I leave my appointments feeling more confident, and I always feel like she actually cares about me and my life. She has helped me to become my own person. To me that's important, that she aided me in being me and didn't tell me what to do. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and fam. P.s. Ms Boldrey dresses very nice, and other reviews taking low blows about her appearance really speaks to that reviewer's pettiness.

I also really enjoy the office staff. I have so much faith in the practice that I brought my kid in and he has seen Dr. AZ and Dr. Blount. They have been very careful with him which I appreciate. I wouldn't want to take him anywhere else. I would recommend working with this practice to anyone because it's awesome. Thanks Dr Az, Dr Blount, and Crisel.

She had been my counselor for many…read moresessions and used those sessions against me to breach confidentiality based off her own belief system and got my life in a great deal of a mess for no reason besides her own. I would not trust her with any "real" information, which is what you express in therapy. Besides this, she did nothing through our sessions besides push back needed treatment and keep charging. She dropped me as a client once she breached confidentiality during one of the hardest times in my life, leaving me with no therapist and nowhere to turn to. I had left a previous counselor I was able to get treatment from for free to see Bernadette and I am nothing but completely dissatisfied and disgusted by the way she conducts her services. Would give 0 stars if I could.

I am writing to explain my couple therapy experience with Dr.Cristina. During the session and in…read morereflection, I felt that Dr. Cristina took improper course of action and had no desired in understanding of who I am. I, a Black, queer and gender non-conforming person was not considered or regarded. Resulting in her making very harmful and violent assumptions about my character. Her questioning was demonizing and as I, am in a relationship with a white, trans person her comments were racially bias of which can create life threatening consequences for me as a Black person. Her assumptions in calling our relationship "unsafe" and style of questioning futher supported her bias.  Throughout the session she misquoted me numerous times, claiming that I did not love partner. She even went so far to state that I did not want to be with my partner, well in fact I attended the session to assure that we could maintain an relationship.  She also, feed my partner's words stating that "she didnt love me" and that what she felt for me "wasn't love". Not to mention her foul language used was Inappropriate and their dogs are also very annoying and nippy. Which was a huge distraction during the session. I looked forward to meeting Dr. Cristina as her therapy style was very intriguing. However, if you are in need of a you are a person of color beware as she is not aware of her racial bias. However she is not a good mediator and immediator and if you are a person a color beware of the racial bias in which you may experience as I did. It. I left that appointment in tears and luckily was Lee was able to be comforted by my partner who was also also clearly able to see her bias herbias throughout the session. Luckily me and my partner are stronger than her assumptions! Couples beware, POC, Polyamory couple's beware beware!!!

Therapist practice is under supervision. I can offer Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, traditional talk therapy, brief-solution focused therapy, animal assisted therapy, and EMDR.

Andres the acupuncturist is literally a true healer (and might even be a little psychic) and is such a calming presence! Mia the esthetician has HEALED my beautiful skin with her facials. When I used to go without makeup people would be like "ArE YoU OKaY!? you LoOk So TiREd, WhY iS yOuR FacE ReD?" but since getting microneedling and integrative facials I haven't been wearing any makeup (just sunscreen!) and feel confident and my skin has been so happy! Ericka the functional nutritionist (she does lots of other things too) helped me reverse my non alcoholic fatty liver disease and was so validating and supportive of the progress I made. Ryan (the personal trainer) is a literal ray of sunshine and is a blast to work out with! He really helped me get motivated on my post partum fitness journey! Also all of their therapists are phenomal people who truly care about their clients. Soul space is a unique level of service that you'd normally only find in some boujie rehab for celebrities (I would know, I've been to a few ) and we are so lucky to have this amazing gem in Tucson! 10/10 recommend!!!

I waited until about 2:15 and no one showed up or called me back. It's been 24 hours and still no one has called me or emailed me. This is the most unprofessional and awful thing a therapist/counselor could do, especially to a person who is seeking help. Absolutely unacceptable.
