I started working out with Alison a little over a year ago, and have been extremely happy with my…read morefitness progress ever since. I've always had a love/hate relationship with exercise and fitness, including failed attempts at jumping on exercise trends, and even working with trainers in the past. Nothing ever seemed to click, until now! In my first session with her, I explained to her how I would never be a runner because I didn't have the confidence (specifically "I look stupid doing it"), and with my newfound confidence, I am running my first half marathon in January. Alison is extremely knowledgable about how the body works, and helps me to understand what muscles I'm engaging, and how every move and motion affects my overall fitness. Under Alison's tutelage, I've seen a huge transformation in my strength, confidence, and overall mindset. Working out with her is always a pleasure - she pushes me physically, but I always find myself laughing and genuinely having a great time. I definitely owe so much of my transition to a healthier lifestyle to Alison!

I have seen many therapists throughout my life, and Kate is the one I feel most taken care of by,…read moremost connected to, and most understood by. She is a fantastic therapist; she really listens and participates in the session, helping me talk back to distortions I have in my thinking. She is very attentive and has an amazing memory. By having appointments at various times of the day including earlier some days and into the late evenings other days, she is accommodating to what her patients need which I really appreciate. She also has a really simple and easy billing system - it sounds minor but paying therapists has ALWAYS been such a painful experience with everyone else that I've seen (remembering to bring my checkbook, having to coordinate to get a hand-written summary to send for insurance reimbursement, etc.). With Kate, I have auto-pay set up using my credit card, and I get a thorough monthly superbill emailed to me like clockwork to supply to insurance, so easy. She's the only therapist I've ever looked forward to seeing - knowing it will help me process what's going on in my day-to-day life and I'll come out with new solutions to try. She has helped me through some very difficult times. If I ever leave this area I think I would have to travel to keep seeing Kate.

For some context; my partner and I had been together about 3 years, and were seriously considering…read moremarriage. I was interested in sort of laying out the internals of our relationship to therapist/counselor to see if there were any red flags we should be aware of, and talk through anything that could potentially be problematic for a long term relationship. Most importantly, Dr. Lillie is incredibly competent in her line of work, and can remarkably quickly ask the important questions to guide couples to new perspectives on their relationship. The way that Dr. Lillie interacted with my partner and I was not only transformative in the way we think, but carried care, empathy, and psychological safety. I never felt judged, only heard, but still was compelled to change my thinking about some foundational pillars of being in a relationship. Needless to say, my partner and I are happier than we ever thought possible, and indeed got married :) I owe a lot of this to only a few conversations I had with Dr. Lillie, and to that end, I'm very grateful for the time I've shared with her.

If you are looking for a therapist I would highly highly recommend Sandy. She is amazing.

One Life Counseling Center is an amazing organization that truly supports and helps heal the local…read morecommunity. They offer mental health therapy on a sliding scale- no one should be denied mental health due to financial hardships. One Life also works with the San Carlos School District to provide Therapists at the schools. Seeing the need for better mental health in the local Hispanic community, One Life opened a satellite center (Una Vita) offering "Weekly Mom's Groups" and other programs to help. Also believing that food insecurity adds to mental distress, One Life also offers a weekly food market for their clients. I am both a volunteer and a member of my family is a client. I started volunteering back in March 2021 during the height of the pandemic when One Life was partnering with 2nd Harvest Food Bank to offer free food to families on a monthly basis. Since that time, the food market has morphed into a weekly endeavor with the help not only from 2nd Harvest Food Bank but Trader Joes, Target, Safeway, Noah's Bagels and others. One Life provides much needed fresh produce, meat, dairy, bread and canned goods to over 100 families on a weekly basis. I volunteer every Monday and I look forward to Mondays. I have developed such positive and caring relationships with other volunteers as well as many of the clients who come on Mondays. I see and hear first-hand what a positive impact One Life and the weekly food market has on the clients. I truly believe One Life Counseling Center is making a difference in their local community and beyond!
