See what our patients are saying about Catherine Russell

Catherine has been thorough and knowledgeable from the first day I met with her. I was very anxious and scared to have any diagnosis, so it was very important that we discussed everything thoroughly before coming to a conclusion. She took the time to set my anxiety at ease while not making me feel like I was asking too many questions. I truly appreciated it because I feel like other doctors in the past may have stopped me from getting help I needed because I didn’t want to waste their time. I’ve been seeing her for about 4 years now and she is still as great as the day I met her!

I can’t say enough great things about LifeStance. I have been going to LifeStance for decades. Dr. Catherine Russell has been my Psychiatrist for years and she is amazing. She is a great listener, makes me feel heard, and always makes me feel so much better after each appointment. DR. Russell always makes herself available when I’ve needed her. Dr. Russell truly cares about her patients (my experience). If you are looking for mental health treatment, LifeStance is absolutely fantastic! Recommend 100%!!!

It was my first appointment with Catherine. My anxiety was high because I didn’t want to have to start with someone new. I also have a hard time opening up and talking. Catherine immediately took the lead and made me more comfortable.
