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 was with a different therapist for years who decided to retire. I was devastated when I heard this news and was convinced I’d never find a suitable replacement, I had no reason to worry at all. Dr. Leavit is spectacular therapist and a great human. She really helped me through a tough time & I greatly appreciate it.

Dr. Leavitt is wonderful! We have been seeing her 'on and off' for the past few years regarding our pre-teenage son. She has been welcoming, professional and super helpful to not only him, but also to my husband and me. Each time we show up with our lives turned upside down, she manages to get us back upright. We are so grateful to have found her.

Dr. Leavitt is amazing! I cannot tell you what a difference she made in my life. Before seeing her, I had spent more than a decade with other providers making no progress and felt like I was barely treading water. She not only provided valuable therapy, but she was able to spot a misdiagnosis that was holding me back. It is rare to find a physician who is gifted in both medical management and therapy, and I will forever feel blessed for having found her and thankful for all she has done for me. I cannot recommend her enough.

Dr. Carolyn Leavitt is arguably among the worst psychiatrists/therapists in the Miami-Dade county area. She lacks the basic necessary skills to be successful in the mental health industry. She has no compassion or empathy. Do NOT let her fool you. She will pretend to be caring and empathetic at first, but it’s all for the money. Don’t waste your money listening to her talk about her failed marriage and her own personal problems. She needs to get her act together before seeing patients. If your problem is at all going to cost her any effort she will decide it’s to complex for her to deal with, after already taking tens of thousands of dollars from you. She will also forget even the most basic details that you tell her because she’s too busy pretending to care. Stay away from this bogus “doctor.”

Dr. Leavitt is absolutely one of the Best in the field. I was a “non-believer” in therapy at first, but I will tell you, it was one of the best investments I have ever made, but only because of this amazing professional.
