Testimonials

We’re honored by these kind words. Please see what people are saying about the counselors at Evergreen Counseling through these unsolicited client/professional kind words and praise.

“I referred a dear friend in crisis to Evergreen Counseling, and she told me that her experience was life-changing, and exactly what she needed at that difficult moment in time. I wasn't surprised at all--I've known the director of the center, Annie Wright, for years. Annie is an expert in relational trauma and recovery, a human who truly cares, and I knew that any therapist she hired would be top-notch and more than qualified to help. You can feel confident when reaching out to Evergreen Counseling that you're going to receive the care that you need.”

Yelp Review

“Founder Annie Wright is really doing something special here. EC clinicians offer a superb standard of care for clients, especially for folks who have experienced trauma. You can absolutely trust that you will be cared for well at EC as both a client and employee. For y'all EMDR clinicians- this place is such a unique gem! I have never encountered another center that provides more professional development opportunities to their clinicians.”

Yelp Review

“I became aware of Evergreen Counseling in 2016 through a powerful public film event that the founder, Annie Wright, held on women's body image. Ever since then, I have followed Annie's work through her genius blog and taken her online course, Hard Families, Good Boundaries. Annie has worked exceptionally hard to build a client-focused practice comprised of well-educated and highly competent therapists. I know this because I am a licensed therapist myself. Anyone looking for exceptional therapy in the Bay Area, should look no further than Evergreen. They will pair you with the perfect therapist to walk alongside you in your journey of growth and healing.”

Yelp Review

“It took me quite some time to find the right the therapist. One who understands what is it like to own a company and could validate the exhaustion I've gone through to start it from the ground up. I'm [sic] am relieved that I have found a center that has also been able to help me process situations that have occurred in my past. Highly recommend Evergreen if you have not found the right place yet.”

Yelp Review

“If you are looking for individual counseling, couples, family therapy or trauma work including EMDR, I can't recommend Evergreen Counseling group enough. EC director Annie Wright is an expert in the trauma field and related concerns. This is why I referred my sister and family to her and her group. They have been able to participate in therapy as individuals as well as a couple and a family, addressing trauma, related anxiety and depression, even family and parenting concerns. We are all seeing the difference as their family heals. My sister often talks about the individualized and thorough care they are receiving. While they are not new to therapy, they never received this caliber of treatment. I am thrilled though not surprised to know this team keeps the bar high. Thank you!”

Yelp Review

“I have worked with Annie Wright for a number of years, and consider her (and her team) a valuable referral resource for a variety of counseling needs. Annie has worked with my husband and I in a counseling capacity throughout our marriage and I consider her the most talented, caring, exceptional counselor. I am grateful for her wisdom, humor, empathy, and relatability, and recommend Evergreen Counseling often and wholeheartedly.”

Annie and her team are professional, kind and caring and they will make you feel at ease from the first call. You're in good hands here, just like your clients are in good hands with you.”

Yelp Review

“I can't recommend Evergreen Counseling highly enough. The founder and director, Annie Wright, is one of the most trauma-informed and skilled therapists I have ever met.

“I lived on east bay [sic] a few years back and had a hard time finding a good therapist until I went to Evergreen Counseling. I was lucky to get in quickly and Beth was very helpful with her insights and helped me to dig more deeply into what was going on and how to create change. I met the owner Annie more than once and was very impressed with the operation she has built over time. I now refer my friends there due to their thoughtful clinical approach that's backed by research.”

Google Review

“[She] is one of the warmest, sharpest, and most professional clinicians I have come across. She is immediately disarming, and genuinely supportive and encouraging of others. I discovered [her] through a mutual interest in helping folks heal from complex trauma, and her expertise and passion was palpable from the first moment of contact. She is an exceptional clinician, writer and community advocate. Her knowledge and understanding of trauma is profound. I consider her one of the top experts in EMDR and complex trauma, and she is on the very top of my referral list!”

Yelp Review

“I am currently on the search for a therapist and Annie was extremely supportive on my journey. She was available, curious, and supportive. While I'm not a client, I was taken aback by her consistent communication with me as I navigated dealing with my insurance. I would highly recommend her services.”

Yelp Review

“[She] helped me - to put it in her words - "fully step into" my life, after helping me escape from a very unhealthy relationship. If I hadn't moved overseas (a huge life decision that her sessions assisted with immensely), I would have continued my weekly sessions with her indefinitely for my overall mental health. Highly, highly recommended!”

Yelp Review

“I saw [her] after a particularly intense breakup when I was struggling to reorient myself while dealing w/a tenuous living situation and difficult (but rewarding) job. She was amazing. A complete joy to speak to. She met me where I was emotionally and logically rather than trying to force me to conform to her world view (an issue I had with previous therapists and counsellors [sic]). Her empathy and care felt tangible and created a safe space for me to share and feel heard/understood. Honestly, if I had the money I'd continue to see her weekly for the rest of my life. Just a great addition to my overall wellbeing even after the initial issue was addressed.”

Yelp Review

“I have worked with [her] for several years now, and have the utmost respect and appreciation for her in her practice. I find her communication style to be warm when needed, funny when appropriate, diligent in timing, and direct when most helpful. I consider her one of my more helpful resources in life, and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of guidance, support, continuity, or change.”

"I’m no rookie to counseling and know how hard it can be to find a great therapist. I was fortunate to have found Evergreen counseling for my daughter who moved to Berkeley to attend college. She loves her therapist and they’ve really helped her over the years while she’s navigated college and being away from home. It’s reassuring to me that she has someone she connects with to talk with as needed."

My advice: don't wait - reach out and get the help you deserve from an amazing counseling center. Evergreen Counseling."
