Lotus Therapy Group: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I cannot express enough gratitude for the care, compassion, and professionalism I have experienced here. Working with both Kendra and Emily has been truly life changing, and I can confidently say this practice has played a pivotal role in my healing journey. Kendra is, first and foremost, incredibly welcoming and warm. From the very beginning, she created a space where I felt genuinely heard, understood, and valued. As a college student navigating constant pressure, expectations, and transitions, her support has been invaluable. She has an extraordinary ability to meet me exactly where I am, no matter the situation, and guide me through it with patience and insight. Through our work together, Kendra has helped me rediscover joy in everyday life, learn how to slow down, and find balance as a perfectionist who often struggles with self compassion. Her presence alone is grounding, and her guidance has helped me grow in ways I never thought possible. Emily is equally remarkable. She is kind, knowledgeable, and brings such a genuine, uplifting energy to every session. Her warmth and fun personality make even the most difficult conversations feel safe and manageable. After years of struggling with an eating disorder, Emily has helped me rebuild trust with food and, more importantly, with myself. She has supported me in reintroducing foods I once feared and rediscovering the joy in eating without guilt or anxiety. She listens deeply, validates every concern, and consistently provides thoughtful feedback and realistic, empowering solutions. Her understanding and compassion have made an enormous difference in my recovery. Together, Kendra and Emily create an environment of true healing, one rooted in empathy, expertise, and unwavering support. I am endlessly thankful for their dedication and care, and I would highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking thoughtful, comprehensive, and genuinely life changing eating disorder treatment.
This post makes us feel so loved - thank you for sharing and we are so happy to hear you have found such a great team in Kendra and Emily! You deserve to feel that way!
Negative experience: Read this thread if you’d like to see the other side of reviews, of how a therapist working here and owner will explain how their attendance policy puts clinicians ahead of patients. My name is James, I until recent times saw Briea for therapy work. Otherwise a good therapist, that said though one thing I learned over six years of treatment with Briea though is she will cancel on her own accord as much as needed even hours before appointment. You figure therapist are human with lives too so you never question it. It’s not the same way when her patients cancel though, years of no cancellation didn’t mean anything for the few times (after multiple years into treatment) I did and figured out she’ll just drop you. Find a therapist who won’t do that to you, I fell for it and am learning this myself. Maybe for short term help, long term clearly the years of no cancellations will not help me or you. She’ll tell you at times things like “the door is always open” then hold against you cancellations even without a consistent repeated pattern. It’s easy for a therapist to find a new customer and equally as hard for a patient to find someone to restart work that had been six years in the making. As a patient, find someone who won’t give up on you, who won’t hold non repeated cancellations against you. It’s hard and I’m speaking from experience now, the idea it’s easy to restart years of work some place else. Expect same day messages of why you’re going to need to be rescheduled, and prepare to do that once or twice and be stuck finding someone to pick up when you left off. It’s money and this is a business, you get canceled on no problem the patient doesn’t matter. This is my response to the owners response. Thank you for making clear that even medical treatment is a rules for thee but not for me. That’s an extremely sad realization, never thought of treatment as the clinician being able to disregard the client and take off an unlimited amount of days. Hard to understand if you take your job serious if you don’t even care about the clients you have to be willing to take their short falls as a reason to make them find a new therapist. It’s very easy for a therapist to sit and listen and a world harder for a client to trust an unknown person with their most vulnerable life circumstances. I’d be embarrassed if I took off more days than the client or customer I serve. I’d think of it as a lack of seriousness but apparently to lotus therapy group and Briea, it’s totally ok to push a client off for far less cancellations then said clinician. I hope future clients see this for what it is, read the owners response and tell me your interpretation. Briea will tell you it’ll just be a holiday or so, far from true. I have every record of communication since before she asked me to follow her to the lotus office. Made