Incredibly unprofessional- she was always late and then on our second or third appointment she just never showed up. I literally never heard from her again, I sent her about four emails and then finally just sent her one asking to cancel all of our future appointments. I had run out of my prescription the day of this appt, thank goodness I was able to get an emergency refill until I found another doc.
Told me I was taking my medication early in the day which is why Id get incredibly unwell at night and that I didnt need to up my dosage, that I just needed to deal with the depression and

Incredibly un-professional. She was late to my video appointment and I had to email her to join. This appointment was a my first appointment with her and as I hadn't been to a Physiatrist in over 15 years I did not know how to approach it. She was very standoff-ish and did not see like she wanted to talk. After only 10 minutes, she said she was unable to help and when I was asking her if I was going to be charged, she hung up the video call. EXTREMELY un-professional.

Dr. Carp is an exceptional doctor, no matter your situation or your needs. I was apprehensive about starting medical interventions for my anxiety but Dr. Carp relieved all of my concerns. I was surprised to find a prescriber who spent time getting to know what my underlying issues were and how she could help to improve my quality of life both with and without medication. When I was ready to find a medication, Dr. Carp walked me through all of my options, laying out plans A, B, and C and involved me in the decision-making process. She was exceptionally responsive when I had concerns, saw me in her

Dr. Carp has been a great help to me. I'd been seeing a different therapist for almost 10 years before her--the kind of doctor who threw medication at me like a guinea pig. Thanks to that doctor's treatment I'm dependent on several medications that are not helping me at all. Dr. Carp immediately recognized the problems with my prescriptions, and has been very helpful and knowledgeable in transitioning me to medicine that can actually help me.
Interpersonally, Dr. Carp is warm, thoughtful, and funny. She's very caring and has offered me great encouragement. My only complaint is that we get into

Dr. Carp truly is amazing and has helped me through some of the toughest times in my life to date. I came to her a complete and utter mess back in the Fall and have been seeing her weekly ever since. I leave my appointments feeling empowered and at ease and never have I felt judged or uncomfortable in our sessions together.
Dr. Carp is wonderful at listening and explaining things to the finest detail and has such a beautiful way of communicating to ensure you feel heard. She has helped me find the right treatments for what I am going through and has taken the time to follow up with me to ensure

Dr. Carp is everything I needed in a Psychiatrist, she is warm, pleasant, funny, considerate, and compassionate...I could go on. I met Dr. Carp at the lowest point of my life. I've been working with Dr. Carp for four years now... keyword being working. It's never been one sided dialogue, she truly listens and offers her insight into helping me come to terms with my "pain" and focus on the here, the now, and the future. If you are not willing to put forth the effort in investing in yourself, no doctor will be able to help you (these days everyone expects instant results). The last four years have
