Dr.Jensen has been my psychiatrist for over 4 years now and I have always considered his efforts to be valiant and valuable in ensuring that I can acquire what I need to succeed. He's the first successful experience I had after meeting with other psychiatrists and finding those processes arduous and unnecessarily complex. He listened to my developed assessment of myself, trusted me, and worked with me to find the medication and dosing that works best for me. I most definitely trust him, for his interest in my health and well-being are evident whenever we meet. His office is actually accommodating in adjusting appointments and fitting me in as soon as possible if I need to make/reschedule an appointment or collect my prescription. Living over an hour away from the office might have been an issue if Dr.Jensen and his staff were not as flexible and accommodating as they are. We have always been able to work out scheduling that is convenient for me. I only have good experiences and kind impressions to report here! Although I do not seek talk therapy, I find even the short and casual meetings I have with Dr. Jensen to be emotionally valuable, informative, intriguing, and uplifting.

Dr. Jensen is a kind and well to listen individual. I would recommend his services to anyone for a plethora of issues, but chiefly due to this ability to reflectively listen and actually hear what you say. My office visits are always pleasant. I previously came across reviews stating otherwise: that the receptionist was less than friendly, that the office was messy or that there was some other confusion abound. However, in every single one of my appointments, I have never encountered any of the aforementioned. The office always has a warm welcoming tone about it on the coldest day and I appreciate that they have very mid-toned and mild music playing softly. Additionally, they offer coffee and a wide variety of reading materials. I am always in and out in a timely manner, as agreed upon during the last session. Doctor Jensen's office, where you will sit and speak to him, is very plain. I value this because it does not convey hierarchy nor intimate you. I enjoy my visits with him. My overall experiences at this office would be nothing less than stellar. I like the receptionist, I like the office layout and I like the doctor.

I have been seeing Dr. Jensen for just short of 16 years, yes 16, and the man is an incredible human being, in every way I can think of. And since my issues are anxiety and panic attacks, this doctor has been there for me several times to pull me back off the cliff edge. He has a kind and loving heart and constantly provides new and better ways to support his patients. He writes books, makes videos, goes out of his way create modes of support between appointments. I would also add that since he really really cares, he isn’t easily taken advantage of by those just wanting medication, and I know most of his doctor-bashing reviews are by those that didn’t manipulate him into just writing a script. So if you look at ratings, he’s portrayed as either a 5 star or a one star. To me he’s the 5 star and I would suggest anyone try him out for a few sessions before they seek help elsewhere. He does not disappoint those that truly want and need help.

I moved to Fort Collins 4 years ago. Not knowing anyone here, minus my wife and my In-laws. I came to Dr. Jensen not long after arriving here. After we spoke on my first visit, I could feel good vibes from him, so I asked to be seen again. No problems he replied and on I went. Within these last 4 years of coming back to him on a regular bases, I soon realized that Dr. Jensen was not there to just collect a pay check, nor did he want to send me packing. He acknowledged the problems I was having, as well as he was interested in continuing to help me with my struggles. I continue to visit Dr. Jensen, as well as I look forward to seeing him and not only hear what he is saying, but listen to the great advice he gives to me. Not a visit goes by that I leave unsatisfied. I'm very pleased to know that I have been given the path that lead me to him. Highly Recommended!!!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Jensen for over 10 years, and I can’t recommend him enough. His accessibility and clear communication have always made it easy for me to reach out when needed. He is an incredible listener, always taking the time to truly understand my needs and adjusting the approach accordingly. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about his patients' well-being, which makes the therapeutic process so much more effective. I’m grateful for the lasting positive impact my therapy with him has had on my mental health and life over the years. Also want to mention, Kris in the office is awesome: prompt, professional, and communicative!!

Dr. Jensen has been my psychiatrist for over 10 years. His staff is friendly and efficient. After trying many medications that didn't work, I was terrified. He put me on yet 1 more med.that was fairly new. It worked. For the 1st time in 25 years I had relief. However, even with insurance I can't afford it. I literally can't go on without it as my life seems somewhat normal for a change. His faith in me is so great that he is supplying me with samples. I've been on this for over a year! He's been my rock; even when I wasn't so pleasant to him. He never gave up on me and and I never gave up on him as my Dr. Thank you Dr. Jensen
