I am truly impressed with the exceptional care my son received at Amen Clinics in Reston. After being diagnosed with anxiety and depression, he was fortunate to be paired with Dr. Tyrone Fillyaw, and it made all the difference.
Dr. Fillyaw is an outstanding psychiatrist with genuine humanity and empathy. He quickly built a strong connection with my son, making him feel safe, understood, and truly special. My son, who often struggles to open up, felt completely comfortable sharing his thoughts and emotions during their sessions—an incredible testament to Dr. Fillyaw’s compassionate approach.
The personalized treatment plan, including targeted supplements prescribed by Dr. Fillyaw and the Amen Clinics team, was spot-on. I was initially skeptical about supplements, having never believed in them before. But within just one week, we saw a dramatic 180-degree improvement in my son’s mood, energy levels, and overall well-being. The change has been life-changing and continues to amaze us.
The entire team at Amen Clinics Reston is professional, supportive, and dedicated to brain health in a way that feels innovative and holistic. I can’t recommend Dr. Fillyaw and the clinic highly enough—if you’re seeking thoughtful, effective mental health care for yourself or a loved one, this is the place.
5 stars! Thank you for giving my son (and our family) hope and real results.

The beginning has been excellent, and we hope the journey ahead will be just as positive. We chose Amen Clinic because of its holistic approach. Dr Fillyaw was very kind and professional throughout the visit. We especially appreciated his attentive, non-judgmental listening style, which made us feel comfortable and understood. His empathy and genuine care really stood out, and it made the entire experience very positive. I forgot to mention
Nneoma Kpaduwa Dr assistant, she is quick to understand and respond to my request and emails. Well done!

Dr. Sood at Amen Clinics is a wonderful doctor. Every journey is unique, and I had to be very proactive—not a passive bystander—in my own care. Dr. Sood validated that approach and took extraordinary measures to acknowledge an accurate diagnosis for me, instead of defaulting to the life sentence I was originally handed by other doctors.
He understands how critical an accurate diagnosis is to ensuring relevant and truly helpful medical care, and he is approachable and easy to talk to throughout the process. Fadyah and the entire staff are also excellent to work with—professional, supportive, and kind.
I highly recommend Amen Clinics and Dr. Sood.

I went into my Zoom appointment with Dr. Sumner feeling nervous, which, honestly, was expected since anxiety was the very reason I was seeking help. That said, I was not terribly anxious because I had already had such a wonderful, warm, and reassuring intake call with her assistant, Sarah, who was kind, patient, and thorough. Even so, I had never met Dr. Sumner before, and with my anxiety being as high as it was, I felt that familiar edge of fear creep in.
Within just minutes of speaking with Dr. Sumner, that fear completely melted away. Her presence was calm, grounded, and deeply compassionate, and I immediately felt safe. She took the time to truly listen, not just to my symptoms, but to my story. She gently and clearly explained that the anxiety I was experiencing was a very normal response to the amount of stress I had been under. That alone brought such relief.
What truly stood out to me was when she explained how anxiety often feeds on itself, how we become anxious about having anxiety, which only intensifies it. That insight hit home so deeply. I had experienced a brutal bout of anxiety back in 2019, and having it return stirred up so many old, painful memories. Dr. Sumner understood this immediately and addressed it with such wisdom and kindness that I felt seen and understood rather than judged or rushed.
She also quickly picked up on the fact that I am very hesitant about medication and strongly prefer natural approaches. Instead of dismissing that, she respected it fully. Learning that Dr. Sumner is also an herbologist spoke straight to my heart. It meant everything to be working with someone who honors both mental health and natural healing. Her approach felt balanced, thoughtful, and deeply humane.
By the end of our call, I felt something I had not felt in a long time: peace. I could breathe again. I felt hopeful. I even felt excited about my life moving forward. That shift alone was priceless.
Dr. Sumner is thoughtful, caring, gentle, brilliant, and genuinely kind. She has a rare ability to calm, reassure, and empower all at once. I am beyond grateful for her care and cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone who is struggling with anxiety and looking for a compassionate, whole-person approach.

I was evaluated by the Amen Clinic and have followed their recommendations, which primarily involves taking supplements. Initially, I was disappointed that they did not recommend a non-stimulant ADD medication, which is what I had in mind. But I decided to give their recommendations a try. I am pleasantly surprised at the positive results I've had. They are also very thorough and explained the results of my brain scans in clear detail. I am pleased.
