I was Connie's patient for 6 years I am bipolar and have had to come to terms with quite a few very traumatic issues since early childhood. Without the help and guidance from Ms. McDonald I'd never had come close to where I am today, although I've still got mountains to overcome, I am now well equipped with the proper tools, I know how to monitor my moods, breathe thru my constant anxiety, avoid negative influences, and when I make a mistake I know how to stop myself, take inventory, and rectify the situation. Connie has helped me become a better mother, a better daughter, a better citizen by helping me learn to embrace and nurture my mental illness, showing me how to stay aware of myself and my effect on others, but mostly by guiding me through all the dark painful confusion and anger and showing me how to find and provide others with the good within myself.... I'm extremely thankful for her help to be a better mom and a better me ...without her I'm sure that I'd have taken my own life years ago

I am going to refer everyone I know here. I absolutely love this place. I could tell that they took pride in their office's appearance. It was very well organized and well taken care of. The office was very easy to locate. I didn't have any trouble finding it at all. I've never seen anyone who is more respected by their staff. The entire staff only had great things to say about working there, and it made me want to return all the more. They made sure that their qualifications were obvious. I was confident that I was under the care of a professional.
