This level of attention to detail and communication has made all the difference for my family. Thank you, David!

Jennifer: I’ve been a patient of Dr. Wexler’s for a year and a half. As an adult, I’ve shied away from treating my mental health issues with more than just counseling. I frequently have bad/unexpected reactions to medications, and was misdiagnosed in the past. It’s tough to find a doctor who will listen, understand your challenges, digest your complete history, and find something that really works. Dr. Wexler is that doctor. He understands how to use old and new meds, stays current with developments in the field, and is able to tailor treatment when typical SSRIs or SNRIs don’t do the job. Dr. Wexler brings 30 years of experience plus curiousity, humanity and a patient-centric focus to his practice. He explains his approach throughout, ensures I’m comfortable with the path we’re taking, and is able to make the science behind what he’s doing accessible.

Occasionally, one of the drugs I'm taking loses its efficacy and Dr. Wexler works tirelessly to find a substitute to address the problem. Dr. Wexler is a kind and compassionate man. If you are lucky enough to be his patient, you will have a medical professional dedicated to your well-being.

Suraj I.: Dr. Wexler is the most helpful, reliable, & quick doctor you will ever find in this country. He is the last psychiatrist that I will see in my lifetime. Before seeing Dr. Wexler, I had been through multiple shrinks, many meds, many misdiagnoses, & alternative treatments. Now, all I can say is that Dr. Wexler is "the one." He has helped me cover each/every one of my ongoing health issues. I would say he is easily the best psychiatrist I've seen while living in California. He approaches his psychopharmacology work in the most compassionate but pragmatically effective way–like a brain surgeon. He has already helped me tons, & I'm looking forward to continuing my mental health journey with Dr. Wexler. I really can't thank him enough for his help or explain how much he has helped in words.

After struggling for 38 years in all facets of my life and seeing multiple psychiatrists with lackluster results to say the least, Dr Wexler nailed it the first time. Ive since succeeded in my career, love life, family life etc.He is extraordinarily brilliant his craft. He is friendly, down to earth, and easy to talk to. I can not recommend him enough!

Aidan Spillane: I suffered from severe chronic depression which is very hard to treat with common medications and such. Again the demons of depression and other mental health illnesses often cause suicide, so really he is a soldier prepared for battle with the most complex of mental health situations.It took some tinkering and time for me to heal, but I did heal, not partially, but fully."It does not matter how one achieves results, It matters that the results are achieved." And I think Dr. Wexler fits perfectly in this quote. I will end with this, there is no guarantee that he will slay your mental health demons, but there is no other person who is equipped, prepared, and tactile enough like Dr. Wexler. He truly is remarkable to say the least.

Gloria L: Dr. Wexler is compassionate and caring, yes, but more importantly he is absolutely cutting edge and incredibly well-versed in the field of psychopharmacology. His boundless drive and enthusiasm for solving a particular patient's challenges reminds me of Sherlock Holmes, except with the opposite personality, i.e. extremely warm and caring!

Miles Ashlock: Dr. Wexler is a gentle genius... he is kind and reassuring, while also extremely knowledgeable about psychopharmacology. More than a decade ago, I turned to him at a time when I was desperate for help... after my first appointment, I felt a sense of relief that I had found a doctor that would listen and that wouldn't give up until we'd come to a solution. Not long after our first appointment, I was feeling much better and saw him regularly for several years. He is one of the few doctors I've found that I actually trust with my life!

Jared Naylor: Dr. Wexler is the best psychiatrist I've been to, hands down. It's clear how knowledgeable and passionate he is about psychiatry and how much he cares about his patients from the moment you enter his doors. I've been seeing him for anxiety and OCD for the past six months and have made incredible strides at living a more happier, healthier life. I look forward to each of our meetings, and the best part is, I know I'm in good hands if I ever have any mental health flare ups in the future.

