I was told by her she was jealous of my strength and that's why she became critical of me. When confronted a therapist she told me she didn't say that and began to gaslight me. She would reword everything I confronted her about trying to make m seem crazy and confused. No accountability whatsoever who can trust a therapist with no accountability and blames you for their actions and your past. Sad you put your trust in someone for 2 years and they're just like everyone else. Some people don't need to be a therapist because they care more about themselves and their reputation than a clients mental health. The therapist harmed my mental health couldn't get a sincere apology or explanation and was terminated for holding her accountable asking for answers after two years. I got terminated over the phone couldn't even get closure. Very selfish for her to get closure and leave me with questions after two years of therapy. Be careful who you trust.. You would think the clinic would like feedback to work with the therapist so this wouldn't happen to future clients but the supervisor only provided referrals and was weird. I'm writing this review because this was very traumatic for me and it seems like there was another review here with same issue. I don't want anyone to be harmed like I have. She needs to be held accountable. This is no okay. Clients deserve a safe space and are already judged and criticized out in the real world. You shouldn't have to pay a therapist to do the same. Sad you can't even trust a therapist these days. Be very careful and tread carefully here! Good luck!

Each visit was a repeat of the same questions he asked on the last visit (the same general background questions). He was not interested in how I felt physically, mentally or emotionally. He has no staff, only a rude answering service and I needed him to call a pharmacy to answer a question about a script before I ran out of medication I've been taking for 10+ years. He never returned the pharmacist's phone calls, I was off my medication for 10 days, I was desperately ill, saw him in his office and it still took 3 more hours and calls from me threatening to file a complaint with the medical board to get him to return the pharmacist's call in order to get my script filled. He will not call pharmacies. He says that is his policy. Who prescribes medication, but refuses to call pharmacies back? This guy. I asked about rehab and he said I couldn't afford it and wouldn't get better. For real. I've found a new doctor. Dr. Levine will not care about you as a patient and makes that very clear.
