"Dr. Ackerman is a very caring and patient therapist. She makes you feel good after leaving her sessions, because you can see she enjoys what she does and truly cares about her patients, she has helped me through some very difficult times and continues to do so. I look forward to her sessions every time because she is honest and teaches me how to deal with certain situations so I can feel good about myself. I can honestly say she has been a life saver for me and would highly recommend her to everyone in need."
"I have been seeing Dr. Ackerman regularly for well over a year. She is undoubtedly the best therapist I have ever worked with. That’s not to say others have not been helpful. The difference is that Dr. Ackerman has been by far the most effective at helping me identify and stop behavior patterns that were keeping me stuck in a difficult situation.
I’m now moving forward through a very challenging time in my life, largely because Dr. Ackerman heard, understood, and guided me to take the action I needed to. I’m learning to deal with deeply rooted fears and beliefs in a positive way. Her insights have challenged me to change the things I needed to, and better manage things not in my control. I feel like I’ve been released from a hamster wheel.
All this was done with tremendous kindness and sensitivity. Her positive approach and encouragement has made me braver and stronger after years of feeling unbalanced in certain key personal relationships. She has brought me back to myself after I unwittingly allowed situations to wear away at my self esteem for years.
Based on my personal experience, I can recommend Dr. Ackerman with no reservations and am forever grateful."
"Really enjoy working with Dr. Ackerman. She is patient, insightful and is a good listener. Her advice is solid and supportive. She challenges me appropriately. Overall top marks.
Finding a therapist is always like trying on a pair of shoes. Not all size 9s will be comfortable. No therapist is for everyone, but Dr. Ackerman definitely fits the bill for me and many others."
