He would say that I did most of the work. But without his skilled experience and exceptionally large toolbag of anxiety treatments, I can assuredly say I would not be where I am today without Dr. Dufford’s help.

Thanks to Dr. Dufford’s guidance I was able to quit smoking and developed a healthier self-image and better outlook on life in general. Thank you Dr. Dufford!

The therapy I’ve received has helped me out greatly. I learned that I was causing the panic attacks by thinking negative thoughts. I know now how to let them go! Ive learned several techniques including breathing techniques to help me deal with stress.

Michelle M.

I used to turn to medication for relief, now I look forward to deep breathing because I know it will relax me and help me slow down. Now the thought of a panic attack is not a scary thing. I have the coping techniques to avoid panic and relax. Thanks Dr. Dufford. 

John S.

The understanding that I now have about where my anxiety comes from, how to take back my life and live in the moment, and to always be equipped for what inevitably will come up (in our lives), is 100 percent attributable to Dr. Dufford.

Steve S.

Dr. Dufford is kind, patient, smart and funny. He is an amazing therapist who helped me get through a rough time in my life. He gave me tools and techniques that helped me control my anxiety and take control of my life again.

Ever since I started my therapy with Dr. Dufford, my life has opened up in ways that I never thought possible. Thank you Dr. Dufford for all the guidance and support you have provided,

Dr Dufford saw me for my phobia of flying-he was referred to me by a friend who also saw him for her phobia of flying.  I cried tears of joy- because this therapy has now given me my life back and opened up so many opportunities for me!

Mel S.

 I found Doctor Dufford online when I moved to San Jose. I was looking specifically for CBT specialists, Dr. Dufford referred me to one of his trainee, Van. She was by far the best therapist I have ever had.  The coping techniques that Van has taught me have brought my anxiety/panic levels down to almost nonexistent.
