Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Top notch
We were recommended to Dr Hunter by several people. Dr Hunter listened to our concerns about our daughter. She helped our child when other treatments failed. She is easy to speak with and is accessible during difficult times. Thankful.

Dr. Hunter has extensive training in DBT, DBT-PE, and EMDR. She is incredibly empathic and nonjudgmental in her approach. I would highly recommend Dr Hunter.

Finally found a provider who utilizes DBT in trauma work. Dr. Hunter has been so kind and compassionate with our child! Couldn’t be happier with our child’s progress.

Nasty person, in her DBT groups she’ll repeat the same training over and over as she adds new people in. Has favorites. Others only stay in for a few months, others have been in there years.

Dr. Hunter is a skilled and compassionate therapist. She is an expert in the DBT field and has a wonderful way of explaining complex concepts and strategies in an easy-to-understand (and use manner). She has a knack for helping others view their situations in a non judgmental and helpful manner. She is passionate about her work and helping people reach their goals. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Hunter lacks understanding in empathy and commitment. She was unprofessional when it came to scheduling appointments and letting her own emotions get in the way when teaching me coping skills. She not only misdiagnosed me, but failed to keep in communication with me when times were difficult. She only communicates when a patient schedules "assessment" sessions in dire need of care, and always pushes people towards group therapy designed for BPD clients when it may not be beneficial to your care.

Very disappointing interaction. Dr. Hunter would only communicate with me with I scheduled an “assessment” session, which I did not ask for. She ignored my email request to schedule a phone conversation to learn more about her group sessions. I can only imagine the lack of understanding she demonstates with her clients.
