Renee saved my marriage! I know my sounds extreme but without her, I don't think our relationship…read morewould be where it's at now. Or at least we wouldn't have gotten here as soon as we did. She made us realize that the things we thought we had on lock down were really not and they need some fixing. Its not always going to be easy to hear what she has to say , but let's face it, we were searching for a therapist because we needed help/ just a little push in the right direction. She is straightforward and but still makes you feel comfortable enough to reach out when you need advice, even after hours. I 100% recommend her form the bottom of my heart. Let's put it this way, I haven't talked to her in over a year but I still felt the need to send her a thank you letter letting her know that we are still going strong, because of her. I will be forever grateful for this women!

Dr winters is incredibly raw, vulnerable, great at what she does, loves what she does (isn't…read moremiserable giving people advice). I've actively done therapy for 15 years but can't say that I've met someone like her. She is also easy to reach, no fuss and makes herself easy to approach and open up to. Love her relaxing office setting as well and I highly recommend her. I will say you have to be a match for her and her personality and isn't that the point of being human? Highly recommend for all relationship types she will easily add so much personal and professional development to your life

I can honestly say Cathy Hayes is one of the best marriage and family therapists out there. A…read morecouple of years ago, my fiancée and I were at our lowest point--we had both made mistakes, constantly argued, and were ready to separate and only co-parent. Cathy completely changed the direction of our lives. From the very first session, she made us both feel safe and understood, never taking sides but truly helping us understand and rebuild our relationship. She helped us communicate, heal old wounds, and grow stronger than we ever thought possible. She even worked with us to make counseling affordable during a tough time, which meant so much. We haven't been in therapy for over two years now, but the positive changes she helped us create are still thriving today. Our relationship is better than ever--we're planning our wedding and building a beautiful future for our family. Cathy didn't just help us stay together; she helped us transform into the best version of ourselves as a couple and as parents. We'll always be grateful for her incredible guidance and support.

I hesitated writing this review, however if I can help one person then that is good enough for me…read more I went to Renee for a few months and did find parts of our work together helpful. Unfortunately, my final session left me feeling judged and belittled rather than supported. While discussing my 19-year marriage and my former husband's infidelity, she repeatedly told me she couldn't believe I hadn't realized he was having affairs, while laughing or snickering as she said it. I had told her how unhappy I have been for many many years before this affair. She repeatedly questioned why I stayed in the marriage. I came to therapy in part to understand those choices and experiences, so leaving a session feeling foolish or naïve for them was deeply upsetting. I value honest feedback and expect a therapist to challenge me, but I also expect those conversations to be handled with respect and compassion. I was also uncomfortable with details about other clients' circumstances being shared as examples, even without names. Ultimately, I no longer felt emotionally safe or respected in the therapeutic relationship and decided to find another therapist.

I want to say thank you to Dr.Pardis and her team. Honestly, I knew my son had autistic traits…read moresince he was 1 year old and we moved from OC to Riverside which caused a delay with getting him an appt with a doctor and a referral and his diagnosis. But when I called Dr.Pardis' office they assisted me with that step and took away a hurdle. I was never hesitant to get the confirmation, because of the stims, and echolalia my Son has among other things. Entering the office felt warm like if we had been there for years. My son was in a comfort zone and I appreciated that. The day of the official diagnosis I was so overwhelmed with emotions, sadness was the biggest, even though I knew, it was real. And Dr.Pardis validated me as a parent in all my feels and I truly love her for that ! She spoke to my husband included him without him being there with no hesitation. I would recommend her over and over and my drive to her wasn't local and I wouldn't even change that for anything. Thank you all so much and I can't wait to see you at our yearly visit !