Norma Letasse: Dr. Wexler is truly a life saver!! I have been going to him for over 12 years. He is THE best physician I have ever been to, and I am a picky nurse! He is compassionate, incredibly over the top smart! He knows his psychopharmacology like no other. I would travel anywhere to see him. He is always available, never makes me feel like I am a bother, and truly is like a great friend after all of these years. He deeply cares about his patients, for me he truly has gotten me through extremely challenging times and I always came out that much better! I can't say enough about Dr. Wexler, you won't find anyone that matches his intelligence, manner, and kindness.

Eileen Ambrosini: than has been the case in over the last eight + years. He keeps abreast of the newest developments & advancements in the fields of psychiatry & psychopharmacology.The passion that he shows for his specialities is obvious.Following each appointment his written feedback is prompt - as is his response when I have e-mailed or texted him with questions or concerns. He sends his reports to my other treating physicians & therapist, often following up with phone calls or taking their calls. The result: a team of professionals all working together toward the same goal.The confidence that I have in Dr. Wexler & in his ability to finally help me thrive cannot be overstated. How fortunate I feel to have become his patient!EA CaliforniaN. B. Not a criticism, but a fact of life : Be aware that you will need to pay for your care out of pocket. No insurances are accepted.

Schott Blackman: It is an absolute pleasure to write a review for Dr. Wexler. I have suffered from depression since my early teens. I saw over 10 psychologists and psychiatrists and was prescribed numerois medications. Because of my depression I lost jobs, friends and close relationships. It was in my mid 30s that I was referred to Dr. Wexler. He immediately diagnosed me as bipolar and prescribe a new medicine for me. That one day has changed my life completely. I have an fantastic wife, two amazing wonderful kids, and plan on retiring soon. I give all the credit in the world to Dr. Wexler for making me the man I always know I could be.Scott B

Daniel Oh: .What gravitated me to Dr. Cotsen the most was his availability. While other psychiatrists, maybe months out, Dr. Cotsen tried to fit me in somehow in his busy schedule. He responds very quickly which is something I really appreciate.He is receptive, kind, great listener, flexible, and constructive on his feedback and provides many tools you may revert to in tough situations.Good psychiatrists are often hard to come by, Dr. Cotsen is one of them.

Kameron Wyatt: My time with Dr. Cotsen has been very beneficial. He provides an open and non-judgmental space for me to express myself comfortably, no matter the issue or topic we’re working through.

Crista Ru: Dr. Cotsen has helped me so much and I’m so grateful to have come across him. I found him initially through Yelp years ago and have since become a regular patient. It’s hard to feel comfortable even with people you’re close with to talk about the things you really are struggling with and Dr. Cotsen has a genuine kindness that helps make it easier to get the words out. As someone that wants to live life to the fullest and needed help figuring out how to manage and heal from the assortment of not so fun things life dealt me, I’ve found talking to him and the techniques he’s shared to be imperative to my well being and happiness. The best thing you can do for yourself is get help when you need it and if you’re reading this you’ve come to the right place.

Technicali: Working alongside with Dr. Cotsen coaching and mentoring me on the sidelines has been the most eye opening and productive five months of my life.His kind, insightful and reliable information makes him the amazing Psychotherapist/Psychaitrist that he his.

John Wagner: I have been seeing Dr. Cotsen for over ten years covering a number of issues. He has been the most valuable part of my quest for personal acceptance, self awareness and positive behavioral changes. Through therapy and medication, Dr. Cotsen continues to provide me with the assistance I need for a greatly improved quality of life. For this I am very thankful.

David Solmonson: After exhaustive research and speaking with a handful of doctors, I decided that Dr. Cotsen would be the best fit. My instincts proved to be spot on. Dr. Cotsen worked with me to address my immediate needs to get back to work and then transitioned to a more longterm plan. He is cautious with medication but applies it where needed. He is also incredibly kind and easy to open up to. It wouldn’t be hyperbole to say that Dr Cotsen changed my life — for the better, of course. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Antonio Ruiz-Santiago: I have known Dr Adam Cotsen for over 2 years now. At the time when I started seeing him I was very down and not in a good place. He has been consistently attentive, respectful, and super helpful all around. I would recommend Dr Cotsen to anybody looking for someone who will work with you to work on your mental health.

