Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ilissa Banhazl. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

It seems I am a troubled soul, Illisa offers incredible insight without judgement to my situation. Truly appreciative the honest and helpful responses to my clearly disturbed mind.

Ilissa has been great for my partner and I!! We started therapy about a month ago and have been consistent. Her demeanor and openness has been great for the both of us individually. I think working with someone who can see both people involved and allow for us to both feel validated, safe, and a sense of growth is vital to a great therapist. We are working with the tools she's set in place for us and can feel and see the difference in our relationship. We are looking forward to continue growing and learning with Ilissa. We encourage anyone to give her a chance to work with you.
