Protected Roots Integrative Treatment Center

We sincerely appreciate Outreach Representative Ellie Kohn’s communication and time. Ellie is appreciated for her commitment to providing our industry with the best service and PRI is lucky to have her on its team. Thank you!

I strongly recommend PRI to any family seeking higher level or care in San Diego. I am thoroughly impressed with the integration of evidence-based practices and the dedication to ongoing learning amongst the clinical team. Dr. Kuo and Dr. Warter are both highly competent and skilled clinicians who lead their clinical team with support, encouragement, and care. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer a family member or friend to this program.

Dr. Warter was a true lifeline for our teenager during their battle with depression. With empathy, expertise, and genuine care, he created a safe and personalized space for them to heal and build their way towards a better future. His tailored and personal approach brought him back from the darkness and touched our family's hearts deeply. We can never thank him enough for the light he brought into our child's life when they needed it most. He's not just a therapist; he's a lifesaver. We highly recommend him to anyone seeking mental health support.

Our family is forever grateful to the entire team at Protected Roots, Integrative Treatment Center. The team created a customized treatment plan tailored to address all of the challenges our teenager and family as a whole were facing. Our child worked closely with Dr. Warter who held one-on-one therapy sessions with our teen. Dr. Warter quickly developed a strong rapport with our child and supported us parents in holding our teen accountable when boundaries were not adhered to. Our teen also participated in a therapeutic group run by Dr. Kuo. We all found Dr. Kuo to be available, supportive, and empathetic at every turn. Dr. Kuo structured each session to our induvial needs and goals. We found the sessions with Dr. Kuo to be so valuable and effective- to hear from other families about their struggles which mirrored our own, helped all of us to feel less different, less isolated, and less alone. We also enjoyed working with the interns in group therapy who connected with the teens in our sessions so powerfully. Each member of Protected Roots played a significant role in supporting our teen’s mental health recovery and improving the lives of each member of our family overall. Again, forever grateful!

Dr. Warter's support has been highly impactful in our family's journey surrounding a child with ongoing health issues. Over the course of many family-based sessions we learned how to cope and grow as a unit. Highly recommend his approach.

Protected Roots Integrative Treatment Center deserves a review. As Care Solace assisted me in finding therapy sessions for my child, I came across Protected Roots Integrative Treatment Center. Dr. Warter and the entire team at Protected Roots helped me enormously in tough times to get assistance. Their flexibility, compassion, and professionalism were exceptional. My daughter has been attending sessions for about three months now, and she's enjoying them. Chloe, her therapist, is wonderful! My daughter enjoys meeting up with her every week. This place doesn't get enough credit for all they do! Keep up the good work, Protected Roots!

Exceptional experience; extremely grateful for this group of clinicians.

Dr. Kuo is exceedingly patient, witty and a great teacher.We thoroughly enjoy the sessions and respect her guidance. Very professional.
