I just wrapped up working with Kim Herrera. Kim provided a great sounding board and useful insights as I worked through a large number of major life events in a short period of time! She helped me keep things in perspective and to change the framing if I was dwelling too much on the negative view of things or feeling anxious.

Kim was an excellent therapist. She offered good advice and lent an ear when I just needed to ramble a bit. I am thankful we had the opportunity to connect, and I know if I ever need to talk to her in the future, she’ll be there to listen.

I personally have been making many good progresses with Kim. Due to my upbringing I struggle with low self-esteem and blurred sense of self. I felt empowered by Kim and her therapy style helps me pin point the root problem. I feel comfortable sharing my personal experiences with Kim pretty much right off the bat. I would recommend Kim to anyone who is ready to make changes and put in their own share of effort as well.

Dr. Michael Koren has been my therapist for one year. Throughout our time, we’ve worked on dealing with anxiety, depression, feelings of low self-esteem, low confidence, and the sources of shame and worthlessness. I went on a journey to discover my self-worth and have come to a place where I feel like I deserve love just like anyone else. It involved working through childhood trauma and how it has played out in my life to this day. Mike has been with me through this journey, providing insight, wisdom and encouragement throughout. The work involved has been substantial and hard and Mike would let me know that I’m on the right track and would encourage me to keep going. He has been my supporter and has constantly challenged me to normalize my thinking and have faith in my understanding. This journey is just beginning, but I’m in a completely different space than I was a year ago. I am grateful to Mike for his compassion and have the motivation to keep moving forward.

Dr. Koren and Brighter Life Therapy have been an absolute joy to work with, and helped me significantly in navigating difficult relationships and engaging in guided and active problem solving to encourage a positive and optimistic, but realistic, mentality in the face of high expectations and a challenging work situation (a difficult graduate program). I highly recommend working with Mike and the team at Brighter Life. In-person and tele-therapy sessions are both convenient and easy to arrange via the online appointment scheduling system. Regarding Dr. Koren personally, he clearly cares deeply about the health and well being of his patients, and he is excellent about providing outside perspective, delicately challenging and encouraging questioning of faulty assumption and negative mental habits, and providing ongoing support and guidance with a targeted goal of personal development and growth. He is respectful, thoughtful, caring, and empathetic, and I highly recommend working with him.
