I am so happy that I found Dr. Xu through my insurance network. I brought my son for ADHD assessment. Dr. Xu is warm, patient, and professional. She gave a lot of useful advice for both at home and at school. I have seen a big improvement in my son's behavior after only a few sessions. I also appreciate that I can get fast response via text with the clinic's admin. Highly recommended.

I initially took my teenage daughter to see Dr. Xu. My daughter was avoiding school and has anxiety and depression. Dr. Xu has been a huge help in her journey to recovery. I myself started to get treatment from Dr. Xu as well. She is attentive, compassionate, and professional. We never felt rushed.
We are very happy that she is in-network provider so our visits are covered by insurance.
