Over 2 years with my therapist and she’s a 10/10. She has helped me a lot with all of my issues, especially coping with BPD and depression. She’s very accommodating and willing to go above and beyond!

I’ve been with mental health counseling for over a year. I never have an issue contacting them via email. The Theranest, however, seems to glitch a lot. Overall, the therapist I had/have currently is great.

I have been receiving therapy sessions from MMHC since 2020 at the height of the pandemic. Experiencing anxiety in a new light scared me the most. I needed to get help ASAP. Googled around and stumbled upon MMHC. Ever since they have been super supportive and super accommodating. Deff a great place!!
