He's lucky if he gets one star from me. No psychiatrist should ever make their patient cry and yell…read moreat them because their time is up when they didn't even call me on time. That falls on the degenerate of a doctor that he is. We went over my medications and he still got them wrong. And he wanted access to my family physician and I did give him that access but when my own family physician says that "there is something wrong with this guy" and I feel the same exact way but to hear it from my family physician just justified my means. For Dr. McNeil to laugh at me when I said don't you ever talk to me the way that you have been and he replied with "so you're sticking up for yourself" and I told him I will always stick up for myself. He is a disgrace to this psychiatric board whom I am reporting him to because I shouldn't have to get off the phone while having him on speaker so that my father and my ex fiancé could hear the way that he talks to me like a piece of shit. And they got their load of information by me talking to him on my last call with him. He said he is retiring at the end of the year well I think he needs to retire now if he called my family physician twice and didn't even know that he did in for his office staff to call me a liar and that "he would have it in his notes" my own family physician pulled up on the computer to show me when I saw him last week for a blood panel and he showed me the incoming calls in the outgoing calls and they all happened in one week yet Dr McNeil can't remember he talk to my physician in the same freaking week?!!! And because he screwed up his own appointments and called me 15 minutes later than my scheduled appointment with him and then kept yelling at me that he had another patient waiting well let then wait since I guess I'm a nobody to him that it's ok to screw up my appointment. He is the biggest hypocrite on the planet. We went over my medication and he still screwed it up! So I called my regular doctor up and he is prescribing me the medication that I need because Dr McNeil should have retired years ago if he can't remember talking to my family physician not once but twice. My family Physician will be calling my prescriptions in that he still managed to screw up. What psychiatrist is going to chuckle over the phone when I said I'm standing up for myself and his response was "oh you are fi ally sticking up for yourself... that's what you call an asshole and my dad had to bring me into the ER after having a severe panic attack from this stupid fuck of a psychiatrist don't you ever yell at me again you asshole and if you want to my father will call you up and tell you everything that he heard you yelling at me on the fucking phone. I take non of my swearing back cuz someone had to do it. I told my parents that when they get your next bill in the mail do not pay for it because all you did was make me cry and you don't deserve to screw up my medicines and have me deal with the pharmaceutical stuff on my own.

BEWARE!!!! DO NOT SEE THIS DOCTOR!!!! For 3 years she did noting but have me sit in her office and…read moreevery single time she would ask me what supplements I was taking that she had given me. I paid her $10,000 and did not receive $10,000 worth of care. He sales pitch person PROMISED me and my husband that Dr. Goldman had a whole slew of Dr's she would be able to converse with/get opinions and help from so that she could help me. Um Ya, no that NEVER happened!! My tests found that I have lyme and mold toxicity. She admitted she did not know how to treat them, but would "read up on it". She decided on one protocol she wanted to follow, then changed to another one. She wanted to start me on a nasal spray for the mold. I asked her about clearing my detox pathways first and she says, "detox pathways have nothing to do with clearing mold." NOW I KNOW MYSELF, without any medical knowledge, that my detox pathways have to be clear to detox the mold. After that I told her I wanted a PARTIAL refund because she hadn't helped me and I did not trust that she could help me since she admitted she didn't know how to treat lyme/mold and she did not acknowledge the need for detoxing. She had the nerve to say to me that I want a refund because I was angry that no one has been able to help me. "UM NO I NEED a refund because I have to pay for someone else to help me because you DIDN'T." I asked for a refund because this woman did not have the decency to OFFER me money back knowing she could not help me!

Another warning about this quack. JUST DON'T!!…read more She'd get (-) if an option. The point of this extra review is to save anyone from working w/her, to avoid the agony I suffered as her patient, plus reminders to check all psych Rx for side effects. When I started working with her in 2003, I was 46 years old, 5'3", weighed 120-123 wore small/xtra small. Except for when I was pregnant, and the pregnancy weight fell off. I started noticing the weight gain in '05, 2 years or so later. It was creeping up gradually, like I was now an 8 not a 6. Not obvious or major denial. I put it down to being over 50 + post menopausal In 2008, I had to take a physical for a new job, which included getting weighed. I was aware I gained "some" weight, but didn't expect, to my shock and horror, to weigh 188, a huge 65-68 gain. Even worse, 12 pounds from My hair became brittle and stayed that way for months. My blood work, always w/in normal limits, spiked, especially triglycerides. Blood pressure increased. My cognitive skills sets were definitely affected-slower, w/decreases in concentration and memory. I became easily fatigued and mentally lethargic. I became far more depressed than when I started w/her, and ending up meeting criteria for obese and stores for plus sized clothing. I never said a word to her about it, b/c by now I hated her but needed her wrist. She said nothing to me, perhaps because she was chunky and possibly qualified as Obese. I tried to convince myself that at 58, I earned the privilege of eating whatever I wanted and having a pregnancy sized stomach. It didn't work. I joined WW in 2012 and owe them. I had no interest in group meetings, so I negotiated with a coach to get weighted once a week. 2012/13 it cost $10/week. IDK if this option for group meeting avoiders is still available. 5 years after joining WW, in 2017, I weighed 130 and fit into a 6. By 2018- 15 years later-I made it back to 120-123. Mind you-I was 52 when I started with her. It took me 9 years-to age 61-to return to myself. But she treats depression. My blood work especially triglycerides flew into the Red range. This creature with the initials M.D. Mass Destruction and worse also had a terrible admin staff. They were rude and very cavalier about giving her patients' messages. She was always late refilling my Rx, especially my Klonopin. One time, I was starting to go through withdrawals, and went to our pharmacy for help. They all hated her for her arrogance and indifference to patient care. The head pharmacist got her on the line and told her that I was going into withdrawals and reminded her that failing to so was medical malpractice. His wrath left her w/no response except the only one I wanted my Rx. I am glad to see that drug companies and the medical profession-especially psychiatrists-have stopped lying, by omission or just lying, about meds that are weight gainers, create alarming spikes in blood work and other serious side effects. I wrote a complaint to the IDFPR and as expected heard nothing. I was satisfied that the Board notifies all licensed professionals when they receive a complaint, which would disturb her composure. You may wonder why, after almost 20 years, I remain so bitter and full of rage. I saw her for family and work concerns, common for a woman in her mid-40's, and to alleviate minor and annoying depression symptoms. I ended up unrecognizable, with borderline severe blood work, decline in my cognitive skills sets, apathetic, lethargic and more adjectives. I lost almost a decade of me. In my favor is that with life-defining crises, I will never back down. JUST DON'T!!

