Our Success Stories

I started seeing Jesse back when they were under another name. It’s probably 6 or 7 years ago. Now that they’ve grown and have become CARENCIA, my treatment has never wavered. Though my addiction to opiates brought me to Carencia, my treatment extends beyond that. My treatment started with Jesse (..sometimes Joe), and now Sarah; what I’ve learned more than anything else is how committed the team is to their patients. Their drive for excellence in patient care and treatment is nothing short of honorable.
Thanks, Carencia!

Joseph has been a pleasure to work with and has provided me with the help I needed to get back on my feet. After working with him I feel like I am in a much better place and life has gotten easier. I would recommend Carencia for all their great work and couldn’t thank the team enough for the help they have provided me!

Christopher C.

I am a psychotherapist that has been working in the industry for 12 years, and Carencia is a standout! The level of collaboration and added consultation time, (with the clients I have referred to Jesse and team), has truly been phenomenal. When referring clients to providers for medication management, the process can often be tough, and communication between the psychiatrist/psychiatric provider and myself, can be very difficult (to say the least). With this practice, the personalized approach, and time spent with my clients to answer all questions, keep everyone informed, and provide the highest quality of care is very unique. Jesse Tucker and Carencia Mental Health are my #1 choice for referrals!!

Yancy Grimes

I would give more stars if I could. Their service is so easy to use, appointments, availability, communication, use of their virtual app. They make it simple. I have never had any issues. I have been a patient of Katie Kesterson for 2 years and she is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend them.
