Dr. Navarro is an excellent child/adolescent psychiatrist. He is knowledgeable, compassionate, and current in the latest research regarding ADHD. He is careful about adjusting medications and is also responsive if you ever need to reach him outside of business hours. My kids trust him and so do we, as parents.
Samantha
I’ve been working with Dr. Navarro for years. He’s truly incredible in his role, and often goes above and beyond. He’s knowledgeable, insightful, kind, and patient. He’s helped me find a good balance of medications and support during my most challenging times. I couldn’t recommend Dr. Navarro enough.

ResWell customer service and spot on treatment by Dr. Anaya can’t be beat! My child has very complex disorders and ever changing chemistry, so being on top of medication needs and always working with me, as to changes I see or don’t see, is so appreciated! Dr. Anaya is a life saver!
Jane
My husband and I truly feel blessed to have Dr. Herdina as our therapist. We have had many challenges as a family; he has helped us maneuver through many rough times. We have complete confidence in his capability, expertise and integrity as a doctor.

Dr. Herdina takes the time with his patients. You feel safe and comfortable to talk to him. Makes you see things for what they truly are. Great doctor. He is definitely an asset to his profession.

Dr. Ledbetter is the best therapist I’ve ever known, she has a true gift for people and is excellent at making her patients feel heard and validated. I would recommend her to anybody I know, 10/10 would recommend her in a heartbeat.

Dr. Ledbetter has been very professional, caring and kind. I would absolutely recommend her.

Dr. Ledbetter is caring and thorough. And my daughter really responds well to her.
Jennifer
Joe has been wonderful to work with. Our son has struggled terribly with depression and anxiety and he has helped him tremendously over the course of a year. Anytime we have concerns or questions, both he and his office quickly respond via text or Zoom.
Laurel
ResWell was recommended by a friend, and we are very happy with the service they provide. Mr. Joe Garcia is very knowledgeable and thorough with my son’s health and well being. He made us aware of side effects with his previous medication, and is helping manage current and future changes.
Jill
Joe Garcia is a warm and caring professional. He thoroughly explains any questions or uncertainties and makes sure that you understand whatever he is trying to express. His approach to mental health is holistic, meaning more than just medication, and involves the whole family, since, often, it is not only the patient dealing with the mental issue.
Joe
Suzanne is wonderful. She's kind, patient, a great listener, and knows her stuff. I appreciate her so much and I recommend her in the strongest possible terms. ResWell's staff are also wonderful to work with, and I love that they have a texting system, so I'm always up to date with someone in the office.
Joshua
Suzanne Galanty and the ResWell team are, by far, the winners. Here's what we like: telehealth visits work for us better than in-person (although we prefer phone to video); the back office staff is super prompt and professional and Suzanne herself is knowledgeable, thorough, thoughtful, prompt and analytical.
David
ResWell’s approach truly is holistic as I've been offered resources and suggested supplements, opportunities to look into my specific gene and medication breakdown and further offerings from ResWell related to nutrition and meditation. I'm already seeing an improvement and feel wholly supported in getting to a better place with my ADHD.
Sarah
Ken has been an incredible support to my teens over the last few years. He is so kind and generous, and he's made a huge difference in their lives!
Anonymous
We had been unable to get my son excited about any sort of physical activity, but he loves his time with Coach Ken and looks forward to his weekly workouts. He has provided a very encouraging and supportive environment without judgment that has allowed my son to finally enjoy physical activities, as well as build up his confidence.
Anonymous
Katie demonstrates exceptional knowledge and planning when constructing her workouts for clients. She maximizes the time by designing appropriate workouts to hit both cardio and strength.
Anonymous
I look forward to my sessions with Katie every week and I’ve noticed a difference in the way I look and feel just in the month I’ve started training with her. She pushes me enough to get me out of my comfort zone and she’s super encouraging and supportive at the same time.

OCD Treatment Looks Different at ResWell
Your Family May Benefit From Our Integrative, Evidence-Based Therapies:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- CBT is an evidence-based form of psychotherapy that helps identify and address negative thought patterns contributing to OCD.
- With this treatment, you can learn to understand fears and develop effective coping skills that reduce or resolve symptoms.
- CBT can work well with other OCD treatments, including medication management and neuromodulation.
Neuromodulation
- Neurofeedback is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that shows how your brain functions so you learn how your brain reacts to specific triggers.
- Neurofeedback helps to “train” the brain without altering brain chemistry, offering you positive results without potential side effects.
- Neurostimulation for OCD can help reduce distressing or obsessive thoughts and manage compulsions.
Personalized Fitness, Nutrition, & Mindfulness Programs
- Physical well-being supports optimal mental health. You will receive expert guidance on physical activity, nutrition, and sleep as part of an OCD treatment plan.
- Our clinical dietitian will develop an effective nutritional plan for you.
- Our resiliency coaches will provide you with personalized physical activity/yoga routines, mindfulness exercises, and meditation techniques.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is obsessive-compulsive disorder?
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition characterized by a pattern of unwanted thoughts or fears (obsessions) that can lead to repetitive behaviors (compulsions). These obsessions and compulsions can interfere significantly with daily activities and cause considerable distress.
People with OCD may feel driven to perform certain actions repeatedly in response to their obsessive thoughts, like handwashing, checking things, or cleaning. These actions are often performed with the hope of preventing obsessive thoughts or making them go away. However, engaging in these compulsions brings only temporary relief, and not performing them markedly increases anxiety. Understanding OCD is key to effective treatment, which often involves a combination of therapy, medication, and holistic approaches.
What is the most effective OCD treatment?
Most patients benefit from a combination of OCD treatments personalized to their specific situation and needs, including psychotherapy and medication management. Treatment for OCD may be most effective when combined with cognitive behavioral therapy, neuromodulation, and other holistic treatment modalities. We believe integrative treatment that includes nutrition, sleep hygiene, mindfulness, and daily physical activity makes the biggest difference for patients and their families.
How do I know if I have OCD?
If you display some of the symptoms listed above and those symptoms interfere with daily life, OCD could be the cause. However, a comprehensive evaluation by an OCD treatment center like ResWell is necessary for an accurate diagnosis.
Do you accept insurance for OCD treatments?
While we do not accept insurance, we provide patients with the documentation necessary to file a claim with their insurance carriers.
Do you offer telehealth appointments for patients with OCD?
The first meeting is usually in person. We provide telehealth follow-up appointments to make treatment as easy and convenient as possible for our patients. Specific scheduling depends on the treatment plan developed with your provider.
