The website states that she will reply within a day. I have yet to hear back from her. I get it therapists are swamped and it is hard to find a decent one.

I guess it's a good thing he wasn't in total dire distress because Jason could not be bothered to respond to calls, texts, or emails. Pretty lame and disappointing.

Not only did he listen and make me feel like he knew what I was talking about, you could feel that he cared. I was sad but not surprised to see him leave. With the couple months I saw him, he pointed me in the right directions, leaving me in some good hands. Since then, I still have had some ups, downs and big downs. But still I have the fighting spirit to get better. Glad to hear that Jason did what he set out to do.... Happy 4 you. Hope I get to set up an appointment soon.

I have never been treated so disrespectfully and harshly from someone claiming that they want to…read morehelp people. My husband and I went to see Mrs. Parker for some marriage counseling. On my individual appointment with her, I discussed my hopes in the future to have another baby. Mrs. Parker was very harsh and told me that "An unselfish mother would worry about the children she has now." She crossed the line and almost made me have a panic attack because she attacked me so very badly. She knew I had a lot of childhood trauma and very sensitive, but that did not stop her. She even knew she had crossed the line. I hesitantly went to the next appointment thinking some people just have bad days, maybe it wasn't a good time for her either. I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt. She apologized to me, explaining that I had been on her heart all weekend and that she was praying I would come back. She told me she got impatient as a therapist and tried to pull me out of it right then and there, but knew that she had to let me do the work and just guide me. Now, I should have seen all these warning signs, but since we only had one bad session, I continued to go. We were scheduled to see her every Wednesday evening. My husband had gotten hurt at work and had to spend several hours at the urgent care getting x-rays and stitches. It was about 2 hours before our appointment with Mrs. Parker, and I text her as soon as I found out to cancel. I also asked if we should make a payment because we had cancelled too close to our appointment. She text me back and stated " No. This is something you could not avoid. Emergencies happen sometimes. I understand that." And then let me know that "I am sorry he got hurt. I will see you next week." The following Monday, Mrs. Parker texts me to confirm my appointment for Tuesday afternoon. I was extremely confused because she told us we were scheduled every Wednesday and that we had that "slot". I thought there was some kind of mistake. The response that I received in return was awful. There really was a lack of empathy, sympathy, compassion, and general warmth. It's unfortunate that she is only concerned with dollars and cents.

Coming to counseling with Vickie has been a very positive experience. Basically working with her…read morehas restored and improved our marriage. My wife visited initially, then we started as a couple. Vickie works to equip us with tools and skills to communicate and improve our relationship. She's very good at listening and helping to find the root of the problem instead of just dealing with surface issues. The office is very comfortable, and she is punctual in getting from one appointment to the next. She is very good at telling you what you need to hear in a kind way, and giving you a map to help develop the necessary skills.

I appreciated that Haley was able to find us an appointment only two weeks out since we were having an urgent situation, however, apparently that wasn't enough time for Leah Shuffleton to review any of the paperwork before our appointment. This left a really sour taste in my mouth, especially since Leah mentioned in the session that she's doing this only part time as a second job. We cancelled all future appointments and are still pursuing divorce at this point. I will always wonder if things would have been different had we had a better chance at addressing our issues at that critical time.
