    Went to get help they said they could make an appointment for tomorrow. I said I need help NOW they…read moresaid we can give you a another number to call. I said what happens between now and the appointment. They said that's all they could do sorry..

    If there were an option to leave zero stars, I would have. My experience with Elite DNA has been…read moreone of the most frustrating, disappointing, and emotionally draining experiences I've had with any mental health provider. I came to your organization in hopes of finding advanced, trauma-informed therapy for myself and my two children. We were open, honest, and vulnerable during our intake process--clearly stating our need for trauma-based therapy, not basic counseling. The emotional toll it took for us to even reach the point of seeking help was significant, and we expected to be met with professionalism and attentiveness. Instead, we were met with inefficiency and negligence. After repeated forms, time-consuming paperwork, and unnecessary disruptions to my work and personal life, we were scheduled with someone who did not provide the type of care we clearly requested. This was not just a clerical error--this was a complete disregard for what we communicated during the intake. The therapist even acknowledged the mismatch, which only deepened the sense of wasted time and emotional strain. After speaking directly with two managers--one being at your Port Charlotte location--at the beginning of the week, it was agreed that we would not proceed with services due to this failure to meet even the most basic expectations. So imagine my shock when I woke up this morning to find a $40 charge on my account--without my consent or authorization. This is completely unacceptable. At no point did I authorize payment for services that were not rendered or agreed upon. Two managers were made fully aware that we were not moving forward, and yet this charge was made anyway. This is not just a lack of professionalism--it's borderline fraudulent. Let me be clear: if this charge is not immediately reversed, I will be filing formal complaints with the Better Business Bureau, Consumer Affairs, and pursuing a dispute with my bank. They have already been notified of this unauthorized charge. This is not how you treat families seeking healing. This is not how you run a credible healthcare service. What we experienced was careless, disorganized, and emotionally harmful. To others reading this: do not waste your time, your energy, or your hope on Elite DNA. There are far better, more competent providers out there. I wish I had read more reviews before trusting this company with something as important as my family's mental health. ONCE AGAIN LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR! This company should be shut down. The level of negligence and unethical behavior I've experienced is beyond unacceptable. You did not have authorization to charge my account, and yet you proceeded to take payment despite clear communication with two separate managers confirming that no services would be rendered. This is a violation of trust, and it's borderline theft. Return my money immediately. If this charge is not reversed without delay, I will be filing a police report in addition to reporting this incident to the Better Business Bureau, Consumer Affairs, and pursuing all legal avenues necessary to hold Elite DNA accountable. You've crossed a line--and I will not let this go unanswered.

    Today was my first appointment with Catherine Bukovitz and I can say she's the worst counselor I've…read moreever seen in my life. I am a new mom and as soon as she saw my daughter on the phone, REFUSED to see me, as a client and called me a bad mother because she would "hear everything I would be saying" I told her that I can't afford a baby sitter and she told me that didn't matter and I shouldn't have brought her to the appointment even though I have done that with other providers and have never heard that before in my life. My daughter isn't aware what is going on and truly doesn't make sense to refuse a new mom because of that. Please if you want an empathetic counselor that understands about being a parent, please do not go to this woman.

    Catherine Bukovitz ***…read more Horrible experience with a compete disaster of a "counselor " every session is like grounds hog day because she doesn't know what planet she's on and surely doesn't take notes or prepare for her sessions. Why prepare when you have no goal is her motto. She offers no structure whatsoever, is extremely judgmental and arrogant, and she needs be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder and dementia! I made an in depth complaint with the company she works for and I don't think I'm stopping there with the experience I had with that women. She is useless and damaging. Truly a horrible counselor who will only cause you stress. I wasted five sessions!! It wasn't just a "bad day"