me feel like I was a valued client, with hindsight seemingly only because I almost never cancelled in the first years at personal balance counseling. Briea will use you and your consistency until signs of financial problems show up, then make an excuse you the client need a higher level of care and use both as an excuse to throw you aside. It’s a cheap power trip at that, a heartless act of contempt toward the client. Don’t fall for it with Briea, I’m sure there are therapists out there who do the career for the right reasons, unless caring for clients isn’t the point. I’m not interested in talking to anyone from lotus outside this review. I don’t want reassurance or legalese clarity. I’m on this review thread to give future clients a fair warning from a former client who learned the hard way how a clinician will rhetorically ask you to reschedule for their needs, then burn your trust and guilt you out of treatment over non repeated attendance discrepancies of your own as the client. I deeply trusted Briea, hence why I was naive for six years and don’t want anyone to experience what I did and that’s it.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly value open communication and would like to offer some additional clarity and reassurance. On rare occasions, a clinician may need to cancel a session at the last minute due to illness, injury, or an emergency. We are also unable to predict when or the frequency of these happenings and must allow our clinicians to attend to their own life and life's needs outside of work. These situations are never taken lightly and do not occur for non-clinical reasons. We understand how disappointing or disruptive this can feel, and we do our very best to minimize any impact. Because of the nature of therapeutic work, we’re unable to substitute another clinician; however, we will always make every effort to offer alternative session times when an unexpected cancellation occurs. These practices are consistently followed by Briea and the entire Lotus Therapy Group team.
All clients receive a clear explanation of our cancellation policy at the start of care. This policy is intended to support consistency and fairness around client-initiated cancellations and does not apply in the same way to clinicians. When a client cancels with less than 24 hours’ notice—outside of documented illness, injury, or emergency—we adhere to this policy.
Sessions are discontinued only in limited and thoughtful circumstances, such as when an account is not current (with sessions resuming once payment is brought up to date), when a different level of care is clinically recommended, or when a clinician determines that the current approach is no longer the best support for a client’s needs. In these situations, clients are clearly informed of the reason and provided with appropriate recommendations for continued care.
If you’d like to talk further about our policies or have additional questions, we are always happy to help. Please feel free to contact us at [email protected] or (708) 552-7330.
Fantastic experience: I have had the best experience working with Alyssa at Lotus. I began seeing her in July of 2023 and have seen vast improvements in my health and well being with her guidance. Alyssa cultivates a warm and supportive environment that allows me to share openly without fear of judgement. Alyssa has been able to help me recover both on online and in person, so I would absolutely recommend her for any students attending school out of state especially. I have also had an incredible experience working with Lisa as my dietician. I began seeing her in July of 2023 as well. She has truly changed my perspective on recovery and has made every step of this process easier for me. Lisa is extremely knowledgeable and trustworthy. She has the tools and the facts to help someone overcome disordered thought patterns. Lisa and Alyssa have been an incredible team for me and I recommend lotus therapy group and their staff to anyone looking for mental health treatment.
We love hearing this! Thank you for sharing!!
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Lotus! Over the past couple of years, I’ve worked with Lisa, Alyssa, and Lauren on three different areas, and each one is truly exceptional at what they do. Everyone has been incredibly easy to connect with, and I’ve made life-changing progress here—progress I never made with any previous therapist. And as others have mentioned, Frank the dog is the best greeter ever! :)
We are so happy to hear about your experience with Lotus - thank you for sharing such a kind review!
Fantastic experience: Alyssa was amazing. So kind and helpful she got me through some very difficult times.
Thank you for sharing such kind words - we love Alyssa too!
Fantastic experience: The staff is so nice when I've interacted with them. The dog, Frank, is my favorite treat when I get to see him in the waiting room. Sam is great! She's very knowledgeable and patient. So grateful for her!
Frank loves seeing you too! And we appreciate your review, thank you!
