Vista Psychological Counseling Centre

I never had any issues with the front desk or anyone here, ever. Everyone has been so welcoming. It all started 3 years ago with an evaluation with Dr Humphries, and I decided to go there for my therapy. They've worked with me numerous of times regarding scheduling. I currently see Dr Bradford and she's been patient and helpful. They also actually answer their phones! I've attempted to find somewhere closer to me, but they were so hard to get ahold of, so I'm making the drive.

Preface: I’m not invalidating anyone’s experience here. Each provider and experience with admin is different, and I was honestly very hesitant to go here based off of the reviews. That being said, we had a really great experience with Allison Harrison and I’d recommend her, especially for anyone seeking testing and help for a neurodiverse child to find a way to both understand and offer support. We had been on a long journey for autism testing, on 2+ year waitlists at multiple hospital systems. We finally opted to come here instead. I’m so glad we did. Our son, 11, loved Allison. She was able to work with him and find a way to understand how his brain works to offer us a path forward, and the information we need to be fully prepared to support him as he learns and grows. The medical system in the United States is horrible to navigate. This was a better experience than most for us, and I’m glad we landed where we did. Many thanks.

At Vista, I saw Virginia as a therapist. She was the first therapist i have ever liked and connected with. I'm been seeking mental healthcare for 15 years now, so that's saying something good about about her. I also saw Tara for medication management. those appointments were quick, but our brief times, i did enjoy. Dr. Humphries did my first round of testing for an ASD eval. I am happy for the part he played in my healthcare, but overall, i'm not nearly as comfortable with men in mental health than women. not a lot he could have changed about that, so it's not a statement denigrating him. Just my own preference and comfort. Last, i saw Erin twice, who did my final ASD eval. She was kind, patient, and did her best to steer me in the right direction post ASD diagnosis. I am only ceasing my treatment at vista because, i have problems that other, larger places are more handled to equip. I would recommend Vista and anyone there whom i have been a patient of. never forget, finding the right doctor/therapist/np/etc for you is one of the most important parts of your healthcare in general, let alone mental healthcare. If i get my issues settled to a point i need less intervention, i will happily return, unless i have to follow Virginia elsewhere to have her as a therapist again. i also want to add in the all of the front office staff are delightful. i was always greeted with warmth and a smile, even if i walked in looking like my soul had just been forcefully removed from my body through my chest.
