We've had a wonderful experience working with Jeanette. She has been seeing our 10-year-old son,…read morewhile also providing parent coaching sessions for me and my wife, and the impact has been incredibly positive for our entire family. One of Jeanette's greatest strengths is her ability to create a safe, supportive space, especially for kids around our son's age. She quickly earned his trust, which is no small feat, and he feels comfortable opening up to her in a way that has truly helped his growth. In addition to her work with our son, Jeanette's parent coaching has been invaluable. She has helped us better understand our child and given us thoughtful, practical guidance on how to approach specific situations. She combines open, insightful discussions with meaningful education, equipping us with tools and perspectives that we continue to use every day. We're very grateful for Jeanette's care, professionalism, and dedication, and would highly recommend her to other families.

Angie Motter is the best therapist I've ever had and I've been going to therapy on and off since I…read morewas 19, and I'm 54. I am going through a contentious divorce and initially saw her with my husband twice. But he didn't want to go anymore and I was seeing my own therapist through my insurance. That therapist behaved unethically at times and I just felt uneasy with her. In fact the three therapists I tried through my insurance were all subpar. Willing and able to pay cash for a good therapist, I asked Angie if I could see her individually and I am SO happy she said yes. She is so gifted. She is enthusiastic, compassionate, an astute listener, very present, and lets me guide the sessions but also asks timely questions and makes insightful observations. She really seems to get me, is so supportive, and I feel like I'm making really good progress with her help. I'm also grateful that she does EMDR. The last session was powerful in helping me let go of a lot of anger and anxiety and have more neutrality about the abuse I experienced from my husband. She has a knack for knowing when it's the right time for EMDR and when I need time to process more immediate concerns. GTSD also provides very good customer service and I couldn't be happier with my experience there.

Only time I have a problem is when they hire a new nurse who thinks they can talk to us any way they want just because we're addicts. First they forgot about me after I checked in and was there for 2 hours. Had to remind everyone that I'm there and need to dose. I go to dose and the new nurse is giving me attitude about my hat. The world won't end if I'm wearing a hat. A hat has no legal or physical ability to make me ineligible for taking methadone. She said she wouldn't do anything or "risk her license over a hat" well it sounds like your DA needs to resign if me wearing a hat twists the DA's panties in a knot. Me wearing a hat literally has no effect on whether I should be able to dose or not. I WILL litigate this if they want to make a deal out of it.

Dr. Silva helped me get through multiple transitions that were happening in my life, while giving me the tools and confidence to believe I was making the right decisions for myself.
