Kateri is the best. Makes you feel comfortable and prioritizes your healing above all else.
MLVerified patient
she be a bestie best over all the rest
LGVerified patient
Kateri invites you to be whoever you are, and meets you there.
She has helped me navigate extremely difficult parts of my life with gentleness and quiet clarity. She helped me be able to see and articulate distortions in how I’d approached my life, and worked with me to help me see other possibilities. And change my habits to do better.
All in all a great experience!
EYVerified patient
Kateri is an excellent therapist. I felt so seen and heard by her. Her creativity allowed me to process my thoughts and behaviours in a way I have not experienced. I am so grateful to have worked with her. Highly recommend.

Dr Berasi is a highly skilled professional that helped place me with an excellent therapist. Both herself and her team are easy to work with and exceptional at their jobs. I can’t recommend this practice highly enough.
FMVerified patient
I worked with Dr. Kateri Baresi in both individual and group settings. While working with Dr. Baresi, I navigated many difficult obstacles and personal challenges, allowing for more ease, growth, and connection in my life. The care for clients is high, and I felt that my experiences and feelings were honored and understood throughout our time together. I recommend Dr. Baresi for anyone considering therapy!
ARVerified patient
My partner & I loved working with Dr. Berasi. She truly created a space of safety & comfort for us, while still providing critique & structure where needed. She guided us through difficult emotional work with grace, tact, & invaluable insight. I have seen many therapists, and consider it one of the most important skills to be able to meet your clients exactly where they need you in terms of conversation, support, and even humor - Dr. Berasi is outstanding at this. Only stopped seeing her because we moved across the country, and we will miss working with her greatly.
RGVerified patient
I highly recommend Kateri to anyone looking for a new therapist. Kateri is warm, grounded, compassionate, and affirming. She is approachable and an attentive listener. I felt connected to her immediately and wouldn't hesitate to work with her again.

Ai was a wonderful therapist. What I appreciated most about her was her calming presence—she brings a very grounded, slow energy to her sessions and often pauses to make space for each thing said. Becaues I'm someone who clams up easily, this made it easy to talk about things that were on my mind. I also enjoyed doing Ai's short illustration exercises, because they offered a way into unpacking complicated emotions. Overall, I feel that our sessions allowed me to better understand the patterns I bring to my relationships and to identify where I can change in order to break those patterns.
JWVerified patient
Ai was incredibly helpful with my processing of the passing of my mom, as well as improving my relationship with my wife and overall just creating a very comfortable space for me to learn about myself. Enjoyed all my sessions even when talking about difficult things. Only reason I had to leave was sadly due to a change in my insurance.
JHVerified patient
Ai is very patient.
I always looking forward to talking to her. Her approach in blending art into the session is just about right for me. If you are looking for a compassionate, caring yet professional therapist, I would recommend her !
GSVerified patient
She is highly professional and attentive, making me feel truly heard and understood. She takes the time to listen carefully to my concerns, helping me not only to identify my problems but also to gain a deeper understanding of them. In addition, she provides a variety of effective coping strategies tailored to my needs, allowing me to practice and develop skills that can support my personal growth. Her approach is both compassionate and insightful, making me feel supported throughout the process. I am definitely looking forward to our next session with great anticipation.

Logan is a warm, compassionate, and insightful therapist. He cultivates a safe, non-judgemental space where people can explore vulnerable parts of themselves and feel truly heard. He is an excellent therapist, and I highly recommend!
HGVerified patient
From day one, I felt safe, heard, and understood. He has a deep understanding of cultural backgrounds and how that shapes peoples experiences, which made a huge difference for me. I never had to over explain, he just gets me.
On top of that, his experience really shows. Every session feels purposeful, and they offer insights and tools that actually help in real life. They also have this incredible ability to pick up on emotions I haven’t even put into words yet, which makes our conversations feel so meaningful.
If you’re looking for a therapist who is not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cares, I can’t recommend Logan enough!
GRVerified patient
Logan is a compassionate and dedicated therapist. His approach is gentle while simultaneously pushing clients to take steps towards accomplishing their goals. Would highly recommend!
CLVerified patient
Working with Logan Meeker has been truly life-changing. When I first came to him, I was struggling with depression, anxiety, and the emotional toll of a breakup. Logan created a safe and compassionate space where I felt heard and understood. His insightful approach helped me manage my anxiety, work through my depression, and rebuild my self-confidence.
Logan helped me to gain insight into, and ultimately change, patterns that have been ruling my life for years. I feel more in control of my emotions and much more confident in myself. I’m incredibly grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist who genuinely cares and helps you heal.

Nathaniel is a compassionate and caring therapist whose ability to create an environment in which I feel comfortable opening up and being vulnerable has helped me grow a set of tools that I can use to tackle challenges and insecurities across many aspects of my life. I particularly appreciate his ability to understand how my queer identity shapes some of the issues I've brought to our time together. I feel like he really gets me. I owe a lot of my personal growth to Nathaniel's thoughtful guidance--would absolutely recommend.
DSVerified patient
Nathaniel was such a good therapist ?? He made me feel welcome and like I could show up as myself and helped me see some things about myself and my relationships that have been so helpful.

RLVerified patient
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Nathaniel. From the very first session, he created a warm, nonjudgmental space where I felt safe to open up. He listens with compassion, offers thoughtful insights, and provides practical tools that have truly helped me.

SWVerified patient
Avni is an incredibly caring and reliable art therapist. She is both professional and approachable in her manner of communication. I have been able to open up and work through many of my issues that I previously could not with other therapists. She always supplements sessions with relevant art projects and I would recommend her to anyone!

Avni has all the qualities I look for in a therapist. When I’m speaking with her I can sense how present she is and the care she takes in her listening and her responses. She’s deeply serious but has a sense of humor when the moment calls for it, making it easy to feel relaxed and safe with her. She operates with empathy, intellect, and professionalism, and I cannot recommend her more highly!

Avni treats her clients with compassion, respect, and as the experts in their own lives, while guiding them toward greater self-understanding. She does a great job incorporating artmaking into sessions in a natural, low-pressure way that focuses on process over product and self-discovery.
