We've had a really good marriage for over 36 years, but felt like we were "stuck" in our…read morecommunication patterns. So we came to Jenny to help us fine-tune our communication skills. We hoped she would give us some tips and techniques that we could apply. She didn't. Instead, Jenny helped us discover some of the root issues that got in the way of connecting effectively. In her non-threatening, compassionate style, she helped us unpack some old baggage that we didn't realize was even there. It wasn't just about changing behavior or wallowing in the past; it was about healing and moving forward. Our growth hasn't just affected our personal relationship; it's impacted our professional lives as well. We've become stronger as individuals, and it has impacted all of our relationships. We wanted her to help us swat flies. She helped us patch the hole in the screen door. Recommended without reservation. Period. (A couple in Fullerton)

I sometimes hesitate to recommend people or services to others because if they are not happy with…read morethe end result I don't want to feel responsible for the referral. With that being said, I am so confident in the person and therapist that Jenny is, it is without reservation that I would strongly recommend her as a therapist. Jenny's ability to listen with compassion alone in itself is what I appreciate most about her. She truly understands my pain and connects with me no matter where I am at making me feel like I am not alone. This is something that I've never experienced before. She allows me the freedom to say how I am feeling and at the same time, I know that she is not going to judge me. More than anything, I appreciate Jenny's patience when I can't find the words to articulate what I am feeling inside. She gently encourages me to stick with what I am trying to say and eventually I am able to find my words and express my thoughts. My childhood has haunted me for so many years. I was terrified that others would think differently of me if they knew about my life or the things that happened to me. I didn't trust anyone...I didn't know how to let others in to my world or heart... and then one day I met Jenny... my life has been forever changed and forever I will be grateful!

Dr. Robbins was a fantastic couples therapist. Really provided sound active listening and conflict…read moreresolution tools that could be used in real life. Nothing nebulous or overtly complicated. Provided very neutral feedback utilizing faith based lessons. You're going to both go in hurt and feeling lost. He doesn't take sides like a lot of less experienced therapists do but he is honest and gentle in his feedback. If you really want to learn proper conflict resolution or about tools that will help you steer conflict to a more amicable place, I highly recommend Dr. Robbins. Life is not perfect and neither are any of us. Learning to love each other with faith based teachings has provided my wife and I with a tremendous path forward. Our relationship is flourishing after about 10 sessions. Best investment we could have made. All the best to anyone looking into getting help.

I found Claudia from The Love Courses on Yelp during a very difficult period in my relationship. My…read morethen-fiancé and I were struggling, and Claudia reached out almost immediately after I posted my request. She was able to schedule us for an in-person session right away, which meant a lot during such an emotional time. Claudia is an exceptional therapist. She truly listens to both partners and makes each person feel heard and respected. At the same time, she isn't afraid to ask thoughtful, direct, and sometimes tough questions that get to the heart of the issue. While our relationship ultimately had several core challenges that couldn't be resolved, Claudia played a crucial role in helping us navigate that reality with clarity and compassion. She guided us through what she calls "uncoupling," allowing both of us to come to terms with the relationship ending in a healthy and grounded way. I'm incredibly grateful that we found Claudia, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking honest, skilled, and deeply compassionate couples counseling.

Claudia is AMAZING. My husband and I went to her for our first year of marriage (pre marital…read morecounseling) to ensure we were starting our marriage off strong. It was the best investment we ever made. Claudia is a great listener, provides excellent tools, and is always in both of your corners rooting you on. She utilizes cutting edge research to help strengthen bonds and improve mental health. One of the many things I love about Claudia is that she herself is always learning and taking extra classes and courses to strengthen her own toolbox of resources. My husband said, "the tools she's given us, we don't even realize we use them anymore because it's like muscle memory now." Life is truly about living to the fullest, most peaceful and joyful route and while you may not even think you need couples therapy, I can guarantee it'll help even the strongest of couples!

