Elizabeth Myrna Ellis is the most unprofessional & disrespectful therapist I've ever known. She rambled for long periods of time and interrupts many times with no apologies or guilt. I have been diagnosed by two different psychiatrists with ADHD and have been taken medication for it. My childhood doctor also agrees that I do have ADHD, and has thought so ever since I was of a young age. I have been seeing a personal therapist for ADHD for months also. But I'm our session she claimed that I do not have ADHD due to having good grades in middle school but my grades began to slip in high school. I brought up how I know many people with ADHD personally that have good grades and she responded by saying "Their parents probably paid to have their children diagnosed with ADHD.". This shows little to no knowledge on mental illness and little to no respect for this practice. She has shown little to no care about what I was there for. In the past she was taken to court by a client and found guilty. In 2009 the georgia state board of examiners of psychologists, sanctioned her license was granted BUT she had to take extra psychology classes and education courses to remain licensed to practice. This shows she is not only negligent, but also careless towards this extremely sensitive and professional career in psychology and therapy. Please do not ever go to her. One of her previous clients brought their son in for his depression and she kept insinuating that he did not have depression, months later he tried to commit suicide. Hopefully this has proved how incompetent and irresponsible this woman is in this practice. Thank you. Email me if you have any questions or want to see any court documents. read more

Ellis Elizabeth M PHD - An example of her lack of care for her clients. - Doctors Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

She is warm, insightful and a superior listener/assessor. Previous professional experience give me confidence in her analysis and insights to aid a person in evaluating their options. Found her through insurance and ministry references. Very astute and quick, if someone is open to hearing her observations. read more

Took my wife to see Dr. Ellis. We spoke on the phone for an initial consultation and decided to proceed with the first appointment. She seemed like a soft spoken, and caring person, just the kind of therapist my wife wanted - someone to whom she could pour out her feelings and thoughts and get positive feedback in return. Instead, what she got was judgmental reactions and a very, "You can't do that. Don't bother setting goals," attitude. She apparently understood all about how my wife was treated growing up without asking or trying to understand what my wife told her. She continuously interrupted my wife, who was having trouble expressing her thoughts. And in those interruptions, she would inject her own narcissistic feelings - "Well, that's not how it was when I was growing up." Um, really? WHO CARES how YOU grew up? Things are a little different now than they were in the 60s. Please - please - if you are reading this, please reconsider. There are quite a few other therapist options. read more

This person is a child psychologist. I highly recommend you do not bring your child to her. She is controlling and self involved. I've had experience with other child psychologist and she is by far "not right." At the end of one session with my 8 year old she said "She has allot of burden on her shoulders". As you would imagine, I wanted more information. She refused and said we will discuss during a one on one. What? How can you say that to a parent and expect them to not want more information right away? In addition to my feelings that she has no business dealing with children, my child didn't like her at all. My child said that the doctor didn't listen to her. There are many more professionals out there; take your precious child elsewhere. We had appr 4 visits including a one on one with me, the parent. She was determined to only discuss what she wanted and in the order she wanted. Very rigid. read more

Do not waste your time and money! Awful experience taking our child to her. She is rude, unprofessional and not effective. We are so sad we didn't read all reviews of her from all sites more carefully. It was the worst experience we've ever had and our child was not helped at all. It's very sad she is still in business. read more
