My husband and I were having conflicts and started seeing Haley.we may have been a little too intense for her and during our 2nd session, it didn't seem like she could handle us.she recommended a colleague who may be better qualified and explained a more intensive therapy plan better suited for us.my husband and I were agreeable and were looking forward to said plan.however, Haley never got back to us or connected us to her colleague.we are now seeing a great therapist who has not ghosted us and says Haley is in the wrong line of work.we have to agree!
thanks for nothing

I booked an appointment through a work benefit called Lyra with Victoria Velazquez. Waited for 30 minutes and she was a no-show even though I had emails confirming our appointment. Receptionists were extremely unprofessional and only told me she wasn't there after I asked them what was going on after sitting around for 30 minutes. They also had no answer as to why this happened. As someone looking for help with my mental health for the first time, this was a very disappointing and challenging experience. Total waste of time. Avoid!

Therapist is great! I feel that I’m listened to and given the importance in my treatment that I was seeking.

Dr. Nakajima is by far the best therapist I’ve ever worked with. She is the clam kind inner voice I want to create for myself and works with me at my pace.

Truly wonderful practice. Dr Alison Gurley is amazing and so is Dr Erika Updegrove. Really great practice that is very intersectional and very knowledgeable of LGBT issues. Highly recommend!

I’d say 3-4 months in that my partner and I are having a very positive and effective experience. Every topic we cover is treated with care and I’ve been seeing a lot of positive change in my life and my relationship when we implement what we learn from these sessions.

Accommodating, kind, and professional staff. Dr. Leon is an amazing therapist! This was the first time I received therapy and felt anxious about opening up to someone. However, Dr. Leon made me feel very comfortable and at ease. Apart from being a dedicated Doctor who gives professional advice, he also feels like a friend to me. I never feel judged and enjoy every session. Not only has he encouraged me to be more acquainted with my feelings, but he’s also helped me learn so much about myself and the people around me. He often gives fun assignments which end up being great lessons that benefit my personal growth. Dr. Leon is someone who truly cares about the improvement of his patient's overall health. I am so grateful to have chosen him as my therapist and look forward to our upcoming sessions! Highly recommend!
