Good counseling but be sure you don't miss a session or you'll be charged $100 each time. I feel…read morethat paper billing or at least a phone call should have been made prior to so much time passing before the bill gets out of hand. My mentally ill suicidal child did not realize this was happening and during several crisis situations missed several appointments over the course of several months. When we finally received the bill 6 months later, it was outrageous. I don't have access to their portal so was unaware until months later when the bill came detailing what insurance had paid and late cancellation/no show charges. If this had been brought to our attention sooner, we could have prevented much of this & everyone would have been happier. The patient was never personally contacted to address the no show situation and it was not directly brought to her attention that she was being charged each time this happened. Don't tell me "she should have known, that's how this works," etc. there are grown, well-educated people who don't understand this stuff or how insurance works. The office staff needs to remember this & be sure the patient understands it as well.

Extremely disappointed in the lack of care provided at this facility. I have left other reviews…read moreabout this business on google and another yelp page hoping to help anyone seeking mental health care to avoid this place! The receptionist/secretary employed here is incompetent to say the least, they won't return your calls, emails, anything. They will actually HANG UP ON YOU for absolutely no reason, I was hung up on just for asking a question about one of the providers. I asked to be called back by a provider over a week ago and nothing. I was treated with extreme disrespect by the receptionist as well as the therapist I was assigned to. IF you are in need of mental health care please go anywhere but here and save yourself the time, money and more mental anguish this facility will cause because they truly don't care about their patients- its very obvious.

If you're in the Des Moines area (specifically Ames) and you're looking for a place to start your counseling. Look no further! If you're an ISU/ college student in the area this is also a great resource and I believe they have a discount for students. The people here make the process of getting set up easy and help ease any tension you may have coming in with a loving smile. I recommend checking out the website and getting set up via that or you can come in and get set up!

Example 1) One receptionist was scheduling me for my next appt, the receptionist between us on the phone loudly "shh'd" me. The first receptionist did nothing to correct her or put us in a better position to reschedule. Example 2) I had to reschedule my appt, got the answering machine, left message I had to reschedule. One week later I did not hear back so I call again, successfully make an appointment. The following day I see a voicemail from CIPS replying to my first voicemail saying they couldn't get me in for a while. The Counciling staff is great, the office staff should have been replaced years ago.
