I love Lifestance. I've been using Lifestance for all my therapy needs for 4 years. I like that I can look through all the therapist and read about them. I can chose the therapist I think I'll get along with best. I love my therapist Yulonda! I feel she goes above and beyond her duty. She feels like a good friend! Appointments are easy to make. I can do video appts from my cell phone or laptop from anywhere that's convenient for me. I can message my therapist anytime of day for questions or refill needs. I can chose the length of my appointment as well. I love how easy it is and that it's covered by my health insurance. I highly recommend Lifestance Health and definitely recommend Yulonda!

I have been seeing with Yulonda Leverett for about two years. She is compassionate, and knowledgeable and I appreciate that she is also holistic. She listens with care and advises without being quick to prescribe medication. She’s very easy to talk to. I highly recommend her.

I have been a patient of Yulonda Levrette since 2021, her communication style and care has been a considerable help in my journey, and I wouldn't have made the progress I have without her and my therapist's help. Thank you for all you do.
