TOP 3 DAVID SAAVEDRA, LCSW - MARRIAGE & FAMILY WELLNESS CENTER REVIEWS
I’ve worked with David now on 2 separate occasions over a span of 10 years. He has helped tremendously with my anxiety and depression and OCD. I recommend Dr. saavedra to anyone struggling. He’s a great listener and patient when at times you feel completely lost.
In the past ten years, I’ve had the opportunity to meet many counselors, and David is able to see multiple perspectives, while maintaining objectivity. David is a very talented counselor and when walking out of a session you feel hope to any situation you are facing .
David is amazing! I recommended him highly and I’m forever grateful for him. He responds quickly and is always available if needed.

TOP 3 GREGORY SCOTT SPARROW, ED.D, LPC-S, LMFT - DREAMSTAR COUNSELING AND SUPERVISION REVIEWS
I think your greatest genius lies in the gift of linking dream to archetype to personal story in a way no else even comes close to mastering, in large part because of your great depth and repertoire of symbols, myths, and meanings and ability to pull it all together in real time. - M.T
I’d like to thank you for allowing me to join DreamStar since Practicum. I have enjoyed my time working with DreamStar clients. I appreciate that DreamStar exposed us to other cultures due to it’s reach. That is experience I did not receive in any of my other sites. - L.A.
I want to tell you that I felt unexpectedly light and relieved after our conversation, and that feeling has remained with me since then. It's as though something has been cleared...I am sure now that I did the right thing in seeking your help. - T. Z
I would absolutely love to work with you at Dreamstar. I loved your teaching methods as well as the FiveStar Method of dreamwork.. It would be an absolute honor to work under your supervision if you will have me.- D.M.

TOP 3 HEATH SMITH IV, LPC, NCC, LCDC, ADC III, MAC REVIEWS
When people say that someone has a heart of gold, they're referring to people like Heath Smith. I've sat in front of over half a dozen therapists over the last several years trying to find someone who could genuinely help me. Through depression and anxiety, major life changes, loss, love, career moves, and everything in between, Heath has been there to help me through it all. In my experience, many therapists do too much listening and don't provide enough tools to help their clients. Heath on the other hand, genuinely engages with you and provides authentic and useful tools to help get you through whatever issues you could be having. Additionally, I've never felt like I was being judged or treated by an emotionless robot. I'm able to be very human with him and he is very human with me. It's hard for me to find success in a setting that feels too clinical, and Heath provides a very comfortable environment for everyone who walks in his doors. After a few months of seeing him, I genuinely started getting relief from anxiety just by walking into his office. I've been seeing Heath for a year and a half now and will continue to be a patient of is for the foreseeable future. Outside of his office, he has reached out to check on me on numerous occasions when I was dealing with something particularly difficult. You will be genuinely cared for by this man and given the help you need. I recommend him to everyone that needs help and have personally recommended him to friends and family.
An amazing therapist with a solid foundation - perfect mix of a understanding heart coupled with empowering patients to take personal responsibility He helped my family member immensely when he was struggling with depression and self medicating. I recommend him 110%!!
Honestly i truly believe Heath is one of the best therapist in the country. You get what you put into it thank you Heath.
