Dr. JoAnne Barge 11980 San Vicente Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90049

"I was a client of Dr. JoAnne Barge and was unfortunately disappointed with her services. While she is experienced, I found her rushing to negative judgements too quickly. Also, during the sessions, she was mostly quiet with little direction. At first, I thought this is because we are still getting to know, but it never got any better. I am not a fan of therapy where the client does the vast majority of the talking."

"Dr. Barge is amazing. She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience. I can't thank her enough for the level of understanding and compassion with which she approached things. Her insights had a profound impact on me. I recommend her without hesitation."

"I have never had a more positive experience in therapy than I have had with Dr. Barge. I came to her at a particularly low point in my personal and professional life. She was always frank in her feedback, providing me with professional guidance in how to better my life, my relationships, and my career. She also made excellent recommendations for outside reading to continue my progress outside of our sessions. I can't say enough about how appreciative I am of what she has done for me."

"Dr. Barge is a highly competent and respected professional. I would recommend her when it comes to the field of substance abuse, treatment and prevention. I have a friend she treated for a substance abuse issue which spanned over 40 years. Her knowledge and ability to provide the necessary steps, as well as treatment to get my friend on the road to recovery were invaluable. Because of her involvement, my friend has been able to lead a much more productive and fulfilling life. His relationships are also more meaningful, now that he is no longer self-medicating. I highly recommend Dr. Barge to anyone experiencing abuse or dependency issues. If you utilize her services your chances of recovery will be significantly improved."

"Dr. Barge has been a solid presence in my life for many years now. When I first came to her, it was in desperation. Her guidance has helped me lead a life in which I am no longer hiding, but instead am more truthful about my own desires and needs, and more willing and able to share that with others. She has always treated me with respect and dignity, and has always been supremely professional. She knew what I needed at what moments, and she always knew how to help me help myself. If you're willing to put in the work, you will see amazing results with Dr. Barge. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat."