Jamie Venable: I started to see Dr. Cotsen during a very stressful time in my life five years ago and he has been my psychiatrist and psychotherapist ever since. He brings a calm demeanor complimented with a high level of intellect to our sessions. Over the years, his insight has been quite helpful and kept me on a healthy path. I am fortunate to be able to see him on a regular and consistent basis. This familiarity has assisted me in identifying patterns that I sometimes find myself in the process of repeating before I go too far in the wrong direction. He truly cares for the wellbeing of his patients.

T L: I am an attorney with a stressful job. Dr. Cotsen is smart, friendly and effective. He guided me on ways to manage my anxiety both with mental exercises and medication. He listens to what you are saying and thinks through his responses. He’s very mindful.

Van: I wanted to write this review just to write it; then I REALLY wanted to write it upon seeing a clearly negative & misleading review about this really great doctor and nice person.I have been a patient of Dr. Cotsen for going on ten years now.  I was referred to him by an amazing psychiatrist who was one of the heads of Mental Health at Kaiser Permanente.  I dropped my Kaiser Ins. & could no longer see him, & he recommended Dr. Cotsen referring to him as someone he wouldn’t hesitate to send a family member to.Dr. Cotsen has lived up to the praise.  In contrast to the recently posted negative review, in my experience Dr. C is far from judgmental.  In fact, his open-mindedness was one of the first things I liked about him.  He consistently keeps up to date with the latest in therapy & medication throughout the field of psychiatry & I can't tell you how much he has helped me throughout the years. I do want to say though that he takes his job seriously & is cautious when it comes to prescribing medications that could be abused...as any doctor in this day & age should.I've REALLY appreciated Dr. Cotsen's steadiness & warmth over the years.  Make an appointment & if you're like me, you will be glad you did.

Keith C: You know that dream therapist you only see in movies? I know one. Dr. Adam Cotsen.This guy listens. He remembers. He helps even when ‘help’ seems impossible. I’ve wrestled with depression and social anxiety and he’s been there not just to prescribe the medications I needed but also to listen to me - and really hear me - through all kinds of challenges I’ve run up against over the last few years. Through it all I’ve felt certain I have him as a confidant and an ally. No matter what you’re experiencing he will be on your side and fight for the best for you.He doesn’t judge - he encourages an environment of honesty that leads to genuine self-discovery and realization. I instantly felt at ease when I first met him and his knowledge and insight has continued to surprise me ever since.Through our work together, Dr. Cotsen has helped me to overcome a desire to harm myself. He’s taught me techniques to help me dive over negative thoughts. That was huge for me. He’s given me a confidence and desire to be alive and thrive in this world. He’s been open and honest about how various medications work and how to take them in order to see the real results.If you’re looking for a great therapist look no further. If you’re looking for a psychiatrist who can help you figure out what you need - you got it. If you’re looking for an intelligent doctor who feels like the kind of friend who will listen to your random thoughts and genuinely be delighted when you hit on something important - yeah this is the guy.

Debra Winkler: Dr. Cotsen is the most caring, compassionate therapist I have ever known. He makes me feel totally understood without passing judgment. He truly cares about the well being of his patients. He offers practical advice on the approach to any problem you present. His office is truly a safe spot. He also is very knowledgeable about medications. I have never presented a situation/problem that he cannot make better by his extremely astute understanding and practical solutions. He also has a great sense of humor when appropriate. I can not recommend him highly enough.

