WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Green five stars.

Cheri and her team are excellent. I recommend A Place 2 Turn to anyone who is in need of mental health, life coaching or just plain support

Peter E.
Green five stars.

Shelly is an incredible therapist who has helped me to navigate the ups and downs in my life. She has helped by providing me with positive methods that I can use in my daily life and relationships. She has been someone I can rely upon, and I always look forward to our sessions. She has an incredibly kind and respectful demeanor, and I recommend her very highly if you are looking for a safe place to do some self work.

Aria Weinberg
Green five stars.

After spending time with Dr. Cheri, my perspective related to my personal life dramas has moved from a place of self-destruction to a point where I have been able to deal with them in a mentally healthy way. She has made all the difference in my life.

David Lynch
Green five stars.

Dr Cheri is the best!!  She is a very knowledgeable and  caring therapist. I always look forward  to sessions with her. She's helped me process things in new ways and in our marital counseling, she  has an amazing gift of discerning the not so obvious and can read between the lines so well.   She tells it like it is and I love that about her.   Kind, honest, professional, and great at what she does. Highly recommend!!

Dr. Cheri and her team at A Place to Turn do excellent and important work. She's also an accomplished author and her staff offers compassion and guidance in a safe environment.

Dan Kahn
Green five stars.

Finding a good therapist is far more difficult than finding a good medical doctor.  I found two great ones at A Place To Turn — Kristen and Cheri.  They both have helped me immeasurably.  Thanks to you both

Terry Ahern

Dr. Cheri runs a cutting edge practice, while delivering warmth and a healing journey. Her team is dedicated to community wellness.

Diane Knudsen
Green five stars.

My husband and I met with Amy Gandin, she is FANTASTIC. She made the whole process much easier. She’s very busy and difficult to get in with but if you can do. Anyone who has ever participated in any kind of psychological therapy will know she’s an unusual find. Truly great.

Candice Brittain
Green five stars.

The nicest people offering a wide range of treatments and services to help those in need. From first contact, they are friendly and supportive and eager to determining the appropriate care.

Mark Knudsen
Green five stars.

This is an amazing place- very caring staff, extremely professional. The pandemic and a family of five squeezed together doing work and virtual schooling caused lots of fighting, and we got the help we needed here. Can’t recommend enough!

Rachel Spalding
Green five stars.

Friendly and relaxing environment. My experience with my counselor was exactly what I needed right now. I would recommend her to anyone!

Sheri Plowman

Dr. Cheri and her team are incredibly knowledgeable and are always looking for more ways they can help others.
