Axis Alternative Mental Health and Wellness Center

After years of sub-​par, awful mental health care experiences I was resigned to being treated in almost barbaric and violent ways by every therapist I saw in this city. I just started to see a person referred to me by the Axis Center and I really could not be more delighted. I can’t vouch for everyone, by I was referred to a girl named Raylen. Actually woman, she is just so full of energy I think I said girl. The best part is the utter respect she has given me, her sensitive nature, her skill – of course, but she cares so much that when I was having a rough holiday moment, she was there via text and phone to help me through (for over an hour). There is an actual reasonable sliding scale, and they will work with you to make sure you can afford the care you need. This is probably why they are located in the South Bronx. I was leery at first, but it really is 45 minutes from anywhere in manhattan and an hour from mid brooklyn thanks to express service. But, again, I can only attest to the reasonable sliding scale (i.e cheap!), and the care I receive from Raylen. I am sure everyone is great though. There seems to be a real emphasis on quality care.
I am also starting to see Raylen at her private practice based in «energy work and holistic healing.» This is a big part of what we are already doing, but I feel like more would be better. The website is
. I will let you know how it goes!