I reached out to this center looking for guidance in a very stressful life situation I knew I…read moreneeded professional help with. I had been to traditional psych therapies a few years ago. In fact, it was 3 years of therapy that, looking back, really on helped me in the first month to deal with the initial reason for seeking help. I which I would have known about Self Help back then and probably would've saved years of therapy that was going no where. From my very first session with Nancy, I felt there was real progress. I got insight to my learned behavior from past experiences and how that affected my reaction/connection to the world around me. Both my internal and external reactions continued to shape the present experiences that caused continued fear and guilt that was paralyzing. I wasn't myself. But with Nancy's guidance, I learned more about my internal processes and that understanding empowered me. Through each session and "homework assignments" I gained new confidence and regained control to bring about a positive behavior change that allows me to enjoy myself again. I also brought my adult son and my husband to these sessions and it has helped them as well. Also, although these sessions were not covered by my PPO insurance I was able to get reimbursed through my Healthcare spending account which is a huge plus. They are very punctual, professional, and responsive. Though sometimes they don't answer the phone right away, they usually respond within the hour when I leave a message. They are very clear about their no show policy at the first visit. They are respectful of your time and they expect respect for theirs as well. I've been to over a dozen sessions and never waited more than 5minutes for my appt. I've had to reschedule twice and never got charged a no show fee because I notified them at least 24hrs in advance. It is a professional practice for excellent self help therapy.

No one answered, but I got a call at 6:11 saying I could still come if I arrived by 6:30. I let them know that I had my baby with me so I just had to drop her off at my mom's & I rushed over, got there at 6:28 --no answer.Nobody called to let me know that my appointment was canceled, I waited outside for over an hour and a half , calling repeatedly and leaving multiple voicemails where I clearly sounded overwhelmed and desperate. I never got a call back not even the day after. This place is extremely unprofessional & clearly does not care about their clients, just the money. A simple message saying they couldn't see me would've gone a long way. I was left alone and emotionally distressed. I would never recommend this place to anyone.

I normally don't write negative reviews, but my experience with Dr. Robbins left me deeply…read moredisturbed, especially during our last couples therapy session. One of the most concerning moments was when he told me that my childhood trauma was my "perception." I shared that my mom would wake me up in the middle of the night to console her through panic attacks. I then asked him if a child being molested by a parent would also be "perception," and he said yes. He later clarified that perception doesn't mean it didn't happen--but using that word felt extremely invalidating. When I expressed that, he dismissively responded, "Okay, I just won't use that word if you don't like it." Throughout our sessions, he emphasized "self-control." When I shared that I believe control and self-control are often used to push away feelings, he immediately told me we could not work together. When I tried to explain my perspective, he shut down and refused to share his own thoughts. During that same session, he disengaged almost completely--remaining silent and appearing to stare me down. He said he didn't want to "argue," but I was simply expressing how I felt. Therapy should be a safe space to communicate openly, not one where a therapist withdraws when challenged. There was also a situation where my wife stormed out of last session because I didn't want to spend our 45 minute session going through a 50-page workbook. I preferred to do that outside of session time. Despite this, Dr. Robbins placed the blame entirely on me. And because I kept urging Dr. Robbins to look at the underlying root issues in our relationship, he acted very childishly by using that same approach in a crude way on me. My wife lost our family 500k by gambling it away in stocks and crypto. He asked how it made me feel and what trauma that was coming from. Obviously, it makes me feel like I don't matter, but I want to break the cycle of my childhood trauma where boundaries were not allowed, and I want to set boundaries with my wife. When Dr. Robbins heard that, he didn't care to respond, because his main goal was to one up me by using the root cause methods I was urging him to use. At another point, he asked, "Where do feelings come from?" I said the inner child, and he responded, "No, it comes from behavior." I am always talking to my son about feelings and emotions, and after the session I told him what Dr. Robbins said about feelings not coming from the inner child. My six-year-old son's immediate response was, "what the h*ll." Even my six-year old son is emotionally smarter than Dr. Robbins. I would not recommend working with Dr. Robbins because he uses his pain and his coping mechanisms to dictate the session. After ten sessions, we had no real improvement in our relationship.
