I'm giving 2 stars because my therapist was fantastic, but everything else about this place sucks…read more The wait (even pre-Covid when the whole world ended up going into counseling) was obnoxious. I initially had to have a full diagnostic battery of tests and it took MONTHS to get the results. I needed them to confirm a childhood diagnosis my employer wouldn't accept for proof of my need for an accommodation. The person who did the test was clearly embarrassed bc the test and the report was finished but was waiting for Dr Gershon (or whoever, a Dr anyway) to "sign off" on it. Dude. Put your little stamp on it and let me have it. Ugh. After that, I entered counseling for ADHD, and guess what? They don't CONSISTENTLY send out appt reminders. You'd think, people who have a medical condition that makes them forgetful and disorganized would get a little help from the practice where they are seeking treatment. Nope. They will also never call you. I have had therapists/counselors in the past that would call me to make sure I was ok if I didn't show up. You know, because they realize it might be because you AREN'T ok....Not at Gershon. No call, no show = $$$ in their pocket and they get to go home early. Oh, and if you run late, or need to reschedule because you have a sick kid that day and can't go anywhere, don't bother calling. They NEVER answer the phone. NEVER. So when you get there 10 min late, they turn you away because you were no call, no show, EVEN THOUGH the therapist is STILL with the previous patient so you woulda been sitting there ANYWAY. This happened twice. I got there on time once, (I have ADHD remember? This was remarkable for me, lol) and since there was no receptionist (gone home for the day) no one knew I was there. Therapist was with previous patient late since "she didn't know I was there because I never checked in" with who?? The ghost? Another time I called the morning of my 7pm appt because I had an emergency to cancel/reschedule and was only able to leave a message. They tried to bill me for that session! It is not my fault you don't check messages or hey, PICK UP THE PHONE. It's a doctor's office, not the DMV. Long story short: if you need counseling because you have problems, don't go here, they will get worse because you will be ignored, hassled, aggravated, and strung along with empty promises ("Your results will be ready with 2 weeks" HA!) Therapists are great, but the rest of the staff is wretched and their policies are not patient friendly or care-based.

This place has taken money from my account TWICE without authorization in ERROR which has resulted…read morein overdraft fees from my account! They were NOT quick anout checking into it, it got passed to one then needed to send a message, two days no call back! The worst part...they did not even seem to care at all! We did not miss an appointment and we have no co-pays with our insurance yet we're charged $50 without ever being called, given an invoice, or any kind of explanation. Nor could one be given either time in error!

Let me start off by saying how much my experience with this place has changed ( last time we came…read morehere was a few years back ) and that's since we met Taylor. She has , from the start been absolutely amazing when it came to working with my 9 year old daughter . She is extremely helpful and finds so many creative ways to help my daughter recognize and understand her emotions. I love that she always includes my daughter's thoughts and opinions in sessions we have together instead of only speaking with me . Her fun & easy going personality mixed with her knowledge and compassion has been such a breath of fresh air for us this time around . Not only do I like her but my daughter actually gets excited to go to her appointments. We are so lucky to have found her!!

I always feel like I am in the presence of someone from a different realm when I am in Sirry's class. I have taken a few mediumship classes in my life with famous mediums but nothing compares to the way Sirry imparts her wisdom and guides you. She IS a rare Gem and the real deal. I highly recommend Sirry's services.

Do NOT go to Richard at Achor Counseling. Me and my boyfriend went to the Achor Counseling Center…read morein East providence. We had the owner and social worker Richard Figueira as our counselor for 3 sessions. He NEVER showed up for our 4th session at 10am. We waited almost a half an hour then left him a note and left. I expected at least a phone call with an apology and an attempt to reschedule. NOTHING! I even called the office about 1-2 weeks later and spoke with someone who answered and explained what happened. She apologized but we still never heard form our therapist Richard Figueira. How thoughtless and unprofessional. At first I thought his blunt straightforward style would be helpful for couples to get to the heart of the matter quickly and effectively. Instead, he was just plain negative and rude stating "You two have lots of problems that I do not know if they can be fixed." I think it's more that he is incapable of fixing anyones problems as he obviosly has too many of his own.

I've built up a great relationship with my councilor, which is why this review gets 2 stars instead…read moreof 1, but it didn't really help me too much and was hardly professional. She would use the phone during our sessions, would barely talk, and even misgendered me multiple times for months after I came out to her as trans (I had to aggressively ask her to stop, and I will say she made an effort but it wasn't too effective). I basically fidgeted with toys and talked to myself for 3 years. Never was really offered many coping skills, tips, etc. save for a few pieces of paper with activities that were clearly not aimed at my age group (saw her from about 15y-18y) mostly just had someone to talk to. She was frequently late, and quite a few time was not even there for an appointment (many times she was sick or had very good reason not to be, but no one contacted me and I ended up waiting for an hour or more) no secretary or person to ask questions in the waiting room, just a tiny window to the main office that usually has its blinds pulled. Good luck getting any help with scheduling or payment there. I went to their resident psychologist (no longer available I guess, thank heavens!!) to get prescribed medication. They did not take insurance and I spent ~2000 dollars to get laughed at and handed a piece of paper with "prozac" scribbled on it. I'm not kidding. This Dr. did not give a shit about me. She actually laughed when I told her about my past problems with drugs, suicide, self-harm and abuse, and then didn't even discuss treatments with me. Honestly, if you're looking for someone to talk to, be my guest. I only went here because they were one of the few places that accepts neighborhood, but there are many places out there that are probably more than worth the price.

At the end of our relationship, I am now confident in my self regulation, stable minded, and happy as a new daily life standard.

If you are in need of a personal or life transformation, Lisa is here to support and guide you through your journey. She is patient, supportive, and validating, first and foremost. She is thorough in her work, detail oriented, hardworking, and she will lead you with a positive mindset. The benefits Lisa's work has given my life are priceless and unending.

I'm able to set critical boundaries with confidence to protect myself when it is (inevitably) needed. I am able to be much kinder to myself than ever before, leading to increased confident and greater successes in my work and social life. 100% recommend Lisa to work with. She is a genuinely kind hearted individual with a thoughtful, selfless mind. She sets a standard for therapist globally. Very hard working and excels at her job. Thank you so much Lisa.
