“Initially made an appointment online. Staff quickly realized I needed a different provider, called me back and rescheduled in a very timely & friendly manner. On telehealth appointment Tara Scott was a running behind but made sure to communicate. I have only had one appointment so far but so far happy with my care. I will be recommended LifeStance to family & friends. (I reached out to a few places and LifeStance definitely stood out).”

“Dr. Scott was very personable and seemed dedicated to helping me as a patient, to understand and seek treatment for my mental health. She created an environment where I felt comfortable being honest and open about my issues without judgment. Highly recommend!”
