“Dr. Poneh is a phenomenal provider! She is excellent at meeting clients where they are and at leveraging a range of therapeutic approaches to best get them to where they're going. My partner and I see Dr. Poneh for couples therapy and she has been instrumental in us learning to more effectively navigate our relationship. She does a great job at hearing both of us, helping us both to clarify what we need to work on something, and has helped us find so many solutions together for sustaining our relationship in a healthy way. I especially appreciate her directness and say-it-how-it-is attitude; I've had issues with other providers sugarcoating and not giving me concrete directions to work with. Dr. Poneh is excellent at going steps beyond what other providers have done for me and helping me to feel like I'm truly breaking barriers I've been stuck behind.”

“Poneh is incredible. She's very to the point, but in a kind, constructive way. She's seen me through some wild times in my life over the last couple of years, but always makes it known to me that she's proud of my progress and sees the change happening. I highly recommend her and this practice!”

I work with telehealth instead of in person. This works for me. She is helping me through a ton of trauma.

I am so grateful to have found Dr. Sol. She is so smart, thoughtful, caring, and funny (when appropriate!). She has helped me achieve goals and set new ones. Since working with her my mental health has improved so much. She is genuine and personable. She has a flexible approach and has met me where I am in the treatment process as it progresses.

Dr. Poneh Kazemsoltani is an incredible therapist. She creates a space that feels safe, warm, and supportive, while also challenging me to do the work that leads to real progress.

I am so grateful to have found Poneh. She is kind, empathetic, and deeply supportive, while also being direct in a way that keeps me grounded and accountable. She has helped me shift my focus to self-care and learning to prioritize my own well-being, which has made such a difference in my life.
What stands out most is Poneh’s broad perspective and the many tools she brings into our sessions—she always seems to have just the right approach that resonates with me. I appreciate her holistic way of looking at my life, not just the symptoms or stress of the moment, but the bigger picture of who I want to become.
I’ve made real progress under Poneh’s care. I leave sessions feeling heard, supported, empowered, and challenged. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Dr Kazemsoltani has helped me immensely in breaking through and overcoming depressive patterns of thought. She's very good at talking through compassionate but frank analyses of my thought patterns and helping me find a more neutral and realistic interpretation rather than the more negative things my brain might immediately jump to.
