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.

Changed/saved my life
Dr. Hatherill is the wisest person I’ve ever met. I was heading down a path of self destruction until I began counseling sessions with him. I have chosen to continue counseling sessions with him for the past 18 years because of how much better and happier my life is since I began working with him. Furthermore, he truly cares about his patients and is like a father to me. I highly recommend him.

CHANGED MY LIFE, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
I cannot say enough great things about Dr.Hatherill. He has an incredible ability to help you become self aware and rewire toxic thinking patterns. He has helped me identify triggers, behaviors, unhealthy patterns and internal dialogue that has made me feel stuck and miserable for YEARS. He has given me tools and resources to continue helping me live the best quality of life that I can, and is SO KNOWLEDGEABLE. I always leave our sessions feeling like I learn so much about myself and about the relationships in my life. Prior to starting our sessions I was lost, miserable, and constantly anxious and didn’t even know who I was anymore. I was a mess. .He is so attentive and observant and says it like it is which I LOVE. I’ve met with other therapists before who seem to just listen to me “vent” or give me cookie cutter responses. But not here! He is so committed to his clients and his approach, knowledge and incredible ability to personalize treatment based on your goals is life changing.
