    My parents sought couples counseling hoping for a neutral, professional environment where both of…read morethem would feel heard. Instead, they experienced one of the most unprofessional and damaging therapy sessions they have ever had. Throughout the session, Brian repeatedly sided with my father while criticizing and belittling my mother. He called her "controlling" and even a "gold digger"--labels that were judgmental, humiliating, and completely inappropriate coming from a mental health professional. Rather than helping them communicate or understand one another, he seemed intent on tearing my mother down. She left the session feeling attacked, embarrassed, and emotionally devastated. The most shocking part was that at the end of the appointment, Brian told them he only wanted to continue therapy with my father. That completely undermined the purpose of couples counseling. Instead of working to help the relationship or support both partners equally, he effectively dismissed my mother and chose one side. As they were leaving, he said "adiós" to my Hispanic mother while simply saying "goodbye" to my white father. Whether intentional or not, it came across as insensitive and left my family feeling disrespected. A couples therapist's role is to create a safe, balanced, and impartial environment--not to shame one partner, take sides, and end the session by suggesting he would rather only work with the other spouse. My parents paid for professional guidance and instead walked away feeling judged, humiliated, and worse off than when they arrived. Based on their experience, I would strongly discourage anyone seeking couples counseling from choosing this provider. Dr. Cristina Marier

    I booked an appointment with Diana Bryan-Travis twice and cancelled services with her after…read morediscovering fraud. This provider fraudulently billed my insurance with a false diagnosis to justify her reason for billing and then falsified my records in her notes. I reached out to the director multiple times Bill Rush asking him to send me my entire assessment. I explained in multiple letters that this provider Diana Travis -Bryan falsified my records for monetary gain and refused to redact it. After multiple requests sent to Bill for redaction, Bill Rush ignored all of my concerns and has not sent my records. I filed complaints with the professional board of Psychology. This provider is the reason why DHS is very present in Minnesota. "Christian" them does not mean the same as Following Christ. Avoid this provider at all costs, and check your insurance provider to find out if a false diagnosis was given to secure payment.
