Client Testimonials

Dr Bollinger was my therapist for nearly ten years as I worked through chronic depression, suicidal impulses, and the debilitating effects of a disease. Dr. Bollinger was a lifeline through it all. He not only helped me navigate through the darkest decade of my life, he taught me the skills I needed to keep my footing and find my way out of periods of darkness moving forward. I genuinely feel he saved my life.

I saw Dr. Bollinger at the VA for over five years during which time he helped me gain a better understanding of myself and behavioral tendencies. His approach of asking insightful questions where I came up with the answers was astute and non-threatening. He gave me praise for progress made and strategies that worked for me. I felt supported and am totally appreciative of the therapy and his professionalism.

I was a patient of Dr. Bollinger for over a decade. In that time, Dr. Bollinger has proven to be an excellent counselor, advisor, and confidant.

 

My time spent with Dr. Bollinger in many instances helped me not only to deal with my experiences when I was overseas serving as a Marine in Vietnam, but in my personal life. He always made me feel, and he was always very consistent in this, that I was the only patient he had, his number one patient. It was very heartwarming to work with him. Not only was he my therapist but he also became one of my closest friends in life. He always approached me with understanding, warmth, and concern for my wellbeing.

 

I would think about the things he taught me, the tools he gave me for coping with life’s challenges, from session to session. I cherish his words of wisdom, of helping me to consider different perspectives, of painting word pictures for me that enabled me to understand why I am the way I am and who I am. Besides myself, my family has benefited from my significant progress over the years.

 

In addition, Dr. Bollinger has been very pleasant, amiable, and attentive. There were times during our discussions when Dr. Bollinger would bring up things that we had discussed many years earlier, which demonstrated to me that he always paid attention to even the smallest detail. This would bring me even closer to him, and would help me to open up to him with profound trust, in a way that no one else has done with me, including my wife. I already miss Dr. Bollinger, and will never forget our friendship.

 

Lastly, Dr. Bollinger projected a true enjoyment of, and pride in, his work.

I am a 100% Disabled Viet Nam Veteran, and I am honored to provide my testimonial on behalf of Dr. Bollinger who provided me support at the VA.  Over the 12 years I worked with Dr. Bollinger, I have overcome drug addiction, homelessness, and depression from losing my child and my wife due to both individuals succumbing to complications of Multiple Sclerosis. The benefits of being in his care strengthened my character. Evidence of the psychological reward received as his ongoing patient care allowed me to rise out and above my mental lows to heights of achievement. I have successfully written a book, married again, and above all, I am experiencing a life that was unimaginable in the state I was in at the beginning of our meetings.

 

Although I understood the circumstances between doctor and patient, life for me in his care became a personal blessing, for which I am thankful.

 

I want you to know that I respect and appreciate Dr. Bollinger for his outstanding professional care.

​

I became a client of Dr. B during, and because of, the '08 economic downturn when my life also took a drastic downturn. I was in a suicidal state of mind; in need of the caring, understanding, frank and objective perspectives Dr. B offered. After many years of supportive suggestions and assessments, we agreed I had overcome the many real, and perceived, obstacles in my life. Dr. B wasn't so much a crutch for me to lean on during that untenable period of my life, as he was a ladder to assist my productive climb out of a desperate, dire situation.

 

I give him a huge thumb‘s up and wholeheartedly recommend his services!
