I needed someone to talk asap and lifestance was able to pair me with a therapist By the name of James Maxwell within min he was wonderful to talk easy to be me and free to genuinely work on what I needed to work on with him and as of today, I still go once a week on video chat with him to make sure that my day-to-day is A-OK thank you

My personal booking experience went smoothly. I called and got an appointment for an intake the next week and the week after I had a therapist! It took sometime to get a psychologist but the staff made sure to point me in the right direction so I received my medication and now I have a Dr. Who makes it all about me!

Found, this was a very great experience. So far it was being a new person to the group and I'm extremely happy. I got built-in fast and have had great experience with the providers.