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about Sam at Lotus Therapy Group in Frankfort! She has helped me work through my anxiety and unpack a lot of things I didn’t even realize I was holding onto. I honestly haven’t felt this good about myself in a really long time. Sam creates such a comfortable, supportive space, and I always leave our sessions feeling lighter and more in control of my emotions. I’ve grown so much since starting therapy with her. I feel more like myself again, and it’s such a good feeling! If you’re thinking about starting therapy, I highly recommend reaching out to Sam. She’s made such a difference in my life, and I’m so, so grateful to have found her.
We love that and love that you are feeling like YOU! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: Finding Lotus Therapy Group has truly transformed my life. The amount of growth I have noticed in myself with things such as anxiety and overthinking is incredible. Sarah (and Frank lol) have truly been so supportive and I truly am to a point where when in tough situations I find myself thinking "What would Sarah say" to help me navigate stressful situations. I consider myself SO blessed to have found Sarah and Lotus!
We are so happy that you found us too! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: I've been receiving counseling from Alyssa at Lotus Therapy since 2023. I was at a previous practice for years and felt like nothing was improving. I was really down and decided to google Therapy places near me and came across Lotus Therapy Group. I called immediately and was able to be seen right away. I have been able to make real progress and change in my life and I'm grateful.
We are so happy you found us! Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: I came into therapy with a skeptical attitude to say the least. My experience with Alyssa has been extraordinary. She's kind and compassionate, but, at the same time, challenges me to articulate my feelings and consider different perspectives. I've grown by leaps and bounds over the last few months. Highly recommend! I wrote this initial review about a year ago...still going strong with Alyssa and feeling more and more mentally capable of dealing with life's struggles.
We are so glad you found such a match with Alyssa! Thank you for such a kind review!
Fantastic experience: Lisa Carroll, RD was top notch. I always felt our conversations were confidential and she had my true interest at heart. She always provides me with realistic tips and tricks I can use especially when I am struggling. She also helped my husband with a meal plan to help with a medical need. She goes above & beyond (and is super cool and fashionable, too!)
Thank you for such a fun review! We love that you found us!
Fantastic experience: I have been working with Emily for almost 3 years in my recovery journey and she has helped me so much to accomplish my goals!
Woohoo! We love to hear this! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: A beautiful place filled with understanding and professional therapists. I truly feel so heard and understood here. I would recommend to anyone that would listen. Also it’s so cute and cozy inside
Thank you for taking the time to share! We appreciate the review!
Fantastic experience: Joining Lotus Therapy Group has been an amazing experience for me. It was my first time trying therapy so I didn’t know what to expect. I was immediately comfortable working with Ellen. Now, I look forward to my weekly session. I’m so happy with the growth in confidence I have felt! I recommend Lotus Therapy Group if you are looking for a place that makes you feel validated while also making a real difference in your life.
We love to hear about your growth in confidence! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: I have been on my healing journey since 2018 starting with a PHP that saved my life and I continued with therapy pretty consistently. I started at Lotus Therapy doing EMDR therapy with Ellen Scollins in January, and my life has drastically changed for the better! I am so grateful for her! For the past 7 years of trying to find the right therapist for me, I finally found her! Ellen makes me feel seen, heard, loved, appreciated and so much more. The way she executes EMDR is truly incredible. The Frankfort location is so cute, cozy and intimate. Walking in I instantly feel relief and happiness. I am beyond grateful for Ellen and Lotus Therapy Group! I look forward to every single session and crushing this healing journey.
BRB - Just sobbing from such a touching review. Thank you for trusting us and Ellen with your journey!
Fantastic experience: Within the past year I had decided to seek out a therapist to help me with drastic changes in my mental health. I am very lucky to have found Sarah (and Frank too ) The facility is adorable and inviting. Frank will greet me at the door every time and we typically end our session with a good belly rub. He has the best style As a very anxious people pleaser, Sarah has helped me work on being able to set boundaries. Working in an ER/Critical Care facility as a Vet Tech is extremely tolling on your mental and emotional health and it has been great to talk to Sarah about those hard days. Sarah has given me advice to push myself on how not to fall into a bad state of mind and it absolutely helps. She is so nice and I feel like I’m talking to a friend rather than it feeling clinical. I truly adore Sarah and Frank and am very lucky to have them both!