From the moment we walked into the autism center, the experience was nothing short of exceptional…read more The office manager set the tone right away--welcoming, organized, and genuinely kind. It was clear that they cared not only about efficiency, but about creating a comfortable and supportive environment for families. Every staff member we encountered showed the same level of compassion and understanding. Navigating care for autism can often feel overwhelming, but the team here made it feel manageable and even reassuring. They took the time to listen, answer questions thoroughly, and ensure that we felt heard every step of the way. The doctor was equally outstanding--patient, knowledgeable, and deeply empathetic. Rather than rushing through the appointment, they made a real effort to connect, explain things clearly, and provide thoughtful guidance tailored to our needs. What stood out the most was the consistency across the entire center. From front desk to clinical care, everyone worked together seamlessly with a shared sense of purpose: to support and uplift. It truly felt like we were surrounded by people who not only understood autism but genuinely cared about the individuals and families they serve. I would highly recommend this center to anyone seeking compassionate, professional, and supportive care.

I wanted to add an update. Lyndee, the owner of the business, personally reached out and took the…read moretime to fully understand the situation while also explaining the process from their side. I truly appreciated the care and effort she put into resolving this issue. She was incredibly kind, professional, and exactly the type of person I would hope to encounter when seeking support from a mental health facility. Her willingness to listen and work toward a resolution made a significant difference in my experience. Thank you so much, Lyndee. I am very grateful that you took the time to reach out and help.

Trying to schedule a new patient appointment with Lyndee, the owner of this practice was beyond…read moremiserable. Clearly shes not empathetic to new patients and much too much busy for new appointments for non-patients. I requested her specifically due to the form of therapy she does. But her receptionist, appointment scheduler just turned me away. I was referred to other 'clinical' therapists that i did not care for because they do not do the kind of therapy that Lyndee does. Lyndee's form of therapy from her website states: "Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). Empath. Do any of these words sound familiar to you? Have you ever felt or have been told that you are "too sensitive"? Maybe you have felt empathy for others on such a deep level that is hard to explain. You may feel as if you actually begin to take on the mental and emotional state of another and find yourself dealing with added anxiety, depression." Clinical Psychologist don't connect this way which was why i asked for her. But she's too booked up for new patients. So when professionals are too busy, too booked up WHY would they be open to new patients? She should perhaps CHANGE the notes in her profile that shes NOT open to new patients. She was referred by IEHP, i am only 8 min. away from her office. Her consultations dont take more than 1 hour. Yet Lyndee is too busy to squeeze in an hour of her busy schedule to take a new patient TO HELP. Perhaps her empathic ability doesn't connect to new patients that need her. Very disappointment. Yelpers, I Do Not recommend this therapist. Lyndee is too booked. RESPONSE TO LYNDEE'S RESPONSE: You told your office what to tell me. Your office didn't say what i was told. You told the lady in your office to tell me that a clinical therapist could be referred. You told your office you were too booked. Be more accountable of what you told your office what to say to me. Your reply is not full transparency or full disclosure Lyndsee. Even if you allowed me an appointment, i wouldn't even consider it now leaving blame to your office Really?

I had a very positive experience going through the assessment process. What I was hoping to get out…read moreof the process was an accurate assessment and suggestions that were both specific to me and helpful/actionable. I didn't want to end up feeling uncertain or questioning the results, and I didn't want to receive a diagnosis without a clear idea of what to do next. Both of those goals were met. The assessment process was very thorough, the results were clearly explained and I left with a clearer view of what I've been experiencing. I trust the results, and I didn't feel like there were loose ends I questioned or information I didn't get to share during the process. I also received plenty of resources and referrals, and discussed a clear first couple of steps to take. In addition to the guidance on what support to look for, I also got feedback on what types of things might not apply to me, and what things to make sure to avoid. Overall I'm very happy with what I learned from the assessment, and during the whole process Dr. Blied was incredibly helpful and kind.

Thankful is the main word I can think of to portray how Dr. Blied has impacted our life. After 16…read moreyears, our "normal" child was suddenly "different". We were lost! We received a referral and Dr. Blied made so much effort to ensure my child, as well as we as parents, were comfortable, informed and heard. The clarity she provided ensured we understood the past unknown issues and options to manage the issues for a healthier future. What we will achieve as a family, with patience and commitment, wouldn't be possible without the guidance of Dr. Blied!
