Gail was my therapist for about three years and her understanding, empathy and clinical skills are a large part of why I am alive today. She is warm and caring while not allowing you to fall prey to the defensive tactics we naturally employ to protect ourselves. I cannot praise her highly enough! She accompanied me through the darkest period of my life and saw me safely to a better place for living. I am forever greatful and indebted to her. There is no finer therapist, no better treatment, no safer place to work out issues than sitting with Gail Chase. I hope you never find yourself in the grip of depression but if you find yourself needing a professional therapist and are in the Northridge area of Los Angeles Gail Chase is as competent, knowledgable and HELPFUL as they come. Thank you Gail!