A friend referred me to Lighthouse after she and her husband saw Dr. Kadkhodaian and Jean for…read morecouples synergy. I was at my wit's end after seeing at least 4 other couples therapists that offered standard "vanilla" advice with no change. I assumed this was like any other couples therapy but with 2 professionals instead of 1. With nothing to lose, my partner at the time and I went in for what I affectionately now call "spiritual boot camp." Jean and Ray have a unique approach to their therapy backed by a mix of data, psychology, history, Kabbalah, and what I can only assume is MAGIC. They have an uncanny ability to read people and see thru B.S. allowing them to get to the root of issues faster and without judgement. If you're a fan of Brene Brown, Jean refers to this concept of eliminating shame (both within yourself and for those around you). I've been going to Lighthouse for 4 years now--even after moving 30 miles away & 2 failed attempts to get my advice/healing elsewhere. Sometimes I still leave sessions upset (because I know Jean is right and has hit a sore spot) but I ALWAYS have a sense of clarity and peace afterwards. It's not easy work bc they will push you if change is really what you're looking for--but well worth it!

My experience having been treated here was relieving at first as I really needed serious attention…read moreand help, but slowly became unprofessional. This is not the location to choose if you are looking for long-term healing. The advice and insight I've been given felt like a bandaid compared to a lot of the complex and deeper issues I was struggling with. I didn't feel care or empathy at all from Katarina. The office started ghosting me, and have not gotten any response from her. Coming out of my sessions I felt unimportant, I felt like my issues and struggles didn't matter. This place didn't feel like a lighthouse. Matters got worse when I was asking for a note, or signing papers for work. The attitude towards me became cold. If it was out of their capabilities, I wish they tried referring me to a different location, helping me reach out to the actual help I needed. I felt so lost and stressed especially in the state I was in already. I felt threatened to have a session or not. Please, take the time to listen, be patient, understanding, responsive, and act with care as all these patients are going through tough times. Edit* After writing this review, I experienced an unsavory set of actions in order for me to take down this review, thus slowing my healing process. I have no doubt they have helped individuals before, but the unsavory actions indicate large red flags for this business. I advise caution. After every session, Katarina would just walk away like time was up that's it. I just felt like a stranger that she had to talk to for one hour and then that's it. Being a social worker, I felt it lacked the empathy and warmth. I've never felt as if she tried to understand me. I switched to my old psychologist and after just one session with him I felt hopeful. I expressed my concerns and he showed me empathy and a willingness to work things through.

Controversial review? Perhaps. With mental health problems still holding a stigma, I admit that…read moreI've suffered from depression and anxiety for many years. As such, a long time ago I chose to put my feelings aside and seek help. Through random chance, I chose North Shore Wellness Center. Because of the way some people view this, I did not seek guidance but rather searched for which doctors were covered by my insurance plan, checked a few medical website to learn about the doctors and chose one of the psychiatrists here. As the person facing challenges, you don't always recognize the signs. It is only when others tell you something is wrong, which can be embarrassing and insulting, do you know you should seek someone out. Over the years, the doctors I have seen at Northshore Wellness have been of tremendous help. Yes, Psychiatrists primarily dispense and manage medication. Northshore Wellness also offers counseling services with Psychologists and Social Workers. I have had an off and on again relationship with a therapist, too, who has helped me get through some tough times. In the middle of a tough time, I was transferred by my company out of the area. I found help in my new city - actually I tried several Psychiatrists and Psychologists but none were able to help. Things degraded. I moved back to Chicagoland and went back do see the doctors here. Without their services and support, I'm not sure where I would be today. The practice has about a dozen or so doctors and therapists. I believe they have two locations. I go to their Northbrook clinic. As I sit in the waiting room, people are clearly nervous, worried that someone will recognize them - the stigma associated with mental health sucks. They have a wide variety of therapists with differing specialties - parents bring their young children, adolescents show up for help and many adults. If you are worried and need help, they are in a business park off the beaten path where you walk down a narrow walkway between buildings to get to the door. So, the chance of being seen by prying eyes is very minimal. Personally, I hate that people don't understand that mental illness is typically something people don't recognize or have any direct control over. The reality is, with help, you can learn coping strategies. With medication, any chemical cause can be alleviated or minimized. The first step and the hardest part is recognizing and understanding you need help. Once you seek help and you meet the doctors, you learn they are compassionate, understanding, available, and well worth your time. If you suspect you may have a problem, or more importantly, others suggest you should talk to someone, seek their advice. Northshore Wellness is the first place I would recommend to others.
