"The clinicians here have been great. I have thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated and benefitted from my relationship with both of my providers here. However, as others have said, working with Mindpath has been a nightmare... The office staff as well as any patient interfaces, apps and schedulers are not something I would recommend."
— Mindpath Health Patient Review"You do not want to go to a provider for mental health and leave feeling unseen and unheard. They didn't have running water but continued taking urine samples creating unsanitary conditions. Consistently seen late."
— Solari Mental and Behavioral Health Services Patient Review"As someone who has worked with a variety of therapists for over a decade, Joelle is phenomenal! ... I know that she is one of the only providers I've ever had that had made me feel not alone."
