I am so grateful to have found Wellman Psychology & Associates. I just happened to be searching for…read morea new therapist online through ZocDoc, and decided to give them a try. My experience has been unlike any other in all my years in therapy. If you're looking, give them a call immediately.
I booked an appointment with a therapist online through ZocDoc, and received a confirmation email from them within minutes. They made it extremely easy to get everything in order, and I was able to secure an appointment for the following week. After going on their actual website to further research the therapist I had booked with on ZocDoc, I ended up seeing a therapist on their website that was not on ZocDoc, but I thought could be a better fit for me. I emailed them asking to book with that therapist, and they replied immediately and switched it, no questions asked. Also, the admin is always quick to answer questions if you email them, which is great!
I have been seeing Ryan Coventry for three months now for therapy, and it has been an incredible experience thus far. I have seen many therapists over the last 15 years, mainly for my anxiety disorder, and he is in a league of his own. He creates a safe space in therapy to be able to discuss any issue, no matter how difficult. I've never felt this comfortable sharing with a previous therapist. You can tell he listens, and that he is invested in his clients. Maybe most importantly, he challenges you, and provides valuable feedback. He has gotten me to look at things in new ways, and tackle things I didn't realize I could. I feel like almost every week there is a 'breakthrough.' He is certainly one of the best in the business, and I am thrilled to have him as my therapist.
I also have gotten to become a patient of Dr. Andrew Richardson as well through Wellman. I was looking for someone new to take over my anxiety medications, and Wellman happened to have Dr. Richardson on staff for this very purpose. I was floored immediately on my first visit with his obvious vast knowledge of medications, and psychological disorders. After listening to my medical history, all the medications I've tried in the past, and what I was currently taking, he said he had a recommendation for a new medication he thought would help. He suggested before he prescribed it though to take a DNA type test that would tell him what kinds of medications my body processes best, so we know which drugs I might respond to best. I had never heard of it before, but I was very excited because these kinds of medications can be trial and error. I booked an appointment to see him the following week when he had the test results back, and it turned out the test showed I should react positively to the medication he had in mind. For the first time ever, I have an anxiety medication that I can feel working, and I've tried many. I could not be more thrilled to have Dr. Richardson as well on my care team.
So, if you are looking for mental health services, please call Wellman up right away. You will thank me later. I couldn't be more grateful to have found them.
