It Makes All the Difference to Send Patients Here
Our primary care office has referred patients to EBTCS since 2005. We consider this group to be one of the best mental health practices in the Pacific Northwest.The psychotherapists here are uniformly of high caliber and we get typically get rave reviews back from patients who have gone here for care. When it comes to mental health care, there is a wide range of quality, from really quite poor to excellent. It makes sense to be at one of the best places possible. It can make all the difference.
