  • Concerns regarding high staff turnover and lack of consistent care providers
  • Billing and insurance coverage complexities or high costs

In patients' words

"The WORST at communication which now makes sense as to why they have a very high constant turn-over rate with therapists and other employees."

Birdeye (Sensible Care)

"Luisa Contreras was my MFT. She is very caring, professional, and understanding. She helped me cope with my depression and anxiety which I struggled with for many years."

Birdeye (La Vida Counseling Center)

"There’s always rules and excuses to not help people with mental illnesses. They know how being homeless affects people with mental illnesses and they still are hands off when it comes to advocating for clients."
