When I first arrived to Dr. Levine, I hadn't left my house in 2 years. I had just come out of rehab for addiction to benzodiazapines and alcohol. I was suicidal, and at a dangerously low weight. My extreme anxiety and depression had spiraled far out of control, and at 28, my parents were incredibly worried about me. I lost my job, moved home, and went to bed, for two years.
I had been to therapy before, but never worked with a psychiatrist concerning adjusting my medications to specific levels. He started me out slowly with different anti-anxiety and antidepressants. Some worked, some didn't.
A few years later, and I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life. I'm dating an actual rocket scientist right now (I know), walk my dog for an hour every day, and created and now run a successful clothing business.
There are really no specific words to describe someone who has completely changed your life. He works with me and my parents, and we have come to truly look forward to every session.
Dr. Levine's patience level, ability to listen, and his guidance is something that I will never take for granted. read more
