Batenburg had been recommended to me and I waited to get my child in to see her for three months. As a result of our second visit, she called CPS to report me as a neglectful parent. Batenburg has had my child on her schedule for 5 months without even reaching out to my child's therapist of three years to gain background information. Completely unprepared and unprofessional. She took information that I volunteered to her and used it against me, as well as readily taking my $700 for those initial two visits. I am a single mother dealing with a child with serious trauma for three years. I have gotten her the absolute best help I knew to get with professionals helping me make the hard decisions. This woman took maybe 20 minutes total in these two sessions to talk with me about my child. Her job is to gather as much information and history from the other professionals working with our children, then make educated decisions and recommendations for care. Batenburg has had no time, and taken no measures to truly understand the depth of our situation and when she said, "I think I will have to file with CPS for neglect", I was dumbfounded. She then quickly ushered my child and I out of her office. This is the first Google review I have ever left but I want to share this information with any other parents who have been in the trenches with a child, trying their best to keep that child alive. Batenburg is not the psychiatrist to trust. I cannot begin to express the extent of my feelings of frustration and betrayal. Is there a credible child psychiatrist in Central TX??? read more
