Jessica is not my first therapist, so I can say from experience that she is the best that there is!…read more An abusive family situation and boyfriends to follow are what put me in therapy in the first place. Jessica has helped me create strategies for dealing with stress at home and at work, improving my self-confidence, and building a successful relationship. She is supportive and is great at not only hearing what you're saying, but hearing what you may not realize you're saying. I would highly recommend her (and I have) to anyone who has experienced childhood trauma, has self-esteem issues, or who is ready to make a big change in the way they view themselves and the world. I am a completely different person because of her help.

Working with Dr…read more Frank gave me my life back and enabled me to create a future I was not able to imagine when I began working with her. I came to Dr. Frank years ago, in the midst of crisis which was preventing me from being present in my own life. In a relatively short period, I was able to recognize my self-destructive actions and move forward in my life. With her help, I didn't just get back to where I was before, but I found myself in a better, more secure, and accepting place. Dr. Frank has been instrumental in my ability to accomplish so much - personally and professionally. I am deeply grateful for her.

I guess I could say I was stuck with certain beliefs and there was no way to change them…read more For example, one of my many beliefs was that my wife had to read Shakespeare (no kidding), or else we had nothing in common. Moreover, it was equally important that our daughters had to go out with guys that knew Shakespeare by heart (What a hypocrite - I certainly don't, but that's beside the point. Just how crazy was I? Without judgement, without giving me a lot of advice, without interpreting me with "valuable insights", Valery helped those beliefs relax. Turns out that the part of me that thought not getting Shakespeare disqualified a person from the human didn't truly believe it. But it thought it was doing something good for me, keeping me safe from the local thugs in the neighborhood, setting me apart among the peaceful intellectual types, but that was long, long ago. Ultimately, with Valery's help, I learned to appreciate that part and ultimately let it go to do something else. How pleasant family life has become without all my beliefs stirring everyone up. P.S. She has two offices: one in Harvard Square and one in Lexington, MA. She doesn't take insurance.

WOW!! The power of her presence as a teacher and mentor expands your consciousness and truly brings you to another level. As a teacher, Sirry is dedicated, kind, generous, tuned in! and so knowledgeable. She brings out the very best in you and her classes are fun and fascinating. I felt my own abilities opening and growing stronger just being in her class and it felt so natural. That's what it's like to be in the presence of a true medium and a true teacher. You will be inspired and filled with love working with Sirry ! Sirry is a gifted and natural born medium. I feel so lucky to have found her in the Boston area. I always feel like I am in the presence of someone from a different realm when I am in Sirry's class. I have taken a few mediumship classes in my life with famous mediums but nothing compares to the way Sirry imparts her wisdom and guides you. She IS a rare Gem and the real deal. I highly recommend Sirry's services.

The Dr spent a lot of time testing in the beginning and showing the results of the tests but there were no plans to retest at the end if 20 sessions. The only thing that was repeated was a very subjective and unreliable survey rating aspects of her symptoms on a scale of 1-5. Dr Ross was sure that my daughters speech had improved when it was clear to all of us that it was no different or even worse that day. This was a huge waste of thousands of dollars.

It took my brain a while, so be patient if you don't see instant results. Dr. Ross continues to be engaging and helpful in our discussions and check-ins. It is clear to me she cares about her clients and is passionate about the work she does (as is everyone in the office). The staff are kind and it is clear they care about each other and the clients. The office is a little hard to find if you are using the googlemaps phone app. You should look for the driveway close to the train tracks then go to the left and down. There are designated parking spots.
