A year ago, I finally told my doctor that I'd been experiencing at least mild depression and anger…read moremanagement issues for years. My father and grandfather tended toward depression, and I assumed that my negative thoughts and angry reactions were just the way my mind worked. The doctor suggested that I might benefit from counselling, specifically Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Fortunately, Diane Doll at Hinsdale Professional Associates was available to help me. Working with Diane over the last year or so, I have come to understand that I had it backwards: my thoughts and reactions were not the product of an inborn and unchangeable negative mindset. Rather, my negative way of reacting to people and the world largely created the negative mindset. Under Diane's guidance, I'm making good progress in how I approach and react to people and events. I feel happier, less angry and more at ease with myself and others. Diane is obviously knowledgeable and experienced in the science of psychology, and was able to suggest great resources that I found helpful. Her approach is supportive, encouraging and compassionate. Our sessions are conversations in which she takes the role of a coach or really good friend who doesn't tell me what to do or think, but rather helps me to discover a path consistent with the person I want to be. If you're reading this, you may be looking for help to make changes in your life and hoping that change is possible. If you are, and if you get a chance to work with Diane, you should do it.

BE VERY WARY if you are a high-conflict couple; in my experience (60 sessions!) with the head…read morepsychologist of the Hinsdale clinic, there was a lack of assessment and understanding of covert emotional abuse and a lack of holding accountable the power and control dynamic at play...which would have been the one intervention that could have saved my marriage. Unfortunately, an "everything is 50% your fault" mentality is very strong and the Christian bias of valuing marriage over an individual's wellbeing is likely at play. I eventually quit therapy and quit my marriage and am doing much better, though the grief of the trauma from my marriage therapy is still with me. I recommend Relational Life Therapy - they will take sides and defend victims. My individual therapist is also here- and she is wonderful. IFS and EMDR has really provided breakthrough and emotional freedom from deep-seated early childhood traumas.

After his retirement, my experience changed significantly. I was assigned a new practitioner, but after she left the practice, I was never informed who would be managing my care. Communication became inconsistent, and continuity of care suffered. The most concerning part of my experience was being unable to obtain my prescribed medication on time during this transition. For a mental health practice, clear communication and continuity of care are essential. Unfortunately, my experience did not meet those expectations, which is why I can no longer recommend this practice.

I'm so happy with my experience and hope to be able to continue seeing her as my therapist sometime soon.

This felt more like I was a judge on shark tank than it did a discussion about helping our child…read more The only topics I've heard about is that they're "cash only" and that they have a "fellowship" so any other provider will pale in comparison. When I explained the $5.5k evaluation fee is unaffordable and I'd look for providers that take insurance they had the gaul to tell me how they too had a hard time with such expenses for their own children and it was worth it. Guess they forgot that they mentioned living in Hinsdale for over two decades. A decidedly NOT lower income neighborhood. The 5 page evaluation form consisted of about half a page on what the evaluation entails, 1.5 pages on billing, 2.5 pretty much saying how "awesome" they are, and a half page about Danielle (who switched from animal medicine to pediatrics!?).

They only communicate vial email, and they don't have enough staff to handle patients. They brag as if being this small is a good thing.. in reality, it caused much confusion for my family and the school district that helped set up our eval. Find another provider for this service. During the last month and a half, their communication has been spotty at best. Then they cancel because of this. She doesn't care about patients. They canceled because they cannot handle any criticism and left us a month and a half behind when it comes to getting help with no concern for my child.

It is a painless, and incredibly effective tool that brings energy to those areas of your brain that need more energy, without nasty side effects. NOTE: It is NOT anything like Electrical Convulsive Therapy (ECT), commonly referred to as "shock therapy". If you need relief from depression, TMS is an amazing alternative! And, if you're going to treat your depression with TMS, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better, more professional, kind and compassionate provider than the team at Mindful TMS. At the heart of the team is TMS technician, Ann Marie. She is incredible! Ann Marie genuinely cares for her patients, willingly and adeptly answers questions, and ensures your comfort during the TMS procedure. I strongly recommend TMS for ANYONE whose "usual" treatments for depression aren't working anymore...and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mindful TMS!
