I find Trina Martin to be very easy to talk to, as she has a nice way about her. She also is an excellent medication prescriber, and I trust her skills and judgment. I feel fortunate to be her patient.
Absolutely great experience. Trina's very welcoming and provides a good environment or complete honesty - never passes judgement. Most importantly, her knowledge of the mental and physical was great. Very smart and focuses on the whole patient.
Very kind and understanding. No judgement at all, and paid close attention/ referred back to things I mentioned during our appointment. I felt heard and comfortable.
Michael listens to his pts and has a good heart. He is one in a million and should teach other care givers that medicine is not a business but caring for people.
Trina put me at ease at the first visit with her. I found her easy to talk to and look forward to our next session.
I found Trina to be very concerned about my issues. She was very professional and I found her easy to talk to.
Michael listens to my concerns and provides helpful guidance.
Michael is quick to provide positive acknowledgment of successes and really listens to your concerns over challenges. He works with you to provide the best plan to manage your symptoms without over medicating you. I was on a good medication regimen when I started to see Michael. After listening to my history he saw no need to make any changes. That being said, he is still very attentive, asking pertinent questions to make sure that I am still on a stable plan.
Very satisfied with our first appt. Very thorough and patient, got to know my daughter and listened to my concerns.
Trina was wonderful!!! She was professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. She answered all my questions and made me very comfortable to share my story. She was the perfect person to start off my journey to better “me” health:)
My son felt comfortable there on the very first visit. Michael was an excellent listener and already proposed some treatment ideas after hearing our concerns.
From day one, Michael had a unique approach to building rapport with our child, finding common ground and including our child in every conversation about their care. He listens well and determines the best course of action.
very happy with interactions
We appreciate his transparent, professional and consultative approach. Mike has our son’s best interests at hand and cares about our family’s future.
He is great listens to you and very knowledgeable one of the best I've met
Very intelligent, kind, and understanding. He takes the time to understand you and your symptoms to pick the best course of action for you.
Ms. Martin was very professional and compassionate. She listened to my concerns and addressed any questions I had. I look forward to starting therapy with this group.
Mike is exactly what my mental health needed! He is empathetic and professional. Friendly and very understanding. HE KNOWS HIS STUFF! I know I’m getting the best care possible with Mike. I don’t know what I’d do without him!!
I felt “heard” and understood
Trina Martin is a compassionate and understanding therapist. I was able to connect with her instantly and really feel like she is helping me through a very difficult time in my life. I’m so thankful for her and this practice! If you are looking for help with medication management you will be very happy with their expertise in this area!
