I pass no judgment, either way, but would like to offer my own subjective opinion. I sought relationship counseling from Billy, not sex therapy. Billy was utterly respectful, an attentive and active listener, and gave me incredibly useful advice that gave me peace in dealing with a personal situation that was almost entirely out of my own control. I was at my wits' end and suffered from anxiety that made it difficult to breathe. All I know is that Billy was extremely sympathetic and helpful to me and I appreciate him for it. I recommend Billy to anyone who is looking for more than just a 'yes man.' He's genuine and caring and personable and wise and educated and contemplative. Most of all, he's helpful. Go see him!

He has helped us keep our situation in proper perspective (when we went to him we were letting our minds run away with worst case scenarios). He has helped us acknowledge and accept REALITY, where we fit in the equation, and what we can and cannot control. We have finished each session feeling positive and grateful for sound wisdom to have our hats on. Highly Recommend!

I initially came to Marlo at Human Settings out of curiosity... I had seen drastic changes in a…read morepatient and was very interested in learning more about hypnosis. I was very hesitant due to the common myths of hypnosis but once Marlo started to explain the research and science behind it and and went into details about the subconscious mind, I started to come up with things I wanted to address during my session. I have had an amazingly great response with hypnosis thus far. I have addressed some personal issues and have a sense of peace and calmness in my life. I have gone to her for many different things such as food cravings and even some goal setting..! I would highly recommend Marlo at Human Settings, you can tell she is very passionate about what she does and is very knowledgeable in her field.

In 2015 I went to Dave Morris and quit smoking after one session. I was so ready to quit and this…read moresession stamped and closed the deal. It's only been a few days but once again I'm confident that wanting to be sober from alcohol is 100% going to stick. One session because I've wanted this for so long after struggling with trying to set limits or negotiate what was and what amount wasn't ok, I knew I could never have just one drink. I call both bad habits "a blind spot" in the rear view mirror. I don't care if others are drinking or smoking, there is no desire and no jealousy or cravings. It's a blind spot conjured up from my self conscious that keeps me loving life, enjoying every waking moment and healthy choices. I was in tears with joy when I felt the moment of locking away those old destructive ways. Thank you Dave Morris and I suggest helping yourself with things you want to change. It's a lifesaver, literally.

I wrote a previous review when I was angry about something I couldn't comprehend nor understand. If I could say something to Dr. Smith, it would be, I think your the best psychiatrist and probably most of DFW does too.

Also, for anyone who has not seen this doctor, he is worth it, and you will most likely return and keep him as your doctor. He is that good of a doctor.

I can't say enough how incredible Jenna is as a counselor. She worked with me for about a year…read morethrough an extremely difficult time in my life, where I was working through multiple issues with my mental health and relationships. She helped me understand my reactive behaviors, restore my confidence in myself and develop coping skills for my issues at hand. My friend also sees her, and any time we say something especially insightful or emotionally healthy, we laugh and say "thanks, Jenna." I highly recommend her especially for young women. Also, just a note to anyone actively searching for a counselor. Take the plunge. Make the appointment (preferably with Jenna, lol). You clearly have an interest, maybe even a need. If you don't like it or it's not a fit, no harm done. It's worth it to give it a try. I say this from experience, and I'm so glad for the time and therapy I received, because I took that first step. Good luck, my friend.

My husband and I had been seeing James for almost one month. Initially things were going really…read morewell, and then during the last session we had hit a couple road bumps that I wanted to address. I had started to feel comfortable with James and let my guard down at this point. He did as well. I felt his office was a safe space for me to be my unfiltered self. James had casually said the "F" word during our sessions several times at this point, (as well as his IG posts have memes where he jokingly curses as well). For this reason, and because I felt comfortable at the time not having to sensor myself, I used the "F" word as an adjective during our last session in a pronounced tone to emphasize a point I was making. James proceeded to cut me off mid sentence and tell me that we aren't a good fit anymore because I was "cussing at him" and because I didn't trust him anymore. He didn't allow me to respectfully finish my train of thought / sentence. This is completely obsurd because I absolutely was not cursing at him. Nor would I ever... It reminded me exactly of what hit a chord between us at our last session where he told me to essentially stop talking mid sentence, and let my husband continue on his own. I was shocked after this abrupt and rude interruption, and said with a stunned look on my face "If my trust is slightly broken, it can still be repaired." He responded with "...Well can it though?" At this point, I was in shock because everything he was doing and saying and doing was so contradictory. Wasn't a therapist's job to prove that trust can be repaired?? And isn't the point of a therapist office to ensure clients feel they can be themselves, and not have to censor who we are? I was stunned. At the VERY LEAST, if he truly thought we weren't a good fit anymore, he could've respectfully waited for me to finish my sentence / thought and let me know then. Instead of interrupting me right there on the spot and essentially "breaking up with me". Ultimately, James has a very calm and gentle demeanor, but I discovered that his office is definitely not a safe space for his clients to express themselves fully as their true selves. (At least it wasn't for me). He preaches that there are reactive people, and dismissive people. Yet in that moment he was the one being 100% reactive, and unprofessional. He ended up backpedaling and tried to undo what he had implied/said, but it was too late at that point. That trust was definitely broken. I left the office in tears and never wish to see him again. As a professional therapist, you're expected to be just that. You're the therapist, the professional. It's not my job to be guarded and cautious in his office. It's my job to be open and 100% myself. His job to maintain professionalism and show guidance. This was our first time trying couples counseling, and unfortunately I'll never be able to look at it the same way again. This experience will haunt me for the rest of my life. And I don't know if I'll ever feel I can be 100% myself in a therapist office again. I did however have a positive experience with Cecelia during our individual therapy, who showed grace and respect 100% of the time. She allowed me to feel welcome, comfortable, and heard in her space during every visit.

So thankful for the work that this counseling center is doing in Plano and the surrounding area!read more