We adore this share! Thank you for sharing and we think Sarah and Frank are pretty great too!
Fantastic experience: Emily has been nothing but great. She creates a very comfortable and welcoming environment and she is truly the best!! I couldn’t reccomend her more!!
We 100% agree with you, Emily is great! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: I couldn’t have asked for anything better than Kendra and Emily. Truly found my fit at Lotus.
Woohoo! So wonderful to hear, thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: I went through multiple therapists and I just have to say, there’s no one out there like Briea! She’s so understanding and extremely attentive during our sessions. She’s helped me tremendously over the past couple months and I truly look forward to every session just to see her welcoming soul!
This makes us so proud and happy! Thank you for such kind words!
Fantastic experience: love this place!! sarah and frank(the therapy dog!!!) are the best and i actually like therapy now!!! and franks seasonal costumes are always the best
That Frank… he’s a gem! Sarah too ;)
Thanks for your review!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend coming to lotus therapy group. Kendra is very non judgmental, and helpful no matter what the situation maybe. Definitely cannot find a better group to receive therapy from.
We are so flattered! Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Breia and Kendra are absolutely amazing. They have been able to help where other therapists have fallen so short. I appreciate them so much for the help and support they have given me.
We are so happy you found us and thank you for such a kind review!
Fantastic experience: Sarah is a GOAT and frank is legit! Sarah has helped me a great amount with my anxiety and I cannot be more grateful for a reliable support system.
Thank you for such a kind review! We appreciate this!
Fantastic experience: Working with Lotus therapy has been life changing. The team (Lisa and Breia) worked with me individually and as a team to work through food, self image and relationship issues i have been struggling with for 20 years. I am still on this path for the long term but the first step was finally admitting there was an issue and using the tools they gave me have made me significantly healthy and more confident. I can't recommend Lotus therapy enough and i am so thankful that i gave therapy a chance. As a guy it is hard to admit you have an issue, it is even harder to ask for help. Asking for the help has changed everything. I could not have done it without them.
Thank you Pat! We are so thankful for your kind words!
Fantastic experience: Sarah Hart is the best therapist I have ever experienced. She gives feedback, listens, calls me on my bullshit. Everything you need in a therapist, trust me. I’ve been with her for over 8 years, and I trust her completely. Thank you for all you’ve done and continue to do, Sarah. And to you Lotus, you better hold onto her and Brea.
We love this! And we certainly are holding tight to both Sarah and Briea! Thank you for your kind words!
Fantastic experience: Alyssa has been amazing to work with! Having never seen a therapist before coming to Lotus, I had no idea what to expect when I started sessions but from the first day, I felt comfortable and excited to start my therapy journey. I’m just sad I didn’t start sooner but so happy to have found Lotus and Alyssa!
We are so happy you found Alyssa! What a lovely review!
Fantastic experience: Samantha is great! She really works to understand the problem and offers great thought on how to navigate the situation.
Sam is great, we agree! Thank you for spotlighting Sam and giving such a kind review!
Fantastic experience: I had gone through therapist after therapist trying to find one that I felt cared and really worked for me. After a long process I found Lotus, especially Sam at Lotus and my world completely changed. Their therapists want the ABSOLUTE BEST for every single one of their patients and you feel that right away! I owe so much to Sam and her understanding she’s provided me, I know without a doubt I wouldn’t be where I am today without her and Lotus!
We are so happy you found us and such a great fit with Sam!
Fantastic experience: Lauren has been an absolute amazing person to work with. Before coming to Lotus Therapy I struggled to find someone who could help me process my postpartum struggles. After working with Lauren I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders and that I can breathe again. She always provides a warm and welcoming environment and is an amazing active listener. I would highly recommend Lauren and Lotus Therapy to anyone who is struggling postpartum or with life transitions.
