If I could give Dr. Durana 10 stars, I would! His mind body approach to mental health has been incredibly helpful in addressing some points about my life where I felt I needed to make a change. He is very attentive, understanding, and hands on in a great way - we always end up talking about exactly what I've wanted to address. He has been incredibly instrumental in helping me cope with anxiety, depression and relationship issues, which has allowed me to learn more about how to be more understanding both towards other people and myself in everyday situations. He is a true healer, I recommend seeing Dr. Durana! More...

I saw Carlos for almost a year, honestly he's the best therapist I have come across so far. He doesn't just ask me a question then follow my answer up with another question like most therapists do. ..he listens carefully to what I'm saying and offers amazing insights or suggestions, always feel like I leave his office with another tool to try out… another way to help me deal with my issues. I feel like he genuinely cares about me and my well being and always tries to make me feel like a priority in a very professional way.If you are looking for someone to help you, I highly recommend Dr Carlos Durana.

Dr. Carlos Durana's counseling and mind-body approaches have helped me with stress caused by a cancer diagnosis. My counseling sessions with Carlos help me organize my thoughts. They also calm me as I determine the next steps in my cancer treatment. Carlos is very warm, empathetic, and an excellent, active listener. I know he cares about me and my wellness, and I highly recommend him. More...
