I have been seeing Mei Leff for several months now, and I cannot express enough how this process has been for me. I have had challenging times that I have never had to endure before, and I am incredibly grateful for her support and expertise. She allows a safe environment for me to be upfront and honest. She reminds me to allow grace and dignity to myself when I believe I have failed or taken steps backwards. I highly recommend Mei Leff for those who are seeking empathy and commitment to making their recovery process a success. I am genuinely grateful for her.

Mei gave me more relief on our first visit than I have had in twenty years! I can't tell you how great I have felt since that appointment, just to know someone actually cares and can provide me with the type of help I need, and the whole time I was talking with her I felt peace, and a calm that I haven't ever felt before. Finally after all these years! I'm so thankful!!

With any and everything in therapy it takes time to find something that fits you and I found that in life stance. The only complaint I have is there system and how it's constantly changing but all the people who work there have been amazing and as helpful as they can be.
