My Client Success Stories
KF
Absolutely the best mental health provider I’ve ever worked with. He’s attentive, listens, and respects his patients’ experience. Some doctors think they know better than you do what you’re going through. And sometimes you might not know and need that perspective. But I knew what I was dealing with and Dr Anderson listened to my research, considered my opinions, and helped me validate the type of help I needed. To that end, he helped me solve a serious problem and I’ve been doing the best I have done in many years under his care. Highly recommend him.

I have never felt so heard and understood when it comes to speaking with someone about my mental health. I am not one for wanting medicine or even feeling like I can't do things on my own. He validated my situations and the things I was going through and helped me understand that I do not have to go through things alone.
