Lakeside Center for Behavioral health has been a life changer for many of my patients. I send numerous patients to this clinic for cognitive and behavior therapy. I send my patients here for anxiety and other dermatologic conditions that involve obsessive compulsive disorders, trichotillomania (hair pulling), and skin picking (excoriation disorders). Our community is so lucky to have a nationally recognized specialist such as Renae Reinardy.
Both Miracle and Nicole are amazing! They treat you as if you're their only client. Both provide continuous support for whatever the need may be. I can't say enough about how happy and appreciative I am to these two. They're the best!
