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.

Disappointing
Found my experience with Shana disappointing overall. Based on her website she seemed to claim experience for specific challenges that when actually in therapy she didn’t have much solutions to offer for said challenges. Her answer for everything was to just do EMDR but our EMDR, while helpful to some degree, really didn’t help with some things. Through the course of our time together I gathered she actually wasn’t that well educated and just kind of has her go-to fix-all solution where she has some experience and that’s, again, EMDR. She seemed to really struggle with giving feedback, leaving me wondering at times why I was even going. She was nice, I just think she lacks the knowledge and experience to efficiently help people with day-to-day functioning and, again, just defaults to EMDR to fix everything. I will add there were a few times I was either intentionally, or unintentionally, gaslit by being told I was the one who just wanted to do EMDR which was completely false.
What went well
  • I felt respected
  • Appointment scheduling
  • Staff friendliness
  • Appointment wasn't rushed
  • Wait times
What could be improved
  • Didn't listen or answer questions
  • Didn't explain conditions well
  • Didn't trust the provider's decisions
