Family Therapists - San Diego, CA

"If you need a fair, rational and unbiased therapist who is experienced with narcistic personality disorder and sociopathic behavior, AVOID Mark Kaupp at all cost. To start, I have seen three other therapists over the course of my life, and therefore can speak from experience of the tremendous benefits of a professional therapist. With Mark however, I have never encountered one more arrogant, dismissive and one-sided. My daughter and I saw him for four sessions to help resolve some difficult family dynamics and misunderstandings. He repeatedly mentioned how attractive and beautiful my daughter was. It was uncomfortable to hear as a father. He also told me privately that she was a "flight risk" and therefore he needed to "go easy on her." This unfounded perception of him resulted in very one-sided sessions. Even when I presented black and white evidence of inaccurate perceptions and accusations (his recommendation), Mark would say things such as, "It looks like you are being defensive. In my experience, people who bring in evidence are guilty." He is incredibly unprofessional and only made an already difficult relationship worse. "

"Rafael is absolutely incredible!! He is very efficient and effective with his approach. Unbelievably easy to talk to and he has changed my view of my self and the way I see and relate to the people around me for the better. Rafael goes above and beyond the call of duty you expect to receive when you see a counselor. He showed amazing compassion and insights in helping me sort through my issues. I truly feel that he has a special gift he helped me acknowledge my sadness and find my own answers to heal my emotional wounds. His technique in therapy is so unique and different from ordinary therapy. Rafael has a way of helping you understand your inner-workings without telling you how to live your life. He has helped me discover how to live a full life. Now looking back, his point of view was so rational and straight forward but during crisis, one needs help in seeing it. I learned so much every week when I saw Rafael I do recommend him to anybody who needs anything. He is so different from all the others and one will learn so much from his wisdom and techniques. "

"The therapist was great! he really helped me a lot."

"Great listener, down to earth, and made me feel very welcome for my first visit"

"Many emails and texts about patient no-show costs $65 but when the therapist no-shows it's fine? WellNite keeps all user info on file, will not remove CC info. BEWARE OF THIS SCAM. "

"Some of the therapy from Denise was helpful, and from a Christian perspective. But I felt she lacked intelligence, insight and understanding of mental health diagnoses. I realize she is not a psychiatrist, but she appeared arrogant to me in making assumptions about things she clearly did not understand and probably had little training in. In both my case, and a friend of mine's case, she was very abrupt in cancelling the therapy after she felt like it was going nowhere. In my case, she caused a very significant decline in the functioning of the relationship that I was seeking help from her for. So she seems nice, but, look out for these issues, or avoid her altogether. "
