    I reached out to McLean Counseling Center to request an appointment for disability documentation…read moreguidelines so I could receive accommodations for college. I have received accommodations before in college and provided my previous documentation. The response I received from Farah Assefnia, who works there as administrative office, was very brief, rude, and dismissive -- saying that they don't participate in that kind of service. When I followed up to ask if they have an age limit or don't serve adults, she simply said there is no age limit, however, they won't be able to provide documentation for college accommodations. Farah treated me poorly. Their website mentions "Support Services & Accommodations," so this was very unclear and disappointing. It was never specified if they specialize in accommodations for workplace, college students, high school students, middle school students, or elementary school students. I felt discriminated, disrespected, and dismissed. If they don't offer this service, a polite explanation and a referral to another clinic who has experience providing documentation and accommodations would have been the professional thing to do. I would not recommend this center to anyone who is a person of color, college students, young adults, or disabled individuals looking for support seeking support or accommodations. Farah Assefnia's response showed a complete lack of customer service skills. McLean Counseling Center needs to train their staff better or hire people who know how to treat clients with basic respect. They also need to update their website to specify what "Support Services & Accommodations" actually means.

    Unprofessional and careless, I Never experienced such a poorly managed healthcare office!…read moreI called for an appointment and some medical tests, and they took all my health situation information, including my credit card information. It took me two hours to answer their questions, only to set up an appointment. On the morning of the appointment, they called and canceled and said we would contact you to reschedule, and nothing happened after that! After two weeks, I still can not even get them to talk. I was wondering if it's scamming at all.

    This is not a complaint about my son's therapist. My complaint is with LifeStance…read more The constant phone calls, text messages, and emails are excessive. It feels like spam. I'm being contacted so frequently that it has become overwhelming and frustrating rather than helpful. On top of that, I canceled two appointments within the required cancellation window, yet I am still being charged a copayment that I had already paid. Between the excessive communication and the billing issues, my experience with LifeStance has been extremely disappointing. At this point, I am seriously considering ending my therapy services, not because of my therapist, but because of the poor experience I've had with LifeStance's administrative and customer service practices.

    I am extremely disappointed with my experience with LifeStance…read more I scheduled an appointment but had to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances. I provided notice approximately 48 hours in advance and never received any medical services, yet I was still charged (or threatened with a charge) of $100 for an appointment that never occurred. What has been even more frustrating is the lack of resolution. Since April, I have spent countless hours on the phone attempting to address this issue. Each time I call, I am given different information, transferred to someone else, or told the matter will be reviewed. Meanwhile, the organization continues attempting to charge the card on file. The issue is no longer just the fee itself. It is the months of runaround, poor customer service, and inability to resolve a straightforward billing dispute. Patients should not have to spend months fighting charges for services they never received. I understand that medical practices have cancellation policies, but applying a substantial fee despite a cancellation made roughly 48 hours in advance, and then forcing a patient through months of unsuccessful follow-up, reflects poorly on the organization. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend LifeStance. Patients should carefully review all cancellation and billing policies before scheduling and be prepared to document every interaction if a dispute arises.

    Ramzy changed my life…read more I came to Nova Hypnotherapy with a fear of flying and turbulence that had been holding me back for years. In just a few weeks, Ramzy gave me the tools and knowledge to not only conquer that fear, but to handle any fear that comes my way. But the impact went so far beyond flying. What started as a fix for turbulence anxiety turned into a breakthrough for my business. I now walk into presentations with a level of execution and self confidence I didn't have before, and it shows in how I deliver. The ripple effect has been incredible. I'm more conscious of my surroundings, my relationship at home is stronger, and something has genuinely unlocked in my brain that keeps me focused and moving on my mission every single day. If you're on the fence, stop overthinking it and book the session. This work is life changing.

    Be wary of this therapist. The "office" has no privacy and his methods are not professional. During…read moreour first session, his partner/wife was having a dinner party and some of the guests asked us why we were there. In a second session, he was running late and asked us to wait in his room while he walked the other couple out. While waiting, he had a white board up that detailed notes from their session. He talked a lot about himself and his partner's personal problems. In another visit, while waiting in the living room -- this is their personal house -- his partner and her sister (who was visiting) came in to talk to me and asked about the problems I was having with my partner, reclined on the sofa next to me and began to talk about her relationship with Chris, the therapist. He's technically licensed but his methods are not standard, and potentially dangerous. We stopped seeing him as he seems to have boundary issues himself, and ongoing problems with his current relationship that spill into the counseling sessions because these occur in their home and he talks them through in the sessions you are paying for. An odd couple -- you'll see she wrote reviews on his behalf below -- and experience.

    Chris is a great marriage counselor with great insight in helping couples get "out of their worlds"…read moreand improve their communication and overall relationship. Although he may be a bit unorthodox by using the Enneagram model which describes people's different basic personality types, it works. Knowing how you think, believe and view things is the first crucial step, and Chris does a great job of helping you understand yourself. His 'take home' material has been a great resource for my wife and I, allowing us to implement his methods with great success.
