General awesomeness

Dear Dr. Chris and Mike, You have had a very positive impact on both of our lives with your loving support, knowledge, courage to push for changes in the way mental health is treated and general awesomeness. You have guided me over the years to living a life with stability and overall happiness that I never thought was possible for most of my life and we are very grateful for that. You two are very inspirational to us.

The Greatest Gift

Dear Dr. Chris – I just wanted to say thank you for yor support over the years. I truly appreciate your genuine spirit and the way you listen and care. You’ve helped me in many situations, most recently the fertility journey that led to my beautiful daughter. That is the greatest gift! Thanks for being you.

renewed hope

I just wanted to let you know that I read your article on Eating Disorders, and I wanted to thank you for it. You were so brave! Your advice is so spot on, and I know that you are really really helping people. You have done a really good thing. Thank you for your honesty, it makes me feel that I can also be honest. Also, how you said that we are always recovering, really helped me to feel less like a failure when I have relapses in my thinking or my behaviour. You have given me renewed hope. I hope that your trip was really good, and I will see you and or talk to you soon! Thank you again.

Changed My Life,

I have been seeing Dr. Chris now for 3 years now and she has truly changed my life. I have a lot of issues including mental illness and she has been my one true hope through my journey. She speaks the truth and directly from her heart. Everything that she says to me, hits home and speaks directly to my heart. She has helped me in more ways than I could ever count and I would HIGHLY recommend her to anymore.

My Hero

You were the first person to show me kindness. You gave me a job when I had no money, listened to me without judging, and treated me with respect and compassion, which was something I had never felt. You told me things I needed to hear and nudged me forward in a very gentle way. You showed me love and gave me safety. It takes a very special kind of person to do what you do and I really admire you. Seriously, you are my hero!! I think the lesson was more about kindness than figuring out my health problems, and you were more than successful.

OVERCOME CHALLENGES

Dr. Chris, I can’t thank you enough for all your help this past year. You have helped me overcome so many personal challenges and shown me it is possible to live the life I want and be happy and whole whole while doing it. Thank you for sharing your story and letting me know we’re never as alone as we sometimes feel. You are an amazing person and I’m so grateful for all you do!!!!

I will be forever grateful,

I truly appreciate all you have done for my son and I over the past 4 years. I am very sad to be moving. Best wishes to you and your family. I will be forever grateful.

An Angel

Thank you for being such a wonderful and caring human being. You are so talented and incredibly intelligent and compassionate and patient and humble. I could go on. You have helped me so much. You are definitely one of my angels. Much love to you Christina.

Leader in the Field

Dr. Bjorndal is a compassionate and brilliant practitioner. She is a leader in her field – mental health and women’s health. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a practitioner that has great bedside manner, and the expertise and experience to give you the tools you need to create a healthy life for you/your family. Thank you Dr. Bjorndal! –Dr. Monika Herwig

 

It is a pleasure that I got to meet you!

Dear Dr Bjorndal – I would like first to thank you for all your help. It is always with gratitude that I think of you. You helped me realize that I needed to do much more psychological or personal work than I had realized. You helped me understand that. The good news is that I did and I achieved great results. I am doing so much better I am surprised at myself.
