Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

I have seen Ruthie off and on since 2012. She is very professional, trustworthy, and has your best interest at heart. Anytime I needed her abruptly she would get back to me within an hour and get me in as soon as possible, most of the time that day. I have recommended her to a few close friends. She knows what she is doing and she is great at what she does. I highly recommend Ruthie.

I have been seeing Ruthie for about six months after a colleague referred me to her for family and professional support and counseling. She has been professional, empowering, and competent throughout our counseling relationship.

I have been seeing Ruthie for individual therapy for trauma for almost 4 years. I have made tremendous progress and would recommend Ruthie to anyone looking for a competent, kind, compassionate, and skilled therapist. I appreciate the added aspect of a christian perspective in the therapy process.

Extremely unprofessional & would not recommend, Consistently late( over 45mins-hour) or no showed (3-4 times) Almost always unprepared with no review. Worst part-BC/BS would not reimburse over $1,500 of fees due to Ruth mishandling& incorrectly documenting. BC/BS tried to contact numerous times via phone/mail with no response. When confronted stated" well you know insurance companies screw things up all the time.I'd have to charge you for my time to go through the bills". Avoid at all costs