We are so happy to hear you found such a good fit with Lauren! Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Lisa has been great working with my 11 year old son and his eating habits. We have tried for years to find anything that could help him and finally after with working with Lisa he has made the most progress I’ve seen in less than a year. She is kind and really respects his comfort levels. She has been teaching him his own strengths and he is responding so well to therapy with her and looks forward to his meetings instead of hating them and begging not to go! Highly recommend for anyone with eating disorders
Thank you for the kind words! We are glad you found us!
Fantastic experience: I am a 45 yo female whose body and nutrition needs were changing faster than I could keep up with them. I sought out Lotus for a dietician because I didn’t know what to eat anymore without gaining weight. From the time I started seeing Emily at Lotus until now, I cannot believe the positive transformation of not only my mindset related to food, but also my relationship with nutrition in general. I had been trying to NOT eat for so long….intermittent fasting, pushing through hunger until dinner, getting caught up in all of the options of supplements, etc. Emily gave me permission to eat again, and I will be forever grateful to her for that. Getting back to basics and focusing on intuitive eating is my biggest positive take-away from my time with Emily. I am eating foods again that I actually like, instead of trying to eat foods that I think I should be eating. It is so wonderful to not have the highs and lows that fasting brings, and I am so much more balanced than I was going in. I am eating twice as much as I was eating before seeing her, and I haven’t gained any weight. Settling in to the mid-life changes that come with being a female is hard. Emily took the food part of that (weight gain, etc) and made it easy and balanced for me over a short amount of time. I am confident in what I am eating while feeling so good about myself. I cannot thank her enough for drowning out all of the modern day noise surrounding fasting, diets, supplements, etc, and bringing me back to where I really needed to be….eating intuitively with what works for my body. Thank you Emily and Lotus, for providing a service that truly impacted my life in such a great way during a time of change and uncertainty.
We love this! Thank you for such kind words and we are so happy you found a match in Emily! We think she's great too!
Negative experience: I would advise anyone considering working with this company to find therapy elsewhere. We had a terrible experience here as they seem to be all about the money. They told us that their protocol was to pay in advance and that our insurance company would reimburse us. We found out after a couple months of claims and submissions that insurance would NOT reimburse. They dance around this topic in the payment forms. Lying by omission is still lying! They also had my daughter seeing multiple therapists when she only needed to be seeing one. When I asked why they did that, they didn't have a good answer. Be VERY cautious if they suggest seeing more than one therapist. Seems like they just wanted as many people in their company to be on our payroll as possible. As far as the actual therapy went, it was useless. They move at a snail's pace because they "don't want to rush the child", but we would come to meetings and not even get close to the task of the day because in their mind it was "Hey, let's just bring this family back for more billable hours. YAY!" Then they would try to make me feel guilty for asking why we didn't get to something as scheduled. I understand some people may see progress with this place, but in my experience, we got nothing out of it after months of therapy and it was all out of pocket. What a racket! And the owner, (I think it's Lisa Carroll) acts sweet as pie to your face, but make no mistake... she's ALL about the MONEY!
Our practice is a private pay practice. We do make sure that clients are told that more than once prior to starting treatment and let client know that although reimbursement is typical for sessions to check specifically with their own provider and plan to ensure what coverage will be granted. We also have this clearly documented on paperwork clients sign prior to coming in and all clients are provided contact information for their clinician as well as the owners of the practice through the direct Lotus line. Oftentimes clients might be recommended more than one care professional if there is a need (such as eating disorders having a therapist as well as a dietitian or a trauma specialist being recommended as needed). We only recommend more than one clinician if there is a need and if you were working with more than one clinician and have questions as to the reasoning on this recommendation please let us talk further and provide more detailed insight.
