Dr. Behr really helped me with the testing needed for my test anxiety accommodation. I would recommend her every time.

LMVerified patient

Dr. Behr was very responsive in finding time to see me, she was amazing in understanding my needs and very helpful.

CLVerified patient

Working with Dr. Behr was genuinely transformative for me. She’s warm, grounded, and incredibly easy to talk to, but also thoughtful in a way that helped me understand patterns I hadn’t noticed before. I always felt supported and never judged. She made the work feel approachable and gave me tools I still use every day. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who is both insightful and truly relatable.

JDVerified patient

Dr. Behr was one of the most influential and important people in my life. She supported me through some extreme unexpected circumstances and taught me strategies the built my confidence and self perception. Also, the overall practice has been so supportive and I have had two awesome group therapy sessions here. I hope to participate in another group in the future. If you’re looking for a therapist for sure reach out!

SMVerified patient

My experience with Melissa Donovan was nothing short of amazing. She was so professional and honest with me which helped me grow so much. She really helped me unpack and address everything I was going through and supported me through it all. She created a non-judgmental and open environment which really helped me be vulnerable to get the most out of our sessions. She taught me how to work through my emotions and I am so grateful for everything I learned during my time seeing her. I would definitely recommend her as a therapist!

Jessica is an amazing provider! She is extremely warm and welcoming even within the setting of difficult conversations. I cannot recommend her enough!

Jessica was a phenomenal facilitator for the trauma group that I participated in. She was so kind and validating of all of our different experiences, while providing us with the space to feel heard and supported.

Jenn has been great! She’s very relatable and been a huge help for me in managing anxiety and postpartum life

NFVerified patient

Professional and listens to the client. Always on time. Wants to help.

ELVerified patient

Very professional and responsive. Highly recommended.

GSVerified patient

Jennifer is wonderful. I started seeing Jennifer when I was going through one of the lowest points in my life. She is supportive, and actively listens. Jen provides great tools to for navigating difficult relationships, setting goals and boundaries, as well as diffusing anxiety. Some of her best attributes are her empathy and honesty. She isn’t afraid to shine light on things you may not being doing in your own self interest — but without judgement. She creates a very comfortable space where you feel like you’re sitting down to chat with a trusted friend rather than a stranger. I would highly recommend her services.

DKVerified patient

Could not continuously look at the screen. Kept looking to the side. Notifications repeatedly went off that she was receiving other messages or emails. While it was clear that she was hearing me, the wholly uncomfortable situation was made worse by how often her face went into what seemed to be judgemental expressions at what I was sharing with her. Roll the dice, sure. Why not?

March 17, 2025Lawrence B.Verified patient

Carli is a great clinician and has enjoyed my collaboration with her. Would highly recommend her.

Carli is an excellent therapist, she listens and gives time to process emotions. Carli provides a fresh prospective to the things I’m struggling with. I look forward to my sessions with her.

JFVerified patient

Carli is a fantastic therapist. She is very patient and understanding while pushing me to learn and grow. I would recommend her to anyone looking for productive, judgment-free therapy!

JSVerified patient

I am so glad I found Carli! She is compassionate, kind, caring, and clearly committed to her patients. It is so great to talk to someone who "gets it" and I am so grateful for her. Anyone looking for a therapist would be lucky to get to work with Carli!

I will forever be grateful and if I do need a therapist again he would definitely be who I am looking for . He always alert and he always worked with my schedule. He always made me feel comfortable to talk about anything . I would highy recommend Dr. Eitan you can’t go wrong with.

KWVerified patient

I’ve had a deeply positive experience working with Nofar. Her trauma-informed approach is evident in the way she creates a space that feels consistently safe, respectful, and attuned. She moves at a pace that honors my comfort while still supporting meaningful growth and my healing. I’ve felt genuinely seen and supported throughout the process, which has made a lasting difference. I’ve been going to therapy for 10+ years and have had a handful of therapists that have made me quit entirely. Nofar has made me a true believer of the importance and what can realistically get achieved through her profession and support. Her care is uncanny.

JJVerified patient

I highly recommend Nofar. She is incredibly friendly and made me feel comfortable from day one. Her guidance was instrumental in helping me work through my challenges, and I am in a much better place now because of our sessions.

DPVerified patient

My session with the provider was amazing. She’s a very attentive listener and she made me really think about everything I mention on a deeper level. I left my session feeling less stressed and started to do a self-awareness check asap. I would recommend this wonderful provider to anyone. 10/10

Amazingg! LOVE HER

June 12, 2026Shelly E.Verified patient

We’ve been seeing Shelby on a weekly basis for a few years. She’s always polite, respectful, kind, and very knowledgeable in psychology and relationships. She makes sessions very easy with her lighthearted attitude and calm demeanor. My skills and repetition in emotional intelligence have improved greatly with her help. I’ve learned so much about myself and my relationship in our sessions. I couldn’t possibly recommend a better therapist to literally anyone.

ABVerified patient

I just love how she’s listen & feels my pain.

June 12, 2025Michelle D.Verified patient

Dr. Zamora is kind, smart, and empathic. She uses evidence-based approaches tailored to the patient. I feel seen and heard, and I recommend her enthusiastically!

MOVerified patient

Ale is a highly trained, qualified and knowledgeable psychologist. Her practice is evidence based backed by care and compassion! She takes great interest in catering to individual client needs - and makes sure they are heard, seen and understood. As a team member, I’ve always learnt so much from her and know that she has so much to offer both as a psychologist as well as a colleague. She is kind, warm, and friendly and I feel so grateful to know her!

I absolutely love John! He is such a great listener and really made me feel heard while I was struggling. He validated my feelings, showed me different perspectives, and gave me tools to use on my own. I would defiantly recommend John.

AJVerified patient

I had a fantastic experience working with John as my therapist for over a year. He approached our sessions with curiosity, openness, and a calm demeanor. I quickly felt like I could trust John and be candid with what I needed from him as a therapist through different seasons of life. I appreciated how often I left our sessions with concrete follow-ups and solutions for things I was working through in various parts of my life. If you’re choosing between John and a different provider, choose John!

ATVerified patient

John was the first therapist I worked with, and I was really anxious about starting therapy. However, from our first consultation call, he embodied kindness and care. He is patient during sessions as you work through difficult emotions. John has a warm, calming presence that makes the space feel safe, comfortable, and trustworthy. He brings lightness and humor when needed, while still holding space for hard emotions and challenging the negative beliefs you may have. He is knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend John as a therapist—you will be blessed by his care and compassion.

KHVerified patient

John has been great to work with. He is kind, caring, and a great sense of humor. He has also done a great job in challenging me to work through difficult things in life. As a black lesbian woman I was unsure I would connect with a white male therapist, however his cultural competency and compassion has far exceeded any nervousness I had.

CHVerified patient

John made me feel comfortable and safe. He made me feel like I wasn’t dealing with everything alone, that I had someone in my corner who truly cared and would help me figure everything out. He is knowledgeable and approachable and funny. I would recommend working with him to anyone; if you’re new to therapy he is a great person to start with, and if you’re returning he will only help further your journey.

EDVerified patient

Chase is helpful and understanding.

BRVerified patient

Issac is a welcoming, compassionate and well skilled therapist. I felt very supported and was able to address difficult matters, take action on them and move forward. Issac's kindness, perspective and gentle encouragement benefitted me greatly.
