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 highly recommend him. Very knowledgeable.

Dr Pera always makes me feel at ease. He answered all my questions. He has been my therapist, working with me to achieve my goals of better mental health, better relationships with the important people in my life and helping me cope with trauma in my past. Hes a very intelligent doctor and I would highly recommend him to my family and friends. He has been there for me in times of crisis and helps me to function at my best capacity. If you call him he gets back to you quickly. During my last visit he gave me great insight regarding my issues as he always does. My situation is a very complex case and I credit him with saving my life.

Oh my goodness, Dr. Pera is the absolute best psychologist. I feel comfortable talking to him about anything, which is rare for me. He doesn’t let me wallow or run off with my thoughts, and when I talk things out with him, I always feel much better. Something I also appreciate is that he’s a fun person to talk to. I’ve had sessions that could be stilted or feel more like an interview and this has never even remotely been the case with him.It makes me much more invested & I actually look forward to my appointments which hasn’t happened before. He genuinely pays attention and listens and works to come up with solutions and options. It’s obvious that he chose this profession because he truly cares about mental health and helping others lead fulfilling lives. He is objective and doesn’t make me feel silly. The difference in my life since seeing him is night and day. I have become so much more positive and more comfortable with myself and that’s all due to him. I cannot recommend him enough

I have been to many different therapists throughout the years. Some of them were good listeners, just not very helpful, and some of them were just in the wrong field altogether. Dr. Pera far surpasses them all. He is extremely knowledgeable, kind, honest, and genuine. He is not only a great diagnostician, but he provides strategies and information to help his clients deal with various issues. He is an authentic, caring doctor and human being not just during office hours. He occasionally runs late for appointment times, but that is only because he gives each of his clients the time they need and sometimes crises come up that require additional time. Overall Dr. Pera is the best therapist I have ever worked with.

Dr. Pera has treated my wife for many years. Her mental health has significantly improved while she has been in his care. I have seen with my own eyes how well therapy is working for her. He answers the many questions we have and is there should any problems arise. I recommend highly.

I have been seeing Dr. Pera for over 10 years after I suffered a TBI. I have come so far since then and Dr. Pera played a huge role in my mental recovery. He is very knowledgeable and almost always had answers for the thousands of questions I thrown at him over the years.

Thank goodness Dr. Pera has been my psychologist for many years. I have never had a horrible experience. Office staff has been more than accommodating and his office environment is bright, warm and comfortable. He is truly effective in helping me to see alternatives and to motivate myself to decrease self-defeating patterns. His compassion as a doctor helped me through my most difficult times