We understand that an out of pocket expense is not suited for all, which is why we do always directly let clients know that we do not go directly through insurance. If you would like to talk more we encouraged you to reach out to us at #708-552-7330.
Fantastic experience: I just had my second session with Emily and my only regret is not working with her sooner.
We love that you found Emily! She is a keeper! Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a qualified and supportive therapist in a serene and non-judgemental environment, you found it! Samantha went above and beyond with my family for the past two years. She's soft spoken and really cares about her clients. I highly recommend Lotus Therapy Group.
This is so wonderful to hear! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: I did EMDR therapy with Kendra last year and it was one of the most challenging, yet rewarding things I have ever done. Kendra was gentle and compassionate and helped me get on the other side of one of the darkest times in my life. I highly recommend Lotus Therapy group.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so glad you found Kendra!
Fantastic experience: Lotus Therapy Group have an amazing group of eating disorder treatment professionals. I have been seeing Lauren for therapy and Emily as a dietitian for nearly a year now and it has been a transformative experience. I have had a therapist that specialized in eating disorders in the past who became unreliable. I was happy to feel comfortable transitioning to my care team at Lotus Therapy Group. Lauren and Emily provide me with exceptional care and I look forward to seeing them every week.
We are so glad you found such a great fit with Lauren and Emily! Thank you for such a kind review!
Fantastic experience: I've been going to Lotus for over 2 years and am so grateful for all the support and care I've received. Sam is such an amazing therapist who has been an integral part of my mental health journey. I wouldn't be who I am today without Lotus and Sam.
We love that Sam has been such a help! Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Hello my name is Emily and I’m 16 years old currently recovering from bullimia and anorexia. I joined Lotus Therapy around 2 years ago and I was very nervous at what this place would be. I transferred from another therapy place with my therapist Samantha Maciaga. When I tell you I fell in love with this place, I truly did. After a little bit there my mom and i decided to get more help by hiring a nutritionist. I ended up getting Emily Presbery and she is amazing!! I always feel that I am pushed that I am in a safe working zone. Emily helps me to feel confident in my recovery and she doesn’t make me feel any less for having little “slips”. Sam helped me understand what my eating disorder was and she is an amazing therapist. I highly recommended this place and especially Sam and Emily!!
Thank you for sharing such a kind review. And, we agree, Emily and Sam are amazing!
Fantastic experience: A lovely, caring group of professionals who continue to bring their gifts for the benefit of others. I cannot give a higher recommendation.
Thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Briea Frestel at Lotus Therapy Group for services, as she specializes in various areas, and she has played such a key role in my recovery and journey. Briea makes me feel welcome, is non-judgmental, and creates a safe space while challenging me to be the best version of myself. The office is a perfect therapeutic space and makes me immediately feel comfortable and wanting to come back. Wonderful location also!
Thank you for sharing and we love Briea too!
Fantastic experience: I have had such a wonderful experience at Lotus with Briea! I’m so grateful to have found such an intentional therapist. She has helped me grow in so many ways - it’s truly been a life changing decision! Would highly recommend Lotus Therapy Group to anyone in the area :)
Thank you so much for such a kind review!
Fantastic experience: I have been working with Emily for almost a year and a half on my ED recovery and I’m in a completely different place now than when I first came to lotus. I now think of Emily as the angel on my shoulder guiding me away from bad habits!
We love that! And we think everyone needs and Emily shoulder angel! Thank you for such a kind review!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Lotus Therapy for just about a year now and I love it so much. The space is so cozy and welcoming. It’s truly a beautiful place and if you’re lucky, you’ll run into the therapy dog Frank who is a little cutie :) I’ve been with my therapist Briea for 2 years and she’s AMAZING. We’ve developed such a strong bond over the course of two years. I haven’t had luck with past therapists so I’m super happy I found someone that makes me feel comfortable in such a vulnerable space. I hear such great things about all the other therapists available as well. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much - and, you're right, that Frank is a cutie! So glad you found us and Briea!
