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.

I have been seeing Steve once a week for more than 2 years, beginning with grief counseling. I feel respected and listened to. I share my weekly notes with him, and it helps me to identify problems and for him to address them. He encourages me to find solutions to problems, and to go forward. He is patient, a good listener, and I finish each session more relaxed and ready to face the upcoming week.

Lied to me
I specifically went to him because he told me he could structure therapy to include a family member by phone or video. Many weeks into sessions, he repeatedly kept putting me off and making excuses about including this person. I was looking for help to improve this relationship, but his focus seemed to be 'just get over it.' Also, during sessions he would look out the window and not pay attention to me.

Wonderful
I have been seeing Steve for about a year now. Before our visits I had unmanageable anxiety and panic attacks. Steve has helped me learn to manage it. He has really opened my eyes to positive thinking and ways to embrace life. I have a whole new outlook and I am finding myself again. I am forever grateful for him. I recommend anyone looking for someone who is down to earth and relatable to reach out to him.

He seemed to have a hard time understanding me and at times seemed like he wasn’t paying attention. Building is dirty. Receptionist is rude and not efficient at all. Don’t waste your time
