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.

Keep it Real with Me
I have been seeing Michelle for over 2 years, and I would be lost without her. Even when a crisis hits and I need to get a hold of her, she is always there. It is nice to know someone has your back. I havena strong personality and Michelle does't cower away from that. I do not trust people easily and she was patient with me and put up with my insecurities at first in order for us to be able to finally to make a true connection. She is very easy to talk to and doesn't make you feel like their is a society difference between you. Seems like she is from the neighborhood most days. We are able to laugh and even cry togehter. Which lets you know your therapist truly cares and takes a interest in your life. She always ask about my family. To make sure all is well on the home front. She has helped me through my daughter being violently attaacked, death of my son and living with chronic pain. I would be a mess without her. I recomment Michelle to anyone whi needs a therapist.