Fantastic experience: They are super warm and welcoming and care for you as a person. They impact your life and well being and are amazing people that everyone should have the opportunity of meeting :)
That is so, so kind to hear. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I started going to Lauren Oster a few months ago for cptsd and major depression. She is extremely compassionate and knowledgeable. Since the beginning I have felt very welcome and safe. We just had a few sessions of emdr and I'm really looking forward to more. She gives me the tools I need to help manage my emotions and trauma. I have nothing but respect for her and Lotus Therapy Group!
EMDR really can be so helpful and we're glad Lauren has been a great fit for you! Thank you for sharing such kind words!
Fantastic experience: I go here for my eating disorder recovery, Sarah and Lisa have helped me dig myself out of the darkest time of my life. I don’t know where I would be without lotus therapy. I have made so much progress and am continuing to do so. :) 10/10 recommend
Thank you so much and we love hearing about your progress!
Fantastic experience: 100% recommend to anyone seeking therapy! The people/therapists here are very empathetic and genuine. The facility is clean and cozy. What more could you want?
Thank you so much! We're so glad you found us!
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love lotus therapy group, especially Chrissy! I have been seeing her for almost a year now and she has completely changed my life. She's really helped me cope and given me tools for my everyday life
We are so happy to hear that and think Chrissy is just wonderful!
Fantastic experience: I found Lotus Therapy Group after several unsuccessful treatment stays for my bulimia. I've been working with Emily for the past year and a half and have grown so much in my recovery! From our very first session, Emily has always been willing to meet me where I'm at. She is kind, empathetic, and validating-- I've never felt judged by her for struggling. I respect Emily's candidness and her willingness to tell me hard truths when I need to hear them. I feel like I can be fully transparent about my eating disorder without it being too much for her to handle. Emily is passionate about her work, and I can tell that she truly cares about me as a person.
We’re so glad you found us and Emily!! And appreciate you sharing a part of your journey!
Fantastic experience: My girlfriend goes here and Lisa and Sarah have helped her so much. I love joining her in therapy just cause the waiting areas are calming and all around great vibes!
We love that you love the vibes - thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Lotus Therapy Group enough! Kendra DeFrank was SO amazing with my 9 year old daughter who suffers from emetophobia (fear of throwing up). It was starting to effect her daily life and the pediatrician recommended this place. Kendra did "EMDR" which is a type of therapy that has INCREDIBLE results - my daughter in just a few months has made wonderful progress. Forever thankful for this place & Kendra! Also, the space itself is so adorable and inviting. Very cozy & Frank the therapy dog makes an appearance every so often - and he is pretty much the cutest little ball of fluff.
We are so glad you found us! And, we agree, Frank is just the cutest!
Fantastic experience: Amazing and safe space with a therapist (Sarah) that completely changed my view on therapy. A group that I can tell truly care about their clients and make the office a comfortable and nonjudgmental.
Thank you for such kind words!
Fantastic experience: Sarah is such a kind and compassionate person! She makes you feel like the most important person, always validating your feelings, and giving the best advice on how to move forward. I’ve been so lucky to have her in my life for many years
We think we’re so lucky to have Sarah on our team too! Thank you for such kind words!
Fantastic experience: this place is a super cute environment and very nice welcoming people

Fantastic experience: Sarah is the best! She is so validating and great at what she does. I am more self compassionate and have better relationships with the people in my life because of my work with Sarah over the years. I’m so grateful!
We think Sarah is the best too! And we're so happy to hear that you are more compassionate with yourself because of her!
Fantastic experience: As a high school counselor, I have been able to work with quite a few members of Lotus Therapy Group. They are incredible! The staff is so kind and a wealth of knowledge. They have helped so many young people in the area. I have no hesitations about referring any of my students to Lotus - they are tremendous to work with!
Thank you Luke! We think you're incredible too!
