I recommended thriveworks to a friend and she booked an appointment. She told me the provider she got (not mine) jumped very quickly into intake questions without any greeting and it made her feel uncomfortable. She switched providers after that.

I work with Christian Hansent, and the experience has been amazing. Christian has genuine empathy and compassion coupled with detailed knowledge of scientific principles and a drive to improve the lives of his clients. This is my first experience going to therapy and my only regret is that I didn't find Thriveworks sooner. Thank you!

My therapist Rayla, was fantastic. She was realistic, easy to chat with and I’m glad I had her to guide me through the past year and a half. I’m sad to be ending because of insurance BS, but the tools and convos we’ve shared will be a great guide for me. Rayla relates your problems to her own life so you don’t feel alone and she listens to what you really care about.

I really like how easy it is to navigate Thriveworks - from the variety of providers to the flexibility of hours. I enjoy working with Liz the most, there's a level of understanding that she brings to our sessions that facilitates healing. I'm grateful that Thriveworks allowed me to meet with many different folks before deciding who aligns the most with my current needs.
