I hesitated to provide a public review for this mental health clinic for privacy reasons. I…read moreunderstand that seeking support in addressing mental health challenges is deeply personal and varies widely from person to person. I also understand that many people don't seek help because of a real or imagined social stigma to doing so. However, I believe it's important for all of us to share reliable resources that may be helpful to others in need of emotional healing or support. I chose the Holistic Mental Health Clinic as a resource for emotional healing, particularly in the area of post-traumatic stress. I was hesitant to make an appointment anywhere, and I am fortunate that I chose this clinic. The clinic provides a professional and safe environment in a medium-sized office building located in St Peterburg, Florida. It is located in a partly-residential area of the city on a main street where parking is not a problem. There is a dedicated parking lot next to the building that offers free parking. My experience at this clinic was rewarding. My counselor, Lynn, was very professional, intelligent, capable, thorough, and caring. I found Lynn to be reliable, dependable, well-grounded, and honest at all times. Lynn added professional guidance and value to my healing process and she taught me coping skills that were proven, balanced and effective. Lynn was never judgmental. She always had my best interests as her primary objective. Lynn never promised unrealistic expectations, and she skillfully facilitated my healing process emotionally, physically, and spiritually by offering insightful and proven strategies that I could adapt to my lifestyle. Although Lynn was an essential part of my healing process for whom I will always be extremely grateful, the professional relationship we had between us was based on self-empowerment and mutual cooperation, not dependence. She presented opportunities for healing and learning, but never encouraged me to do more than I was comfortable doing. She identified challenge areas that I had not seen, and gently but confidently encouraged me to push through areas of discomfort and challenge myself when I felt ready. As far as my expectations as to outcome, Lynn created mutually agreed upon goals for my sessions, clarifying both health-related and cost-related expectations. She never cut my sessions short. All my expectations were either met to my satisfaction or exceeded. My health insurance does not cover counseling, but my overall spiritual, emotional and physical well-being is something that I value and I juggled my budget to afford this investment in myself. I have never regretted that I did so and the results I experienced were both impressive and have been on-going. The clinic was at all times transparent in its billing practices, accepted credit cards as payment, and accommodated my scheduling and budget concerns to the extent it could do so. Like many professional organizations that are entirely service-based for individuals, this clinic similarly charges for "no show" appointments. I never had the impression that fees were more important than my well-being. I recommend this clinic for anyone experiencing a mental health challenge and I encourage you to set up an initial consultation. However, whether it will be a good fit for you -- or right for you at this time in your life -- is something you and someone at the clinic will need to determine (you should ask what the rate for an initial consultation would be in advance ). Best wishes to you, and God bless.

Connie is my first trauma therapist. I've been in and out of therapy since I was 12. :( I didn't…read moreknow there was a such thing as a trauma therapist (let alone that I needed one!) and I was treating all therapy as the same, like a verbal journal. I just gotta say, she has been extremely validating--I have been vulnerable about my extremely dysfunctional family and she GETS IT. She's good at challenging my cognitive dissonance and giving ACTIONABLE FEEDBACK that I can work on throughout the week to break down my deregulated thinking. I have texted her 2-3x with simple questions outside of our meeting times and she has gotten back to me within the hour. She listens to me and though I know we have separate viewpoints on religion, she has always respected our differing views and I'm genuinely grateful for that. It's been maybe a month and a half of trauma therapy, and I don't have those hateful intrusive thoughts of negative self-worth nearly as much anymore. If ever a need arises for me to seek therapy again, I will be looking for trauma-informed therapists like Connie. Connie knows what's up.

Her calm approach…read moreand knowledge of grief herself has given her a unique view of what you feel as you go through the stages grief brings. She is non-judge mental and has been open to discuss what ever I needed to talk about. She is a genuinely caring person and you will see that the first time you meet her. I'm glad my Doctor recommended her because she turned out to be just what I needed, someone to listen to me. I would recommend her to anyone suffering from grief or just if you need someone to help you find direction in your life. Thanks Amy

She is the secret to my success and I have benefited greatly from her incredible coaching & counseling throughout the years. With her help, I've created a brand new career, founded an exciting new business, navigated my teenager through two new schools and learned how to be a better parent. But perhaps the greatest gift of all, was Amy's help and support when my best friend suffered through terminal Cancer. As her Medical Advocate, I was on hand to guide her through every stage of that horrible disease, but I quickly learned that even an Advocate needs their own Advocate, especially when it comes to handling grief. It was especially hard for me to honor her final wishes when they were diametrically opposed to mine and I had to learn how to be patient, flexible, and focused on the objectives at hand, even during the worst of times. After her final breath, it was Amy's great empathy and wisdom that enabled me to pick up the pieces and begin anew. Amy Menke has a 6th sense about her and an innate way to know just what to say and when to say it. Truly a gift for all. And although I continually give her credit for all that I have become, Amy always says that I was the one to do all the hard work. She remains humble as to not seek any attention or stand in the limelight, instead she goes quietly about her extraordinary commitment to helping others behind the scenes. I have no doubt that she will continue to see me through many more of life's great adventures and I will be forever grateful that she is by my side.