Fantastic experience: Sarah is the first therapist I have ever liked. After 4 years searching I finally found a really good one. Everyone in the office is always very kind. It is a very calming and safe environment. -Kailey roecker
We are so happy to hear this! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Really nice place, I’ve worked with Lisa for a few weeks now, she’s really good at what she does!
Thank you for such kind words!
Fantastic experience: Kendra is amazing. We worked together for most of my senior year and I entered college feeling better than I ever had. I had been in traditional therapy for about 3 years with an amazing therapist but we got to a point where talking wasn’t helping me get over my trauma. Kendra and the EMDR she led me through helped me get over my PTSD and take my power back. I am so grateful I went to lotus therapy group, it really changed my life for the better.
We're so happy that you feel this way!
Fantastic experience: Kendra has been so amazing to work with! EMDR has been so helpful for me, and I can't imagine anyone else helping me through it the way she has. Highly recommended!
We love that you have had such a positive experience! Thank you for sharing!
Fantastic experience: My experience with Lotus Therapy Group has been outstanding, I have worked with both Lisa and Kendra! They are kind individuals, who listen and care. I have tried many therapy places before this one, but felt as if I was getting nothing done, and wasn’t learning how to cope with my anxiety and other things. But, when I come to Lotus I work on how to cope with my anxiety and gain skills that help me! By far the best therapy group, and will always recommend it to others!
We love to hear such loving feedback!
Fantastic experience: I've worked with Kendra and Lisa for years now and cannot say enough good things about both of them. They're kind, empathetic, genuinely amazing people to work with. They've helped me with my eating disorder, anxiety and depression, 'people pleasing' tendencies and everything in between. I cannot recommend them enough!
We are blushing! Thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: I had all but given up on healing from a long history of an eating disorder and adolescent traumas due to unsuccessful therapy encounters. I happened to stumble across Kendra and Lisa online and I will forever be grateful that I did. From the moment I sat down with each of them, the comfort that I felt was something that I had never felt with a therapist before. I immediately knew that there was finally a chance for me to heal. I have been give the tools for managing and recovering from multiple eating disorders that stemmed over a 15 year time period, as well as worked through things from the past that I was unaware of the effect they had on me. Kendra and Lisa truly gave me my life back. I will never forget their kindness, warmth, and unbelievable help. I am close to one year of “graduating” and I can truly say that I am the best version of myself because of them. I highly recommend Lotus Group Therapy!!
This is so touching! We so appreciate this!
Fantastic experience: Kendra and Lisa have done amazing work with my daughter. She is on her journey of overcoming extremely difficult issues and I am so very thankful to have found this group. Their office is super comfy and they really go out of their way to make you feel warm and welcomed. Makes it so much easier to open up and talk about things that normally would not be talked about but so essential to healing.
Thank you - we appreciate these kind words so much!
Fantastic experience: Kendra is a fantastic therapist to go to here. She has been incredibly helpful to see over the past years. Very empathetic and understanding. I would definitely recommend Lotus Therapy Group to anybody.

Wow! We are so thankful to hear such kind words. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Kendra has been a true godsend to my life over the last couple of years. There is no effort needed in order to feel comfortable in her presence. Her wisdom, empathetic heart, and acceptance have given me the boost that I always needed. Her guidance has been life altering and I will forever be grateful for the person I am because of her. You are in good hands at Lotus Therapy Group.
We are so appreciative of your review!
Fantastic experience: Kendra and Lisa have been foundational in the healing of our teenage daughter. They are wise way beyond their years and we feel so lucky that we have found them.
Thank you Todd! It's an honor to help!
Fantastic experience: Lotus is simply the best therapeutic facility in this area. Lisa and Kendra are both expert in their fields, personable and easy to talk to, and highly tuned in to their clients. The Frankfort office is adorable and situated right in the walkable downtown area with cute shops, a nice park, and a bike path.
