Vitality Counseling

“I truly cannot say enough good things about Vitality Counseling and the care I’ve received here! From the very beginning, I’ve felt welcomed, heard, and genuinely cared for. Allyn has been absolutely amazing as my therapist. She has created such a safe and comfortable space for me to open up, and I always leave our sessions feeling heard and supported. She is so kind, compassionate, patient, and understanding, and I’m truly grateful to have found her. Rachael has been just as wonderful with my medication management. She really takes the time to listen to my concerns asks questions explains my options, and makes me feel included in decisions about my care. I never feel rushed or dismissed which means so much to me. And I HAVE to mention Mrs. Kim at the front desk! She is seriously the sweetest. 🥹 She has gone out of her way to check on me, make sure I was okay, help me with anything I needed and even worked to get me the soonest appointment possible. Her kindness and genuine concern made an impression on me before I even had my first appointment. I’m so thankful I found Vitality Counseling. Having a team that makes you feel cared for from the front desk all the way through your appointments makes such a difference. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate, attentive, and supportive care.”

“My experience with Grace at Vitality Counseling had a serious and lasting negative impact on my life, and I would strongly encourage others to be cautious when working with her. After a very limited evaluation, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and prescribed medication that left me severely sedated and unable to function normally for nearly a year. During that time, I struggled with basic daily activities, maintaining employment, and staying engaged in my relationships. I felt mentally and physically slowed down to the point that I was not able to live a normal life. I was also told that I did not have ADHD and that ADHD medication would likely cause mania. After seeking a second opinion, I was diagnosed with ADHD and began treatment. I have not experienced the issues I was warned about, and my ability to function has improved significantly. The difference between the two approaches has been substantial. I also have concerns based on a family member’s experience. My father was referred to a testosterone clinic associated with someone Grace knows, and following that, his behavior changed in ways that had serious consequences for our family, including financial harm. While I understand that treatment decisions can be complex, this experience raised additional concerns for me about clinical judgment and referrals. Because of how serious a bipolar diagnosis is, and the strength of the medications used to treat it, I believe this type of diagnosis should only be made after a thorough and careful evaluation. In my case, that level of care did not appear to happen, and the consequences affected my mental health, my ability to work, and my overall quality of life for an extended period of time. For those considering care here, I would strongly recommend asking detailed questions, ensuring a thorough evaluation, and seeking a second opinion before committing to a major diagnosis or medication plan, particularly when working with Grace (or Gracie as she goes by).”

“The staff at Vitality Counseling are so wonderful! Kim is the most amazing therapist, who immediately makes you feel comfortable and at ease! She is so easy to talk to, and shares true empathy with what her patients are dealing with. She has a seemingly effortless way of guiding her patients along the path to improve mental health. Gracie, NP, is equally fantastic. She is very thorough and spends a lot of time with her patients. She never makes you feel rushed, and always includes the patients in decisions about medications. She makes her patients feel heard, and will work with you as long as it takes to help find the right medication, with minimal side effects.”
