    If you are a patient you don't get to use the same toilet facilities as the staff and if patient toilet is unavailable you wet your pants.

    I began working with Stella Michon early in the summer of 2020. Freshly divorced, on the verge of…read morelosing my business, and struggling with the relative isolation I was experiencing during the pandemic: I can confidently say I'd hit the lowest low of my adult life. Over the past 9 months--an oddly symbolic amount of time during which to experience a rebirth--I've made progress of which I'm very proud. I'm learning to treat myself with greater compassion, and navigating my emotions in much healthier ways than I ever have. As a result of my gradually increasing patience and self-love, I'm a better communicator than I've ever been and feel much better equipped to write this next chapter of my life. I owe a great deal of my success to the work Stella has done with me. I'm beyond grateful for her skill, compassion, intellect, and overall grace as a healing presence in my life. With her guidance and the work she helps me to do, I've managed to salvage my business, improve my ability to interact with all kinds of people in stressful situations, and learned how to show myself the compassion I deserve. I can't thank Stella enough for the progress she's helping me to make, and I look forward to working with her for years to come. She's a phenomenal therapist and I recommend her with every ounce of passion I've got.

I called the next day during business hours, left a message regarding their missed consultation appointment, I have not received any call back, no apology, nothing. Incredibly unprofessional and disappointing as I have a child that is experiencing extreme anxiety and it seemed like this would be the perfect place to help.

    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.
