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.

Very thankful patient
Donna is kind, compassionate and skilled. She is by far the most intuitive and insightful therapist I’ve ever had. And I have tried many. Donna is exceptionally intelligent. She very adroit at adapting her style of therapy to your needs. She can combine several different types of therapy into a tailored approach that perfectly meets your needs. She listens. She remembers. She understands. The thing that made me really comfortable is the solution orientation. This wasn’t typical “talk therapy “. It was goal driven. Listening to what I said, Donna helped me set goals for my counseling. When I met one goal, we set another. I made so much progress. My depression, anxiety and self sabotage are no longer mysterious. Now I understand and have strategies for managing my behaviors by having learned self compassion, self direction and how to manage my thinking. The bad news is that Donna is planning to retire soon. I hope she will continue her practice with virtual appointments.

I have needed counseling for a long time but was too anxious to go. Donna made me feel so comfortable and not at all judged. She is direct, compassionate and gives a lot of feedback. She also gives homework for me to work on between sessions. I felt better after the first session. For the first time in years I experienced hopefulness. I am so glad I made the decision to see Donna. She has helped me so much .

My husband I have been to three counselors. Nothing seemed to help us solve our problems. A friend recommended Donna. I will be forever grateful. I truly believe she saved our marriage.

I have seen so many counselors over the years. She is the most insightful, genuine and helpful that I have ever found. I actually feel in charge of my life for the first time ever. She has empowered me to be comfortable being me. I cannot thank her enough.

I was really nervous about seeing a therapist but she made me feel at ease. She talks with you, not at you. Helps you work out a plan to achieve the results and goals you are looking for.
