Dr. Herrera Silva is an expert at his craft. He cares deeply about his clients and listens intently. Dr. H is very professional during our sessions & can even turn a pretty bad day into a few extra laughs during our hour.
The results in my own life & my expectations for therapy have been wildly exceeded by Dr. Herrera Silva, and I can truthfully say it’s been a life changing experience.
Initially I told him I would only be here for 8 weeks. But after spending the last 12 weeks working with Dr. H, I don’t see a future where therapy isn’t part of my life.

Doctor Herrera’s appointments are something I look forward to. He listens to me and really dives deep into my feelings, and why I feel certain ways. Highly recommended him to anyone trying therapy for the first time, or a regular. He helps all walks of life!

Dr. Silva is fantastic! He uses a very empathetic approach, and always makes sure to stay updated on how you're feeling and what you'd like to discuss in his sessions. He has been very helpful in finding the right strategies and tools to create/maintain strong growth.
