A very good co that is beyond helpful. They are angels on earth. Many ppl with syndromes like mine dont know they are in it. This co provides the right type of care. Please be mindful of your mental health it effects… everyone around you including the birds and the bees. Energy is transferred not created not destroyed like the thunder and the origins of time. Time is a favorable outcome from the universe. Without it wed all be lost. I gained perspective on my meds. You can go silently or go about your business violently. Choose peace, choose care, and most of all choose the right friends that understand and always want you to win even when you dont see it, they do. They always do, from my brother to my mother to my brothers from other mothers. I have it all, i just need to understand one thing. That theres so much out there that we cant see w behavioral issues its not ok to stay in the dark about it. Choose mindful choose the light. Its blinding but its there always watching always caring.

Jen Ingman- fka Chittester6 months ago

I cannot express enough how transformative my experience with Mindful Care has been. Struggling with complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD), agoraphobia, social phobia, dysthymic disorder, and panic disorder has… made it incredibly challenging for me to trust psychiatry and even show up for appointments. However, my experience with my provider has been nothing short of life-changing. From the moment I started my journey with Mindful Care, I felt genuinely heard and understood. My psychiatrist took the time to thoroughly review the extensive history I provided and showed a level of compassion and attentiveness that I had never encountered before. She allowed me to open up at my own pace and focused diligently on my feelings and needs. For the first time in years, my depression is leveled out, and I feel a sense of stability. What stands out the most to me is her willingness to prioritize my desire for the least amount of medication. She actively listened to my concerns about managing my symptoms holistically and worked with me to find the best strategy. Her understanding surpasses any experience I’ve had with past psychiatrists. I truly believe that I wouldn’t be as okay as I am now without her support, and if I could, I would give Mindful Care far more than a five-star rating. The platform itself is impressive. The ease of use, swift crisis response, and the convenience of telehealth have made accessing care more manageable than ever. The ability to schedule appointments quickly and have consultations from anywhere has been a modern miracle for me is truly appreciated. When I first signed up for Mindful Care, the ability to choose my own doctor was paramount. I loved being able to read about potential providers and to have my first appointment within hours. My psychiatrist's profile accurately reflects her qualifications, but in reality, it doesn't do justice to the care and dedication she delivers. With her educational background, including a B.S. and M.S. in Nursing from Herzing University, and her passion for evidence-based mental health care, I couldn't have asked for a better provider. She creates a safe and non-judgmental environment, promoting wellness while reducing stigma—an aspect often overlooked in mental health care. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Mindful Care and my doctor, Idalia Alavez Pinto. They are truly dedicated to the wellbeing of their patients, and I am incredibly grateful for the support I have received. For the first time in 10+ years I feel hopeful- and that itself is worth so much more then I can express.

I really enjoyed my session with my therapist. It was very flexible with my schedule plus I felt safe, heard and most importantly I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a outlet to release their thoughts and… feelings to help better themselves. There is always hope & thanks to mindful we can take a healthy step towards expressing ourselves with a therapist who is non judgmental and can provide guidance and support.

If it's your first time missing an appointment, they'll charge you a 50$ cancellation fee I don't agree with this.You should at least have some leniency if its your first time missing an appointment.

The staff are unprofessional and difficult to communicate with. Esha Kacker was so unprofessional. Appointments with her would last less than 5 minutes and just Cover the bare minimum to prescribe medication. She was… wearing pajamas with curlers in her hair slumped on the couch for the appointment.
