Our pediatrician and a therapist at Children's Hospital recommended we find counseling for my 5 year old grandchild. I knew somebody who went to Counseling West and he raved about their services and how much it helped him, he gave me the contact info, so I gave it to my daughter. What kind of an asshole tells a mother who is desperately trying to get her son help for a very real issue that "We don't deal with people and their custody drama?" I will tell you... a cold hearted human who did not listen. She did not hear that we have a 5 year old having panic attacks because he is so frightened. Does it matter that's it's coming from his father? I think not, what matters is he needs help to sort through this. This has nothing to do with a custody battle. It is no wonder we, as a society, are in the state we are in. People who need help, who seek help are not getting it. There are not enough mental health doctors to go around and in our case nobody has time for us. And then you have mental health "professionals" like this shithole, who over the telephone make a judgment about someone they have never met, about a child who desperately needs someone to confide in, and they turn their heads the other way in disgust. Shame on you for not listening. Shame on you for not recognizing that a 5 year old having panic attacks is a serious issue. And shame on you for being such a cold hearted asshole.

I guess it makes sense because this is exactly the sort of business you take for granted and forget to review - unless you've had a bad experience. Funny how we will race to our keyboards to proclaim the best doughnut or latte but totally forget something which has made a positive impact on our lives. My teenager has seen two counsellors here in the last couple of years. She ADORED the first one and made great progress. Because of the nature of the Center as sort of a first stop after graduation her counsellor moved on and she was very reluctant to see another. I thought about paying the literally 3X as much to see the former counsellor in her private practice but decided to contact the coordinator, Cami to see if we could get in with someone new. She was super helpful and professional and matched her with a new therapist. Every week my daughter says after her session "well, she's not _____" but also every week she is making progress. Maybe lightning didn't strike twice (and believe me, we had tried several other businesses with abysmal results first) but her new counsellor is professional, compassionate and competent. Especially for those parents out there struggling to get someone referred by their child's primary care provider ... and I know that one. Spent WEEKS calling to find nothing through referrals. With their sliding scale I actually pay around what the co-pay would have been without nearly pulling my hair out to find someone through insurance. The intake forms are long but not dissimilar to what we experienced at other businesses. The difference here is that they stay in communication with you and let you know what is happening. This has worked out so well that even my EX HUSBAND now sees a provider through The Center. Give them a try.

I had a very unprofessional experience here at "the center for professional counseling " …read more After several months of seeing a counselor, she abruptly ended my sessions with no explanation. Said she could not tell me why but her manager CAMI could if I wanted further information. Being that her and I had established a strong counselor/client relationship, I was completely blind sided and confused. . At first I was disinterested in more information as I was very upset to hear this news. After a few days, I ended up reaching out to her manager CAMI several times via phone call/voicemail and never got a response In life we all have our triggers , mine are rooted in trust and abandonment. As you can imagine, this event pushed both buttons. At the end of the day, I chose to except the outcome and move on . Deciding to trust in myself and make the choice to be ok without answers. There are individuals who seek therapy that are on a thin line. This event shook me and I would consider myself a pretty stable being. It took me about a year to write this partially because I was embarrassed to share this info. My hopes is that, this post wakes up those at this center. As a counselor , you should never leave a human worse off than you found them. I entered therapy just wanting to do some spring cleaning within myself and left therapy feeling mishandled. I spent months sharing about my life's intimate experiences only to log onto my session one day and be dismissed.

There are so many well educated psychologists that actually know what they are doing and didn't accumulate a PhD over decades and talk to you explicit about things (including your genitals) and offer absolutely no help but say bad things about you to your primary practitioner as well as your own personal family members. I hope this helps anyone looking for mental health to find someone skilled and not just someone misguided and pretty much unskilled.

Their operation is that the Dr oversees Nurse Practitioners where you literally get less than 15 minutes. Where half of the appt is rescheduling and filling meds. Their treatments have almost killed me on several occasions and their ideology is to just max you out in every med until your 300 lbs, depressed and suffering physical consequences while being as emotionally broken as ever. Avoid this practice at all costs, this is a quack operation. My biggest regret is not leaving after the first few years, and I'm glad I refused their last treatment which finally was the last straw for me because it was an especially inappropriate medication and downright dangerous for what I was in the Emergency Room for 4 days earlier.
