There is so much detail that goes into such a treatment and sadly unless you have experience from multiple locations you may not realize that you may or may not be getting proper treatment.

I can not recommend her enough. She has a heart of gold and the world needs more people like her. Thank you Linda!!

Erin from Family Therapy Solutions is an absolute godsend -- I truly can't recommend her enough. I…read morefirst found her on Yelp and then came across her videos on YouTube, which really stood out. After a bit of back and forth with my healthcare provider, I was finally able to get Erin approved as my primary therapist -- and I'm so glad I did. She's the real deal: kind, but no-nonsense. Erin tells it like it is -- no sugarcoating -- and gives honest, practical, real-world advice that comes from deep experience. She's professional, direct, and incredibly insightful. Whether it's individual, couples, or family therapy -- especially for those in public safety or military circles -- Erin brings a deep understanding and a grounded approach to each session. She listens closely and stays focused on the issue at hand. Sessions are typically an hour long and always feel productive -- there's no wasted time or empty filler. My first session with her was during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and while I did meet her in person once at her Clovis office, we've continued sessions via FaceTime ever since -- which has worked seamlessly. What I appreciate most is that Erin is not judgmental -- she hears both sides of a situation and helps us find realistic, usable solutions. It's clear she genuinely cares about our mental health and well-being. And when the medical system doesn't come through the way it should... Erin does. I'll just leave it at that. It's comforting to know she's only a phone call away when things get heavy and you need real, grounded feedback from someone you trust. If you're looking for a therapist who cuts through the noise, brings clarity, and truly has your back -- Erin is it. Five stars all the way.

If you are seeking mental health treatment in the Central Valley, Aspire is the place!! I have been…read moreto a few other mental health facilities in the area and found little success in improving my condition. When I found Aspire, Kim from intake made the intake process comforting and easy. The counselors, Toni, Kayella and Brittany, are the best staff possible. They care so much about each client and spend as much time as possible getting to know their clients and meet their needs. The atmosphere is comforting, making it incredibly easy to be authentic without anxiety. While I was there, we had a Thanksgiving feast, played corn hole outside on one of the few days it was sunny, did yoga and meditation, and created artwork. The program incorporates therapy with fun and I was always excited to be attending in the mornings. This program changed my life and I will always be grateful for Aspire and the staff at Aspire. Have a great day and don't be afraid to get help!!

Can't say I was impressed with the service or level of care. As a parent of a teen that was…read morereferred here, I was more concerned about my child walking away with bad habits. They say they advocate for your child when in reality, they help them get over on the parents to get what they want and use the system to help them. They called CPS on me after I tried alternative natural medication for his anxiety that was recommended by my child's physician and they said I was giving him "drugs". they never talk to parents to see what's going on at home and when you ask to have a sit down to clear up things, they accuse you of having a mental breakdown and try to refer you to their adult sessions, yea, no thanks. My kid did not like program or the kids he had group with.

She allows for first time online scheduling, and is able to accommodate for some week to week flexibility in scheduling. She has flexibility for some after work appointments as well as during the day. (I think she even might have some Saturday's available.) Make sure you check with her and your insurance if you will be covered through insurance or through private pay. (Private Pay option might be pricey if you have to go that way, as there is no sliding scale here.) If you are able to, I definitely recommend her. I believe she will have other therapists at this location soon, and I don't know if they will be different or have the same situations with payment-definitely check it out. The new location (this listed location) has such a calm vibe. She uses soft music and aromatherapy in the lobby area, and the colors of furniture and pain are beautiful and serene.

Is Dr. Melissa Tihin the most unethical doctor licensed in Fresno County?…read more I had a very troubling experience with Central Valley Family Therapy in Clovis, and their owner and CEO Dr. Melissa Tihin, when trying to access my own records. After my direct request to supervisor Juliana Ball, I was told that I would need to hire a lawyer or have records released to a representative instead of directly to me. I made a written record immediately after my meeting and follow-up call, so I am confident about what I was told. When CEO Dr. Melissa Tihin later called me, the conversation escalated after I referenced my written record documenting that I had been told a lawyer was required. She denied that was ever said. I mentioned that my sessions were also audio recorded, as that is their standard practice, and that it could help clarify what was communicated. Dr. Tihin stated that she had listened to my session recordings and did not hear the supervisor say that. This surprised me because I had previously been told that only my counselor would have access to those recordings. That inconsistency raised concerns for me about privacy and internal practices. Immediately after informing Dr. Tihin about my written record, I was told that my services were being terminated. I was also told that my daughter's counseling services would be discontinued, even though I am not the parent who enrolled her or manages her care. That situation felt very concerning to me and raised questions about how decisions are made regarding patient care. This experience left me questioning the clinic's policies around records access, communication, and patient rights. I also found myself wondering how situations involving sensitive issues would be handled and whether patient advocacy would be prioritized in difficult circumstances. I also had concerns about whether cost or business considerations may influence certain policies or decisions, though I cannot speak to that directly. Overall, I left feeling confused, uncomfortable, and concerned about transparency, communication, and how patient records and session information are managed. I would strongly recommend that anyone considering this provider ask very clear questions upfront about records access, privacy, and internal policies.

Now we understand his sensory needs, and we have a sensory diet to follow. We have tools to actually help him when he's disregulated, where we used to feel powerless. We've been to other OT's, but worked to come back and work with Priscilla as soon as we could. She had truly helped us understand our child better, and forever changed our lives in the process.
