DO NOT GO HERE!!! All of these reviews let me know we are not alone. I have never written a yelp…read morereview before but this was so bad, that I feel like it's necessary. Most of the staff were rude and the very few that did care were overworked. Ridgeview made everything worse and I had to nurse my wife back to health upon release. Due to one of the 3 attacks she experienced, we are now drowning in hospital bills and had to replace dentures (6 grand). Taking her to Ridgeview was one of the worst mistakes ever. Back in February, my wife went here due to mania/hypomania caused by a new antidepressant her psychiatrist gave her. On her first day, she was attacked (the first time out of 3) and taken to the ER. During the attack (punched in the face), she was knocked out, and her brand new implant dentures were knocked out. She was attacked at 11am and they got her to the hospital so late, she had to stay the night. I thought it would be going on their insurance but we started receiving bills a month later. The staff member who called me to tell me about the attack was completely rude. When I asked what happened she screamed at me, saying "I just told you, she was attacked!!" I asked her "how did it transpire" and she then got frustrated not knowing what the word "transpire" means. I was then told when she gets back from the hospital they're gonna move her out of that unit, the ICU. She got back the next day and they didn't move her and she got attacked again (punched in the face repeatedly by another patient, yet again) . While she was at the hospital. I got a call from the nurse practitioner for the psychiatrist there. He told me they had no record of my wife's medications. I told him to contact her psychiatrist, made sure he had the number, and then spent the next week telling anybody who would listen to contact her psychiatrist. No one ever did. After 7-10 days, I was wondering why she wasn't getting better. While there, she was getting noticeably worse. Once released, I found out that they were not only giving her the medication that she had the reaction to but had upped it five times the amount she was taking before going there. On top of that, they were also giving her a very large dose of Depakote. That was to sedating her so much, she was falling asleep in chairs. That med was only hiding the mania. When I looked up the medicine it said do not take if you have "liver or pancreas issues." I was appalled they were giving her that since my wife has had pancreatitis multiple times in the past 10 years and they were all well aware of that. It could've killed her. She was released on a Monday and they told us she had an appointment with her psychiatrist, the next Monday at 1:30. After a few days, I called the psychiatrist office to see if we could get an emergency visit because of the worries with the medicines. That's when I learned there wasn't an appointment even made. Whichever Ridgeview employee wrote down the date and time for the appointment completely made it up. Now, just like when she was there, I can not get in touch with anyone. We have all these hospital bills from them not keeping her safe. I have contacted the patient advocate multiple times and wrote an email but have not heard anything back. From reading the newer reviews, she probably has her hands full. The incompetence with this place was so over the top, I'm shocked it is open. Needs to be shut down. A person looking for help, shouldn't be coming out mentally, physically, and financially worse.

Avoid this place if at all possible. While the nurses and a few (few) of the techs that work the…read morecottage for seniors were nice, most of the tech workers were rude and non-caring. My wife was physically yanked out of her bed (read that again) by a tech worker because "we don't lay down during the day around here". She saw people fall out of their chair only to be yelled at (for falling out) by the tech workers and either told to get up or were basically "placed" back in their chair (read between the lines here). We are talking about senior citizens here. She knew to keep her mouth shut out of fear. The A/C for her cottage either wasn't working (June, in Georgia) or it was set too high. Yet in the Admin building, it was nice and cool. And if you try to call them, have fun with that, if you can understand them. The exception were the H/R personnel, as they were nice over the phone and you could understand them. The lady who went over your bill when checking out was professional. But the lady behind the admin desk (the one with the fake eyelashes) that you have to deal with when receiving your loved one's personal items needs to be replaced with someone that has customer service skills. She does not! The doctor was nice but spent little time when meeting with my wife. But he did help my wife which I am thankful for. A beautiful place on the outside looking in. A nightmare for those inside looking out.

My wife and I went to Linda Winship for marriage counseling. I'm a fan. I've been to a few…read moretherapists, and Linda is my favorite. Linda has a funny personality. She puts you at ease well, isn't stuffy, and is generally a fun person to interact with. I think her quirky personality makes her easy to talk to and get along with. Even with her friendly personality, she knows how to direct the sessions. She also seems practical as we had homework and gave advice for our issues. She seemed to be eager to help us on our problems instead of just being a "listener." She seems non-judgmental and fair. With other counselors, I might have felt some sort of bias against certain things, but I didn't get that vibe from Linda. She didn't jump to conclusions much. If she did, she did a good job filtering out any bias or judgement. She also started and ended our sessions on time. I appreciated that. Also, we had 8 free session through my insurance. After the 8 sessions, she gave an option to continue or not. I liked how she gave us an option to continue. And she didn't give any pressure to continue seeing her if we didn't need to. I believe that unless you have severe issues, you shouldn't need to see a therapist forever. They should be able to help you deal with your issues and let you move on. I think Linda is that type of therapist. If you're in need of a therapist for whatever issue, I recommend Linda Winship.

I have had the pleasure of Linda Winship's counseling since 2011. I met Linda through my primary…read morecare physician at a most difficult time of my life, and I was able to obtain the assistance I needed with Linda's help. I continued to see Linda for counseling twice a week for two years, and in June 2013, I moved to Arizona, and it was difficult to find a psychiatrist for medication much less a therapist. Linda has afforded me the opportunity to continue therapy via telephone conference at first once a week and now every two weeks. I have never met a more compassionate person in my life. Everything is for the good of the patient. Any person needing psychological counseling for anything would be doing themselves a favor by seeking counsel from Linda Winship.
