Dr. Greaves is exceptionally professional and with great experience and with high ethical standards that bring to his patients confidence and trust of judgement mostly when therapy is for couples. I personally researched to find the best and I admired his honesty and support to help me to bring strength to take care for me and my family. His bilingual skill and hispanic background was also extremely important for us.

Dr. Greaves is the best psychiatrist and psychotherapist combo in the Bay Area. His psychotherapy skills are second to none, and the psychiatric skills and services are a huge added plus. Faced with a life threatening condition, Dr. Greaves did nothing short of save my life and put me back on the road to true happiness and life satisfaction. How many stars does a doctor get for that?
