She went above and beyond to validate my concerns and listen to my symptoms to construct the perfect treatment plan.

****Incoming TMI review****…read more Eckman? More like THE Man. I love this guy. As someone who has dealt with ADHD for my entire life, I've been through a slew of doctors. Some provided by the schools, some private, but none of them compared to Larry. He's extremely compassionate and understanding, he's nonjudgmental, and you can tell that he has a ton of experience dealing with all forms of ADHD. I started seeing him about 2 years ago after being unmedicated for my entire life. While it took some trial and error to come to a good place, Larry was extremely patient and understanding the entire time. He's not one of those doctors who brings you in, writes a prescription, and sends you on your way. He genuinely wants to help his patients with a mix of both cognitive behavior therapy and medication. What good is medication if you don't have the right habits in place? I can't recommend the guy enough. My experience is exclusively as an adult with ADHD, but I can tell that his temperament and patience would be phenomenal with children. I mean, after all, adults with ADHD are just giant children! :D

Laurence Eckman came into my life at a time when I needed his perspective and approach to patient…read morecare more than words could ever portray. He helped me pivot in such a way that I was able to finish naturopathic medical school despite many nearly insurmountable, disability obstacles. As a naturopathic student, I gave it my all to do things naturally and made huge, necessary strides, but it wasn't until Laurence planted the seed that medication is natural for the biochemistry of the ADHD brain, that my life started to change. He reassured me that there is no shame in taking medication in the pursuit of an equal chance at accomplishing my dream of gaining knowledge and sharing it with others. In a sentence: Laurence gets it. My grades immediately improved, quite drastically. Not only was I able to advocate for myself and others to receive academic accommodations; but I was also finally able to integrate medical knowledge and apply it in the structured, linear format of school and work. All without losing my creativity and outside the box thinking, per our therapy sessions together. The capacity I held for managing my daily activities and work-life balance also benefited from the increase in executive function, especially since I was able to start living the naturopathic philosophy and see real healing for the first time. In addition, the newfound engagement with my skills in the clinic re-inspired my motivation to keep fighting the good fight at medical school, paving the way for a more accepting future in education as well as medicine. 10/10 recommend the support of Laurence on your journey towards acceptance and healing while accomplishing your dreams. I will carry many of his words of wisdom and life hacks with me onward as both a patient and a doctor. Laurence always went above and beyond to ensure my continuity of care, was reliable, efficient, understanding, empathetic, honest, and always willing to go to bat for us [patients]! This kind of integrity is rare these days. Laurence, I truly hope our paths cross again one day! Cheers, Lianne Aglietti, ND.

Marriage Counseling with Darcy We came to Cornerstone…read moreClinical Service for marriage coaching. My wife and I started going and we were driving to appointments together. Working through struggles Darcy suggested a separation for our marriage. This had no drawn out plan or timeline. This appointment was made as an unscheduled meeting and happened on a Friday before Mothers Day weekend. They wanted me to leave the home. Today we are still separated and I suggested forgiveness and reconciliation. Darcy abandoned us and said she was unable to counsel us any longer. So she suggests separation and then it doesn't work because there was no drawn out plan. Abandons us and says to find someone else. These are professional that are supposed to help in even the most difficult situations. We went 2-3 weeks between appointments which was so painful, especially when sessions were rough. I became hopeful as we finally had the first of 4 weekly appointments in September. I actually had hope these weekly sessions would help and allow us to work through issues. In that first session it was painful to hear her say she was unable to counsel us. No explanation could justify this. It was a feeling of total abandonment. This was right before the first of 4 weekly sessions. On top of that my mom just died 8/16/24 two weeks before we were abandoned. Stay away from this place and know a counselor needs to have a full plan in order to suggest a separation. This separation was a toxic plan that dug a deeper hole instead of drawing our marriage closer. Separation is not Gods plan, unless it's a domestic abusive relationship. The Bible and the Lord are the only resources that can be trusted. The Bible's word never changes. It's truth. It leads people toward repentance, forgiveness and reconciliation. Save yourself the pain and heartache and find wise biblical counselors. Most of these people don't charge anything and try love others.

Very thankful for their service and working with our family to help us figure out our children's needs. We really connected with Dr. Flegel and she definitely takes the time to understand your child and gives you the appropriate education and options so you can decide what works best for your child/family. Appointments have been virtual due to covid. It will be nice to have some in-person care when able but for some appointments it will be nice to have a virtual option. Just thankful we were able to receive care during this time. Thank you for your great service and family care. I highly recommend Mind Matters and Dr. Flegel!
