In my experience, truly exceptional clinicians are rare. Brett Leifson is one of them. He has a quality that defies the usual categories of “professional” and “personable” — somehow both deeply human and impeccably precise. From the first conversation, it was clear he wasn’t simply performing a role; he was listening, engaging, and genuinely caring. Brett carries an intelligence that doesn’t announce itself, it reveals itself through empathy, flexibility, and an almost uncanny ability to read where a person is at that exact... read more

I have been seeing Brett since January. Brett has been fantastic at helping and ensuring to find a treatment plan that was perfect for me. He helped me by listening and ensuring that his recommendations were based solely on my needs. Over 10 months later, I continue to improve and be better and better everyday. Thanks, Brett!

I never leave google reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experiences and how transformational my life has been since meeting with Dr. Rice and Brett Leifson regularly over the past year. Almost a year ago to the day, I found myself more often than not struggling to function as a normal human with the amount of stress, anxiety, and pressure I placed on myself to be a "good person". To the point where I had forgotten how to love myself, and was starting to think that this was just the way life was after a certain point. ... read more
