"Mark was the best and only therapist I've had who provided support that made a difference! ... He truly changed my life."
— Healthgrades review for Mark Bottinick, LCSW"I had a frustrating experience with Thriveworks due to a scheduling issue. They have a very strict policy and charge a $135 late/no-show fee... Their approach feels overly rigid and profit-driven."
