I’ve had great experiences with both Heather and Dr. Musec! I’ve seen Dr. Musec for years and recently transitioned to Heather for insurance purposes in recent months. Both Heather and Dr. Musec have taken the time to get to know me and, in doing so, have given me confidence in my plan of care. I highly recommend them—they are great at what they do and are lovely people!

Dr. Musec was very knowledgeable and caring during my visit. She recommended a few options for my stress and anxiety. After three weeks I can tell you my stress and anxiety has diminished greatly. I highly recommend Dr. Musec if you want up-to-date solutions for your mental health.

Taking the first step to seek mental health services was very challenging, but from the moment I called, the welcoming voices at the front desk made all the difference. They patiently walked me through the entire process, explaining insurance and how visits work, which really put me at ease. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience starting this journey.

I had an amazing experience at Here & Now following a bad concussion from a severe car accident. I participated in neurofeedback, one of the many services they provide, and could not have asked for a better provider. Every interaction I had with the staff members was a pleasant one. I’ve recommended Here & Now to friends and family and will continue to do so!
