Meridith is spot on with my issues.

Reviewed September 2025

She was great. I just didn’t get a lot of feed back and I really don’t understand how the person you’re talking to about your issues ie the therapist isn’t the one prescribing the meds. I mean the psychiatrist doesn’t have a clue as to why or what has caused my depression or anxiety so how can she really know what meds are best or if I really even need meds. Maybe I need a Phlebotomy, lol or a brain eraser.

Reviewed May 2025

Listened very well and was upfront about her services and how to follow through with the next steps. Much appreciated.

Reviewed May 2025

I'm satisfied, generally speaking. It would be nice if she had more personality, particularly for a client that's already anxious/nervous.

Reviewed April 2025

She's the perfect practitioner. And I would recommend many more to have her as their practitioner.
