He should have seen that his approach was not working and tried something different or told us he couldn't help us. But he was happy to take our money even though it should have been obvious to him that he wasn't helping us. Later I decided to call him and tell him this. He said come in and we can talk about it. When I did I was surprised that he brushed off my concern and charged me for the visit. He had only one tool in his toolbox and when that didn't work he was too lazy to try something else. I concluded that he wanted our money more than he wanted to help us.

I don't think words can truly capture how much Dee has impacted my life, but I'll try my best…read more I had the privilege of working with Dee for many years, and I can honestly say she changed my life in the most wonderful ways. From the very beginning, Dee gave me the tools and guidance I needed to make significant, positive changes in my life, especially in terms of my mental health. Her approach is not only professional, but also deeply compassionate. You don't get into this kind of work unless you truly care about people, and Dee genuinely cares. Her kindness, patience, and real interest in the betterment of others are what make her so special. After I moved to Arizona, I searched for someone who could even come close to the level of support and understanding Dee provided, but unfortunately, she isn't licensed here. I would give anything to be able to work with her again. If you're lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with her, I can't recommend her enough. She is a one-of-a-kind person--truly kind, compassionate, and invested in making a real difference in people's lives. I'll forever be grateful for the time I spent with her and the lasting impact she's had on me.

She is authentically compassionate so at the end of a session, her caring attitude doesn't stop. Many therapists are compassionate; Dee has something special. There's this well-spring of joy in her; so even during your darkest times, she holds this light and that gives you hope. Best of all; she's really sharp. Dee was able to get beyond the stories I'd told myself. She picked up stuff other therapists did not. I moved away or I'd still be seeing her. She is one of a kind - the best kind.

This update is in response to Larry F's comment on May 22nd, 2024…read more I'm in shock. Six years later, this man is still pursuing this and apparently continues to be in denial about the consistent feedback received from everyone involved in this case. I have compassion for mistakes being made with particular clients and mistakes not defining the practitioner. But it's unconscionable that this practitioner has, in the years since this case, contacted members of my family and support group and threatened legal action against me for writing a Yelp review that honestly shares my experience. That is not how to heal a situation! This case worked out well *in spite of Larry*. That he's now laying claim to the outcome as some kind of proof of his work is upsetting. And that he's saying my complaint is because my family had "a miscommunication" or because I'm not reachable is disingenuous and insulting. I stand by my original review and am horrified that this whole event is being cracked open again in this way.

My experience with Larry was horrendous. We were using him for a fairly simple intervention with…read moresomeone who was actually open to the process of going into a treatment facility. As someone who is a mediator, but too close to the situation, I had hired him so that he could be a neutral third party "expert". Unfortunately, our experience was that he poorly facilitated our intervention meeting, so much so, that the person we brought in who was open to going to intervention actually shut down and wasn't interested in going after his pitch. I had to take the person out of the office to talk to them privately along with calling the facility to get my friend to agree to going while he charged the family during the time we were outside his office. He also insists on taking your credit card up front, charges for all phone calls that he initiates, and doesn't check-in about the charges. He ended up charging us over $2000 for one meeting and did not actually help all that much, in fact, he actually hindered the process. The most frustrating thing of all was when he started trying to tell me I was in a codependent relationship with my friend and her boyfriend, who I was trying support. I had been supporting this process for exactly 1 week very intensely as my friend was suicidal and acting in ways that were dangerous. It was clear that Larry's method of working in the "family system" has become the filter in which he sees the world and he can no longer just see what is true. I would never use his services again and would caution others from using him as well. I wish I had looked him up here before hiring him as every one of his Yelp reviews reveal his incompetence and tell similar stories. As an illustration of the kind of things Larry does that create drama and are highly unethical: Today, 11/7/17, he called a friend of mine who had initially contacted him for hire to ask her to talk to me about getting this Yelp review removed which is both unethical and against Yelp rules. In the psychology world, this unhealthy behavior is called "triangulation", ironically one of the very things Larry is supposed to be teaching people to end. When I explained why I wouldn't remove the review to her, he proceeded to call me directly to try to "clear up" what went wrong. That conversation didn't go well. I stand by this review and Larry's horrible choices both as a therapist and a businessman. His behavior is outrageous.

Unfortunately for him, I had advanced information and experience regarding similar procedures being done worldwide, in Mexico, Panama, the Caribbean, Germany, Eastern Europe, etc. Rather than welcoming the depth and breadth of my research, information, and experience, the poor soul found it necessary to bestow a negative evaluation of my experience and research...and me. Strange as it may seem, he found it necessary to call me on under a pretense to find out my identity. I vote to give the seminar leader a vacation!

My therapy first began with Nancy Dagenhart in late 2003, as I recall. My intention for seeking a…read morecounselor was to find a talented professional who had the ability to assist in my continued emotional maturing and to be a partner for me in my life development. In other words, there was absolutely no major issues that I sought help for. I simply see mental health professionals as potentially so much more as a way of preventative and health support. I prayed for someone exceptionally well trained, skilled, and experienced. I also had the need for someone highly sensitive, brilliant, and quite spiritual (not religious at all). After just the first session with Nancy, I knew that I had found the right person with all these qualities. What I soon learned is that Nancy is also an extraordinary listener and communicator. I've even told her that sometimes listening to her choice of words, her construction of sentences, and manner in which she delivers her communication is literally music to my ears . . . even at times a work of art. It was always my choice to bring my girlfriends to Nancy with me for couples work early in a relationship. I knew that having Nancy, as a support resource, would not only benefit me and the growth of my relationship, it would also provide a resource for my girlfriend(s) individually if and when they needed support. I was in a steep experiencing mode with women from 2003 through 2010 and brought each relationship to Nancy from the get-go. Nancy provided unique insights and suggestions for my budding relationship(s) and the cycles that each relationship progressed through. I was always willing to look deeply at myself with profound honesty and accept any meaningful feedback that was presented to me. In those instances, I was told that I was able to change myself for the better very, very quickly. Having Nancy as a truly great associate for transformation is invaluable when one strives to become a progressively better and more evolved person. There are no words to express how grateful I am for being guided to Nancy Dagenhart and for how much Nancy helped me through many scores of sessions those 7 years. Nancy has always been there for me, with kindness, patience, and the greatest of care. Review 0006
