“The private practice belongs to this provider who conducted my initial consultation, which was overall very positive. I felt that he was thorough and really listened to my needs. Due to scheduling, I was assigned to a different clinician he thought would be a good fit. I was able to meet with this clinician the same day and I am very satisfied. I’ve worked as an LMSW in private practice in the past therefore I know what to expect- I completed several consultations with other practices recently and I would recommend this group 100%. ”
