Dana saved my life. I started seeing her five years ago, for some really disruptive thinking that…read morewas making my life way more painful than it needed to be. Dana introduced CBT to me and also uncovered some more serious core issues. She helped me get sober and guided me gracefully and gently through every challenging crossroads in my life. I owe so much of my happiness to the work we've done together. If I could work with her 10 hours a week, I would, but I suppose I have to share. *eye roll*

I've had the opportunity to work with Dana over the last 5 months on a range of issues like…read moreanxiety, relationship troubles, dealing with childhood traumas, etc. Her garden studio has been such a pleasure to visit, and I've always felt calm and at ease there. Dana herself is incredibly kind, non-judgmental, and easy to open up to -- I looked forward to our sessions as one of the highlights of my week, and have seen so much growth within myself even in this short time. Starting therapy is one of the best things I've done for myself, and I feel so fortunate to have found Dana.

The facility itself is very cute, for lack of a better word. It's unassuming from the outside, but…read morelooks almost like an old Spanish-colonial style house in the main house with a kitchen area for patients and a koi pond in the outside sitting area. In terms of care, I really enjoyed being a patient here. This was my first experience as a patient in PHP/IOP. I was a patient for three months, dealing with mental disorder that impaired my functioning in work, school, social life, and self-care. You are assigned an individual therapist to meet with weekly and/or a case manager. You can request to switch individual therapists if you don't feel a good enough rapport between yourself and your assigned therapist. The group therapy schedule is pretty static week to week, but there is almost always a choice between two groups, so you have some ability to "customize" your schedule. I didn't enjoy all facilitators, but I enjoyed most and learned a lot about how to manage and process my emotions/thoughts/behaviors/traumas. The psychiatric team put me on the first medication combination in my life that really worked for my specific set of symptoms. They are courteous and attentive. They remember even non-clinical details about me when we meet weekly. Mission Harbor is also much more affordable (in my opinion) than other centers offering similar care. I paid my insurance's deductible--with which Mission Harbor provided flexibility due to my personal financial hardship--and the team was diligent with handling my disability insurance claim in a timely manner. I would recommend Mission Harbor to anyone looking to seriously challenge their mental disorders and carve a path to a better way of living and thinking! I would even readmit if I felt I needed the care and support again.

Wendy and Alina are literal angels. They care so much and are so gentle and sweet. ALL the therapists are such AMAZING human beings and really care about what you have to say and know exactly what they are doing. They cultivate such a healing and calm environment. It's by far the most healing space I've ever encountered. They want you to succeed and do everything they can to meet your needs. The snacks are INCREDIBLE and they listen to requests. They also have any type of fidget toy you can imagine. This became my second home at one point and the highlight of my day for a long time. The groups are so invaluable and they really help you work through and process things properly. Even the clients are so patient and supportive of one another. The staff really goes above & beyond here and I am so grateful for such a positive experience.

Felt like she did it in a mean-spirited way. Would never go back to this low energy type facility. Their appeal process is a joke and obviously sides with their staff.

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.