S.A. Schmidt: I have been going to Dr. Cotsen for about two years now and can only recommend him whole heartedly to anyone who feels it's time they addressed some of their issues with a professional. I normally don't write reviews unless a business is either exceptionally good or the counter opposite. In Dr. Cotsen's case it is the former! Two years ago I was dealing with stressors in my life that I could no longer handle by myself and so I knew it was time to make that step and become one of those people who have to go see a "shrink". Once I overcame my fear of that stigma I began very thorough research, for if I were to go then at least I needed to go to the very best I could find! After some time of searching I came upon Dr. Adam's practice and what made me chose him were his credentials, his reviews and last not least the overall impression I got from his website, his articles and so on. In short, he clearly knew his stuff! So, fast forward two years I made the right decision back then as meanwhile I have been able to overcome what was ailing me and Dr. Cotsen played a major part in that! Because I was afraid of landing in the wrong hands I must admit that my expectations of him were very high and still he managed to pleasantly surprise me! He is exceptionally intelligent, aware and will see right through you even when you yourself are so busy with yourself that you can no longer see the forest for the trees! He is also very gentle, non invasive and never made me feel uncomfortable even when I was speaking of rather embarrassing, personal details. The one thing which stood out the most to me and which I certainly did not expect from psycho therapy, is how much we ended up laughing together! Dr. Cotsen's approach enabled me, over time, to gain a more accurate, neutral perception of myself rather than being too closed-off immersed in myself and thus the severity of what was on my mind at times began to seem smaller until it lessened altogether! To sum this up I highly recommend Dr. Cotsen because you will be hard pressed in finding a more qualified, genial and compassionate mental health care provider than him!

Brian Midwin: I've seen Dr Cotsen for almost 15 years and I will say he's an excellent therapist and who is also incredibly knowledgeable about medications. I've been able to discuss a range of issues with him and I appreciate his perspective and feedback. We've had times where we met every week and other times where we met a few times a year but he always comes to our appointments prepared and able to pick up exactly where we left off. Five stars.

Mary Jane Blank: I've been going to Dr. Cotsen for about 3 years and in that time he has always encouraged me to live a healthy life. His biggest strengths are his sense of humor, his adaptibility, and his knowledge of transgender life. As a transgender woman going through some huge peaks and valleys with my self-image and self-confidence he has always supported me and encouraged me to get back on hormones to better my life. Dr. Cotsen is a great choice if you're trans or queer.

Jason Summa: I have been seeing Dr. Hall for over 7 years. She is great listening and has excellent observational skills. Dr. Hall is very empathetic and is willing to spend time educating patients and families about diagnosis and recommended treatments. She has an incredible breadth of knowledge and impeccable note taking skills. Most importantly, Dr. Hall possesses great humility, both professionally and personally.

hodgemediagroup: Dr. Julie is the best!

Lisa Greer: Dr. Hall is awesome!

Donna Harel: I love Dr. Hall. She has been my psychiatrist for over 6 years and I could not be happier. She is kind, is an amazing listener, and is really good at explaining the medication. She does not want to give out medications unless she really thinks it will benefit you. Unlike other doctors that make you feel like they just want to give you meds and for you tot leave, she makes sure she has a full understanding of what you are going through and why medications will benefit you. Highly recommend!

Kim Zwicke: . She goes out of her way to fill out medical forms, doctor's notes, disability insurance information, etc. She is worth the money! I promise!

Chloe Olivares: I like Dr. Hall. I felt hopeless after my previous psychiatrist’s approach to “helping” me. He would prescribe pills with no interest in finding a solution for my symptoms, or explaining his prognosis. My first appointment with Dr. Hall however, I liked that she literally wrote out the symptoms she heard from my responses to the questions she asked. She explained the types of medication that can help treat those symptoms and creating a plan with me. She really was engaging with finding a ”cocktail“ so to speak of medication right for me. To help get me on the right track. By no means is this my first rodeo. And there is no one magic pill to cure mental illness. It’s a journey with peaks and valleys. So far so good.

Meg Zukin: Dr. Hall is an excellent psychiatrist with a warm bedside manner. A welcome change from previous psychiatrists I had seen who were more cold/clinical. I felt like she care about the holistic person
