The first visit was on 4/22 and she ended up talking more than I did which perhaps was her way to…read morebuild rapport. Once she found out we're both from the same area in Marietta and the same doctor birthed our children, she immediately knew who I was, why my circle is the way it is, and would find commonalities between the two of us. Instead of listening to me and asking probing questions.. she would go into her own story and then my hour was up. That happened the first two visits. The third visit I did my homework and we barely discussed it. I mustered up the courage to ask her to stop cutting me off because I needed to talk through this and she said okay but your hour is up. For the fourth appointment, she texted me the day before, "Morning, I am in Alabama with a family emergency and was going to call u to reschedule. I will contact later today or tomorrow to set up new appt." Well that was 5/12 and still haven't heard from her. As others mentioned she doesn't give receipts for visits and you have to pay your copay in cash because she doesn't like using Square (because they take part of her pay). She doesn't have a receptionist or front desk so there isn't anyone to schedule or talk to if she is in a session. She has two cell phones that she WILL look at during your session as though you don't matter. I will never go back and would not recommend anyone to see her.
