S.M.,I have worked with Leigh Kolodny-Kraft for many years and she has proven to be one of the most insightful and compassionate therapists I have come across in my 15+ years in this field. Leigh always puts her client's needs first, making herself available when needed. She is well versed and trained in topics ranging from substance abuse/addiction to trauma issues; sex addiction to mental health issues. Rest assured, the patient's needs will be accurately assessed and addressed by this highly skilled therapist and her team of professionals at the Kraft Group.

I have been to many therapists and shopped around. I finally found my home at the Kraft group. I have never felt so respected and safe as I have there. I was sent there by a friend after I complained to them about my previous bad experiences. I was hesitant at first because honestly a lot of therapists/social workers or whatever the degree are a dime a dozen and don’t really care. I never feel that here. I really like Leigh. I understand she stated the place and I have been so impressed with her knowledge and honest care. You can see it in the other therapists as wel. David goes out of his way to help and is the first man I have ever felt comfortable talking to. He is so calming. It has been very good for me to be in a place where I can feel safe around a man. He is working with me doing EMDR and Leigh is working with me through my trauma. The Kraft group is my safe place. I never feel judged or unsafe. The best practice ever.

I have been very happy at the Kraft group. I have worked with breanna and find her to be an amazing therapist. She has a strong grasp on every aspect of counseling and can work someone through family issues to addiction to depression or even marital stress. I had a positive experience from day one. For one the office is not only gorgeous but very relaxing and a real calming environment. Everyone that works there are helpful and very warm. I love the team approach so I can meet with breanna and my husband can meet with David and we can set things up at the same time so we only need to worry about child care once. I k ow my husband is crazy about david who has helped him through a lot of anxiety and anger issues and I could not have gotten this far without a breanna. She is a true gem.

I have nothing but positive things to say about all the therapists at The Kraft Group.I left awhile back because I was not happy with my therapist but that therapist is no longer there so I decided to return. I have worked with both Leigh and Stephanie dealing with betrayal issues. Leigh did an amazing job helping me work through the trauma of my husbands affairs and Stephanie has done a great job helping my husband and I learn how to communicate better with one another and work through issues in a more productive way. I feel silly for leaving in the first place but I did not want to have to see the old therapist. I found out through the grapevine that she is no longer employed there so I returned right away. I am very glad that I did because I have gained so much from the practice. The thing that stands out the most to me is that everyone currently there is so professional and really cares. I really feel valued and safe in couples sessions. I have been able to work through my anger and move forward. I also appreciate the fact that I am provided an opportunity to really work on my stuff as is my husband. I really could not stand constant worksheets. I felt like i could just buy a book. However, the therapy I now get is the best and without it I bet I would be divorced by now. You guys saved us.

My experience at the Kraft Group has been great so far. I had called inquiring about therapy and the warm welcome to services helped me feel confident in asking for help. I had first spoke to Leigh, who walked me through the therapy process, to which after my assessment I was transitioned to work with the Clinical Director, Stephanie. Because of the dedication these therapists provide, I feel able to overcome my struggles.

I have worked professionally with Leigh and her team several times. We have worked collaboratively to ensure the clients receive the best and most appropriate care. It has always gone smoothly. We really enjoy working with her and would recommend the Kraft Group.

I have been through many therapy practices due to my daughters issues. I have never been as impressed as I have been with this practice. The practice is so professional and they all go above and beyond for the clients. I am so impressed and feel so comfortable working with them. Not once have I felt judged as a parent or felt that my daughter was being judged. I have very high standards and they have surpassed them all. We are 9/11 survivors and have never received such amazing trauma treatment as we have here. Thank you so much.

Leigh is an outstanding therapist who combines compassion and skill to help her clients heal. She has dedicated her career to helping individual who have suffered from addiction and trauma find their path to recovery. She understands that not one size fits all and she approaches each client as an individual, meeting them where they are. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a consummate professional that cares deeply for those that are suffering.

Leigh has dedicated her professional life to helping individuals and families deal with the disease of addiction. When no one else is able to reach my child, she can. Leigh's work with the individual extends to the entire family. The trust she builds with each and every person she works with is based on the compassion she feels for those in her care, and she goes above and beyond on a daily basis. As difficult a time as this has been for our family, Leigh's dedication to all our well being gives us continued hope and support.

Leigh has endless dedication to her clients. Our family spent years grappling with the disease of addiction and worked with many professionals in the field, but was unable to achieve any level of stability. With Leigh's patient guidance, and thorough knowledge of addiction, she helped me understand my role in the family dynamic. I learned to how support my family, while setting the boundaries necessary to live a healthier, more sane life.
My family is in a much better place today, thanks to Leigh and her Group's, understanding and compassion.
