"I cannot express my gratitude for my therapist Blaine. Not only did I have OCD but many complex underlying traumas. I have seen therapists since I was young and no one has ever been able to give me true knowledge and take my entire experience of life into account. Some how , Blaine did. He is the best therapist I have ever had hands down. He knows his stuff inside and out, is current on all the new scientific studies, and can understand and treat many complex issues. If every Dr. was as thorough as he was the world would be better off. Was the experience hell-yes. Was it a lot of courage and hard work-yes. But, if you are willing to get outside of your head and suffer for a while it will change your life forever. My daughter, after going to a different OCD center at 16- found a more complete healing with Blaine. I kept telling him he needs a podcast. Thank you Blaine-I hope calm OCD appreciates who is working for them. I never write reviews but I did because he deserved it."
