An amazing center for anxiety and other mental health issues. Robert Mclellarn is a highly regarded and skilled mental health professional. I have never had a better experience with a therapist before. I would recommend Robert Mclellarn (Dr. Bob) to anybody seeking assistance in their mental health journey.
As someone who has struggled with crippling anxiety and OCD for my entire life and gone through numerous therapists...I can confidently say, now at age 38, that I have overcome 90% of my struggles. The only reason for this, is because a few years back, I found Dr. Bob and the group therapy sessions he offers. The exposure therapy he walked me through for my OCD was hard, but it was the best decision I have made so far in my life (other than marrying my husband and having my children). The skills he taught me are invaluable & I will carry them with me always. I am a completely new person. I am at ease, relaxed and can handle fears as they come my way. I am a better wife, a better mom and a better friend. I owe ALL of that to Dr. Bob, group therapy and the Anxiety and Panic Treatment Center. Without taking the leap and going to see him, I would still be in a ball of panic and fear every day. I cannot tell you how free I feel. If you are reading this and experiencing similar struggles, I see you. Please take this as a sign that you should call Dr. Bob. He changed my life, and I will be forever grateful.
Dr. McCellarn is compassionate, professional, and deeply knowledgable. He is, in simple terms, an expert (with decades of experience) in OCD treatment. I have worked with Dr. McClellarn for about 9 years now, and I can say that, when it comes to OCD, you want to work with someone who is an expert in that particular disorder and field. Before I met with Dr. McClellarn, I had OCD nuances and subtleties that were overlooked or misunderstood by well-meaning, but less specialized professionals. Dr. McClellarn was able to rectify these issues, and for the first time, really get at the heart of the shame, confusion, and life-limiting pain I was experiencing through my OCD. This disorder makes it hard to reach out, and it's easy to feel too ashamed to seek help. If you are looking for treatment for OCD-- treatment with compassion and skill, rooted in experience and understanding-- I would whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Robert McCellarn.
30 years in business, amazing service.
After having various experiences with different counselors and doctors, I found my most success and confidence through this particular treatment center. Dr. McLellarn has the knowledge and years of experience that allows himself to help people that need more specialized care concerning specific phobias, panic disorders and OCD. If you are struggling with any of these forms of anxiety, there are excellent methods & techniques that, with a great therapist (as I had), can be utilized to change one's life. My expectations and personal goals were achieved, therefore, I would recommend this to anyone looking for help.
I felt as if my anxiety diagnosis was diminished did not find the interaction professional
Some of the best help I’ve gotten. They are super patient and have helped me work through my issues with anxiety and OCD really well.
Very respectful, honest and helpful.
