See what our patients are saying about Alison Shapiro

I am particularly selective on the people I let in on the private matters of my life, so much so, I have developed and incorporated a keen intuition as part of my discernment process. The first thing I noticed about Alison— before I met her— was simply her genuine smile. And it turns out I was correct. Alison is genuine in her approach, as she is patient, guides well with great listening and questioning, responds appropriately with her own experiences as they may relate to mine, and will complement her advise with what she feels are better resources to any of my concerns that may go beyond her expertise. All in all, I am pleasantly pleased and impressed with Alison's good-nature and professionalism.

1 year with Lifestance and most of that time has been with Alison Shapiro to date. I, for once in a really long time can say I, am in a good place because of the care I receive. To be seen, heard, and engaged with is becoming uncommon in healthcare. Not at Lifestance. My life last year and up to right now has changed for the better because of what you have read above. If you knew me you'd swear it's too good to be true a year ago. I'm a really lucky guy. I'm healthier today. D. Davis

Alison is great!! I really like her. Check in with Life stance - RIDICULOUS!!!!! OMG, by the time I got to the questions concerning how I felt I was too annoyed to answer them. So, I clicked on the first response for each question, didn't even read them.
