“Easily the best experience I’ve ever had with a psychiatrist which is why I’ve been a patient for over a decade. They actually take the time do the proper tests and screenings to give you an accurate diagnosis and they were willing to work with me when I lost access to my health insurance. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in need of psychiatric services”

Dr. Leighton is a delight to talk to. It is Very easy to open up to her. She seems to understand me.
I have been going here since 2014 and absolutely love them!
Easily the best experience I’ve ever had with a psychiatrist which is why I’ve been a patient for over a decade. They actually take the time do the proper tests and screenings to give you an accurate diagnosis and they were willing to work with me when I lost access to my health insurance. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in need of psychiatric services
Great place to get the help I need
Repeatedly year after year , hats off to Linzi Leighton ! She has always been inquisitive and give you her time and attention! Thank you and we appreciate you and we need many more of health care providers like her in this industry!!
I've been going to Dr. White's office of LifeStance Health for many years now. The office staff are so lovely, they're so welcoming and helpful. I see Linzi Leighton, she does exceptionally well with my diagnosis and treatment plan. She's very personable and very caring. She really listens and gets to the root of the problem. Great advice on breathing techniques really help. I've made great improvements (aside from going thru anticipatory grief with a family member). Very responsive to my questions or concerns I may have, thru they're messaging system. She also does very well with my autistic adult son. Rapid responses on medication refills. I would definitely recommend Dr. White's office of LifeStance Health off I-10 & Bingle.
I have been going to this place Since 2013. Lindsay and Dr White are extraordinarily professional and caring deeply about what’s going on with your mental health. Not a place that moves us through like cattle and collect our co-pay like your Every day doctors do. Here you are a person, a name, and illness, not patient number XYZ. Lindzi Is more than A doctor but a true true person that cares for my families well-being, and works tirelessly to get us what we need. I recommend them wholeheartedly. And I never recommend people for anything. You cannot go wrong. Going to see these folks. Good luck to you with your health well-being.
I have been seeing Linzi for 12 years and have been going to LIFESTANCE health for almost 10 years and I do not recommend any other psychiatrist. The staff is amazing, the nurse practitioners are amazing, Dr. White is also amazing. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my mental health other than lifestance health. They’re quick, but not rushy, I never feel like I’m getting in and out. They take the time to express all my concerns and issues and they’re always there when I need them via phone call or email in between appointments. If I could give 10 stars I would.
Linzi Leighton is absolutely amazing. Dr. White is as well. I have seen Lindsey regularly for about 6 years now, every time greeted with a smile on her face, and she is always listening to my concerns and genuinely cares how myself and family are doing. I moved cities and still requested to continue seeing her virtually because my experience is always 5 star!
