing.. she's not one to baby you and I think that is one of the best things about her. She expects you to do the work and I'm telling you if you do it, you will see progress. Even after our second or third session she told me that she knew I was only going to need to see her for a total of 12 weeks or so.. it was hard for me to believe but sure enough she was right. She brings light to areas you didn't know needed attention and she guides you through your traumas and brings you to a new relationship within yourself. She truly cares deeply about her patients and I feel so lucky to have found her. If you're ready to do the work please don't hesitate to contact her, you won't regret it!! Thank you Dr. Georgoulis!!!

The purpose of this review is to inform others of their policies before engaging in their services…read more I spent a year and a half in bi-monthly sessions with one of their therapists. This review is not a critique of her ability as a therapist, but rather the manor in which they began strictly enforcing late rescheduling fees. Due to work, I had to reschedule(not cancel) an appointment approximately 38 hours before my scheduled time. Their policy is 48 hours. 3 days later I received a superbill for an automatic late charge fee of $200. When I asked about the charge, their response was curt and uncompromising. Because of this, I chose to part ways. I have never been charged such a fee by a health care provider. Once long term relationships are established with health care providers, it is generally assumed that there is a threshold, a certain amount of leniency/forgiveness in situations like this. For further context, my wife had previously been under long term care with their practice for over 13 years. I hope this helps others know what to expect when engaging with this office and practice.

Ms. Goldman approached her with incredible patience, empathy, and genuine respect, never pushing or forcing the process. Instead, she created a safe, supportive environment where my daughter feels comfortable opening up at her own pace. Over time, I have watched my daughter develop a level of trust in Ms. Goldman that I honestly wasn't sure was possible. She began expressing her thoughts and feelings more openly, communicating more effectively, and, most importantly, feeling genuinely heard, understood, and validated. Witnessing my daughter's growth and transformation has been incredibly meaningful. Ms. Goldman has a remarkable gift for connecting with teenagers. She is compassionate, insightful, and exceptionally skilled at navigating complex family dynamics with professionalism, warmth, and care. I am deeply grateful for the positive impact Ms. Goldman has had on my daughter and will forever appreciate what she accomplished in just the first three to four months of therapy--something prior therapists were unable to achieve even after much longer periods. I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Goldman to any family seeking a therapist who truly listens, connects, and most importantly, cares. She is honest, ethical, and straightforward. She also has a wonderful dog, Mocha, who provides comfort and has captivated our hearts!
