Patient Reviews
Jul 31, 2021
Dr. Venkatachalam has been my therapist for several months now, and I have already recommended her to family. My initial appointment with her was SO thorough. I really feel she got to know me. She's helped me reclaim my mental health. My only regret is not scheduling an appointment sooner. Don't put off your mental health, folks. I appreciate that I can have my appointments online, and that I have a patient portal through which I can manage any paperwork. It is very convenient. Thank you, Dr. Venkatachalam for your help.
