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.

The trajectory of my life has significantly improved since commencing treatment with Dr. Maleson. He is a high grade professional, empathetic, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Dr. Maleson to anyone seeking to positively change their lives.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Maleson?
I have known Dr. Maleson as my therapist for almost forty years. During this time he has successfully assisted me through multiple mental health crises and has been instumental in helping me to live what I consider to be a fundamentally happy and productive life. Honestly, I don't think I would be where I am today without him. He is a very compassionate, caring and supportive person and someone that I am proud to say is both my friend and provider.

About Me

care philosophy

I regard empathy, responsiveness, and respect for the patient as core therapeutic values. While I tailor treatment to the individual, as a psychoanalyst I place special importance on gaining insight about unconscious contributors to current difficulties....read more
