I was abused in this building on a weekly basis between the years of 1994-2005 when I was a child…read more The worst was VC, who would physically strike me and also threaten me if I did not take medication that the FDA had not approved for children. When it had obvious side effects, he threatened to have my parents jailed if they did not continue treatment. SF took over his treatment when I was in high school and would simply turn her hearing aids off whenever I spoke unless I was acquiescing to her course of treatment. She similarly threatened me and prescribed medications that caused an arrhythmia, but she said I had to be taught a lesson. I discontinued all treatment at this site the day I turned 18 and could take control of my own medical care. New York refuses to strip VC or SF of their licenses or to prosecute them for child abuse due to the amount of time that passed between their abuse and my finally being in a place to report them. This building should be razed to the ground, the staff sent to mandatory re-education for their participation in child abuse, and then banned from ever again working in a field involving children, enforceable though placement on a national watch list.

I wish I had read more reviews before starting therapy here. It's been a while since I was a…read morepatient, but a number of red flags still stand out. For my very first session, I was mistakenly sent a video link to another person's appointment -- a clear HIPAA violation. Throughout my time there, I saw multiple therapists who often showed up late, seemed distracted, or even dozed off during sessions. I was pressured to try therapy formats I had already said I wasn't comfortable with, like group therapy, and when I declined, I was treated like I was being difficult. I also felt strongly pressured to go on medication, and when I expressed that I didn't feel it was the right path for me, I was met with resistance and made to feel like a problem rather than a person. Instead of feeling supported, I felt gaslighted, invalidated, and eventually bullied out of continuing care. I had gone in hoping for professional help, but I left feeling worse and more discouraged than before.

I am editing my original review because I received a cease-and-desist letter from gavia's attorneys…read moreand I don't want to take any chances with my own career. But I stand by what I said in the earlier reviews and I will simply say now: as you would when considering working with any therapist, make sure they are happy where they work. Many will never be honest about this as they need an income. So you'll have to trust your instincts. But do trust your instincts in choosing a clinic and a therapist. I will also say that I find it rather telling that instead of taking me up on my attempts to collaborate, the owners and other clinicians of gavia chose to stonewall me and are now threatening me with legal action instead of taking a long hard look in the mirror. Bullying behavior. They don't want me telling my story because it makes them look bad... but they somehow rationalize threats?! Fascinating logic. Spending time and resources to threaten an ex-employee who so clearly ONLY ever had the intention of protecting clients is very revealing. I have news for you gavia, not everyone is going to like you and we have this thing called, the first amendment. As far as I know, in order to have a case against me, they would have to prove intended or unintended harm. The only people who have been harmed are me and the clients that gavia abandoned when they fired me. Retraumatizing! I have consistently tried to invite collaborative efforts to no avail. Legal threats and stonewalling will not produce results that help everyone involved... it is more of a financial interest as the cease and desist makes clear. Read the tealeaves. Before you choose to pursue therapy at gavia, do your homework.
