Hollye Grayson, MFT

My fiancé and I met with Hollye several times for premarital counseling and it was a great experience. We did not have any specific issues that we were concerned about but she did help us identify and discuss areas that, in her experience, have been problematic for other couples. It was exactly what we were looking for. Our schedules were erratic and we had to meet a bit erratically and there were a couple of instances where it seemed she had confused us for another couple, but after some refreshing we were able to get down to it. We really liked that she offered a free consultation meeting to discuss her process and make sure would be a good fit for us. After meeting with Hollye we feel like we have reduced the chance of possible negative ‘surprises’ in the future.

My fiancé and I began and completed pre-​marital counseling with Hollye and she is absolutely amazing! She actively listens to what each person has to say, she makes excellent observations and never made either of us feel uncomfortable. She asks appropriate and thought provoking questions. She offers valid insight and is extremely personable. Hollye was very accommodating with our hectic work/​personal schedules. I highly recommend Hollye’s services !

I wanted to update my previous review. I wish I could add more stars.
I continue to see Hollye on a weekly basis. My situation may be more complex than others so don’t take that as a sign of her skill. She is fantastic.
I have made tremendous strides in her care. My life changed dramatically for the better, I became myself again: a strong, self-​caring, independent person again.
Life changed for me again and I back-​slid. I had a problem (am having) with my medications that treat my physical disorders. It has severely impacted my mental health. Hollye has been by my side unwaveringly.
Her willingness to work with my medical team, to work around the limitations this crises has put on my ability to travel to her office, her guidance and encouragement has kept me from hiding away.
If you are in crises, not the kind that requires 911, the kind that requires someone to talk to, someone to guide you through the valleys that sometimes come with the peaks and winding trails of life in a complex world: Hollye is without a doubt a trusted go to.

What can I say? Hollye is fantastic. I had a really bad experience with another therapist and Hollye welcomed me with an open mind, geniune concern and compassion.
Hollye remembers the details. She holds me accountable. And when no one else will listen, I know that Hollye will no only do that, she will support me. She emails me between appointments to check on me– I can’t tell you how much it helps to know that SOMEone sees how much pain I am in and that I need to be checked on.
I am going through an incredibly challenging and difficult time in my life and thanks to Hollye, I have hope that I will figure it all out. I wouldn’t say I look forward to our sessions, but it’s such a relief to know that she’s there and I can talk to her. About anything.
I have had numerous issues with health insurance, but Hollye has worked with me to find a solution so that I can continue to see her. When I first brought up the idea that I may not be able to see her anymore because of financial reasons, she did not accept it. She offered to help.
She offers a free consultation — why doesn’t everyone do that?
Hollye’s office is attached to her home. I thought it very odd at first and did not think I would feel comfortable. But that all disappeared as soon as I sat down. I completely forgot I was in someone’s home. Hollye is professional.
I highly and whole-​heartedly recommend her.

I found Hollye is be extremely helpful during a time when I was going through some major life transitions: marriage, moving to a new city and starting a family. She was always welcoming, patient and great at listening to my rambling monologues.
She also went the extra mile by emailing me to see how I was doing after my move to another city. I’m grateful for all her help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone else.

Can’t recommend Hollye enough. She got my fiancé and I through a very difficult period in our lives and also provided provided premarital counseling. She was very flexible about our appointments, which was helpful since I work full time and my fiancé was in school full time. We had seen a pre-​marital counselor before seeing Hollye and stopped going to the initial counselor as we felt it was a waste of time. Hollye is absolutely not a waste of time. She is smart and honest and my fiancé and I never felt judged even when talking about very difficult subjects. I honestly am not sure we would still be getting married if it weren’t for her counsel.

I’ve had many friends who have gotten married in recent years (it’s the age, I suppose), and many of them have highly recommended going to a few premarital counseling sessions before the big day. Most of them were required to because they were getting married in a church, but my fiancé and I aren’t having a religious ceremony, so we set about finding a counselor on our own. Understandably, it’s pretty hard to find many in-​depth reviews about a marriage counselor on Unilocal,so although Hollye didn’t have very many on her page, we decided to take a chance. And we’re so glad we did!
She made us feel comfortable from the first time we met her. Important for someone like me, who had never been to any kind of therapist and was feeling nervous about putting it all out there! Her sessions were really about her asking the right important questions of us, having us talk them out, and giving real-​life advice and input (but not too much). At the end of my first session I gushed to my friends that I think I might get addicted to therapy! In fact, although she sent us on our way after 4 sessions or so, we’ve decided to keep it up with less frequent visits even after our wedding. Kind of like regularly scheduled maintenance!
We have yet to hear back from our insurance company about how much of it is covered but she seems to be a pro with the stuff and has always been very responsible about giving us the proper forms as well. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for couples or individual therapy for any reason!

Hollye has been a client with me for years and she’s the best ! So easy to talk to and a great person. Always great to get marriage and kid advise as she knows how to keep a marriage going and raise kids herself. I recommend her to my clients all the time. I know she’d be good for them because she knows what she’s doing.

Hollye Grayson is an outstanding therapist. She is extremely professional, genuine and friendly. She can help you see things and situations in different angles without being judgmental. I started seeing Hollye over nine months ago (on a weekly basis) because my OB (who is a renowned Beverly Hills physician) highly recommended her.
Hollye has helped me through a very stressful pregnancy and helped me cope with extremely high levels of anxiety. I am still a patient of Hollye’s even after giving birth to my son. I highly recommend seeking advice from Hollye for whatever difficult life situations you are experiencing.

Hollye has been a tremendous resource and help to me throughout a huge life changing transition I have been going through. She is honest, patient, understanding, and a great listener. Hollye gives really practical advice and follows up on that advice the following week.
She is very flexible on multiple levels. When I found her I was disappointed to find out that she was not «in network». Hollye immediately worked with me to find a reasonable rate and worked with my insurance to figure out what exactly they would cover.
Hollye has also agreed to see me at a time that is very convenient for me and my schedule and she works out of more than one office that so there are multiple options depending on your location.
All in all, I highly recommend Hollye Grayson.
