I need to know why I was charged so much and my insurance was taken. I did not approve these charges

The appointment never happened. No one called me to talk to me. No staff no doctor.

Super knowledgeable and really good at breaking things down in a way that actually makes sense. He’s direct but respectful, and you can tell he knows his clinical stuff. I felt understood and actually walked out with a plan instead of just venting. Highly recommend!

Dr. Heafy is extraordinary. He is kind and brilliant. I felt so safe talking in his office, and I didn’t even cry when I spoke about topics that have previously made me get choked up. I can’t recommend him enough. He inspires me with how knowledgeable and kind he is. He gave me a lot of strength to move forward on an issue I was having. He is the best doctor in this field in the entire Bay Area. Thank you so so much, Dr. Heafy!

Dr. Heafy’s office was absolutely adorable, and he was also one of the best listeners I’ve ever spoken too. I’m new to seeking out mental health treatment and I couldn’t imagine finding a better provider for my situation.

One of the most intuitive therapists I’ve worked with. I felt Rachel really understood my attachment stuff on a deep level.

NPVerified patient

Highly recommend and fit me in her schedule right away!

MFVerified patient

Rachel's use of compassion-focused techniques really stands out—they create a space where you feel understood rather than judged. What impressed me most is how they blend different approaches seamlessly, tailoring each session to what actually works in the moment. On top of that, their scheduling flexibility made it easy to stay consistent with therapy. It’s clear their ultimate goal is helping people build a better quality of life, not just get through sessions.

RHVerified patient

Honestly I didn’t even want to start therapy, I’m too busy and travel a lot for work. But Rachel just got it right away. She didn’t make me feel weird about not knowing what to say. She’s direct, points out patterns I totally miss, and actually works with my schedule when I’m out of town. I don’t have to pretend I’ve got it all handled. It’s been way more helpful than I expected.

CSVerified patient

This clinician was great. She's to the point, and helped me face some fears I've been avoiding talking about for a long time. In just a few months I feel I can handle my work and relationships better, and am finally dating again. I felt she really understood my social anxiety. Thank you Rachel!

SWVerified patient

I’ve worked with other therapists, but Rachel’s approach was the first one that really worked for me. I’d always tried to address my anxiety from a cognitive perspective, and Rachel’s somatic psychology approach changed both my understanding of my symptoms and my ability to manage them. Highly recommend!

EKVerified patient

Rachel is not like any therapist I’ve had before and she really does Somatic therapy (unlike other providers who I’ve been to). She showed me how to find manageability in my mood swings. This has shifted my self concept, and built my strength from the inside out. Thank you Rachel, I will always be grateful!

EHVerified patient

Rachel Budnick was my first-ever therapist and will always be the best! When I first met her she was very welcoming and understanding during and outside sessions.

Such a calming presence. I came in with a lot of anxiety and grief and never once felt judged or rushed. They create a space where you can just be real, and it genuinely made it easier to open up. Really grateful for their support.

Channah creates a deeply affirming and thoughtful therapeutic space grounded in strong relational principles. She has a unique ability to meet clients where they are, whether they are youth, adults, or parents seeking a better understanding of gender identity, gender theory, or gender transition. Her work is both compassionate and informed, helping clients feel seen while also encouraging meaningful growth. She integrates multiple therapeutic approaches seamlessly and is very flexible with scheduling. Her commitment to improving her clients’ quality of life is clear in the care and intention she brings to every session.

I felt safe with them right away. They’re affirming without being performative and really understand the nuance of gender work. I’ve never had a therapist approach things with this much respect and clarity. Truly a supportive therapist.
