When you are looking for a therapist you are looking for someone to listen and takes account for you as a whole person and Dr. Mason does just that. I have been a patient of Dr. Mason's for 5 years. Dr. Mason has helped me:
1) Overcome and learn how to cope with my depression and anxieties
2) Create a strong mental state for myself
3) Understand my relationships
4) Create healthy relationships with my family and loved ones
5) Empower myself as a women (men reading my review, this is for you too!)
Above all of these, she has been very easy to work with. She makes therapy a relaxing and empowering experience. I have seen other therapists before and in my experience Dr. Mason is extremely attentive and positive You want a therapist who wants to see you thrive and is kind to your troubles, traumas and insecurities. THANK YOU DR MASON! NOTE: Even though I have been under Dr. Mason's care for 5 years, it has not been constant as I heal and other life issues arise.

Dr. Mason has been wonderful to work with over the past nine months. On top of the challenges of living in the covid environment, I have suffered several family losses and stresses. Dr. Mason has helped me every step of the way from being a sympathetic listener to suggesting new ways of approaching difficult family situations, to encouraging me to rebuild my life. She has suggested great books and workbooks that have also helped me review the areas in my life where I am "stuck" and develop new ways of thinking about loss and relationships. I am truly thankful to have been able to benefit from working with Dr. Mason.

Dr. Mason was extremely helpful navigating me through a tough time. Her approach is empathetic and thoughtful while also getting to the core of the issue. She is easy to talk to, making you feel safe and comfortable, even when the discussions are difficult in nature. She is professional while also being kind which are great attributes for someone in her line of work.

Dr. Mason has helped me immensely, both individually and in couples therapy. I appreciate her open and compassionate yet pragmatic style. She has helped me to put perspective on what I’m dealing with, all the time encouraging and empowering me to be my best. She has given me effective tools to use as I navigate everyday ups and downs as well as once in a lifetime hurdles. I am grateful to have her as a resource and will continue to reach out to her when I, or my husband and I, need guidance, perspective, and/or some new strategies. I highly recommend her, without hesitation, to anyone looking for help with the big things or the little things.

I have been seeing Dr. Mason since July 2018. She has helped me emotionally navigate a difficult divorce, a new job, my diagnosis of another chronic disease my daughter’s autism diagnosis. She is always positive and gives me practical strategies to cope and strive amidst all the challenges. I have been in therapy on and off my entire adult life. Her workshops and recommended readings have helped me understand myself better and evolve into a more confident and calm person. Her clinical style is not traditional but extremely effective. I am grateful to have her as my therapist.

I have been seeing Dr Mason for a few years and I can’t say enough good things about her. She is very upbeat and always has a smile on her face. Her personality is kind and happy while being straight forward to address my problems or concerns. She thoroughly understands the clinical side of her profession and often uses it to explain situations that become troublesome for me. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking help or guidance in their life.

Dr. Mason has helped me enormously over these long Covid 19 months. She has met with my husband and I via facetime for couple's therapy and with me regularly via phone. I am grateful to her for her assistance in helping me manage my thoughts, anxiousness and low feelings during this challenging time.

I have been seeing Dr. Mason for quite some time. She has been advising and suggesting ways of how to deal with issues that i have as if it was her own issues. She is very straight forward and will tell you what works and what dose not. She's very knowledgeable but doesn't present herself as an authoritative figure. The meeting with her always feel like talking to a friend instead of to a therapist. I highly recommend her.

I highly recommend working with Dr. Mason. As my first time going to see a therapist, I was so nervous, she assured me that she can help & that I’ll be ok & it was so. She taught me how to develop copying mechanisms to deal with my anxiety, panic attacks and depression which made me feel at peace that everything I was going through will come to pass. After a couple months working with her, I can say that I’m so grateful that I found her. She is genuinely caring, loving, trustworthy, always on time for our sessions and very knowledgeable in her profession. If you are looking for a caring therapist who listens and gives you the best advices to move forward and continue living a happy & successful life, Dr. Mason is your therapist.

Dr. Mason has worked with me in two very different stages in my life. I am currently working with her to improve my mental stability and finding meaning in a well-balanced life. I high recommend working with Dr. Mason as she allows you to express your thoughts without passing judgement and helps to form concrete ideas that are often hard to put into words when you feel overwhelmed with the stresses that daily life can bring. I am hopeful for the path that I am taking to create a better future for myself and am grateful to have a therapist who is able to guide me!

RECENTLY I attended one of her workshops on her boat. I'm not one to go to these but I am so glad that I did. The other people that attended were awesome and I got a lot out of it. Wonderful information and interactively... Plus she even fed us. I'm definitely going to attend another soon.
I knew that going to the workshop would be a wonderful treat as I'm a patient of Dr Rhonda and feel lucky to have her as my doctor. There aren't many doctors that honestly CARE about their patients, and not the bottom line. I was used to sitting in a waiting room forever because of overbooking to see a doctor that probably wasn't even listening to me.
Dr Rhonda, listens, cares, and goes out of her way to make sure I'm okay and working towards getting better.

I am extremely grateful to Dr. Mason! Earlier this month I attended a workshop on "boundaries". I left this workshop with validation and reinforced knowledge why boundaries are important in the workplace and in our personal life. Dr. Mason's insight is spot on, and her presentation and interactive style with each attendee allows for welcoming participation for all in a safe and tranquil environment. I encourage anyone who needs a boost in life to attend one of her many workshops on wellness.

I attended Dr. Mason's Self Love and Acceptance workshop a couple weeks ago in Long Beach and it was a great experience. My first workshop and I'm so happy I stepped out of my comfort zone to try something new. It was a beautiful environment being out on the water on her boat and a nice chance to learn more about myself and connect with other women. I would definitely recommend attending one of her workshops or individual sessions to anyone looking for a positive boost in life!
