Actually so strange and unprofessional. I came into the practice, clearly requesting serious mental health assistance (EMDR/DBT therapy) in addition to restarting mood stabilization and another anxiety medication that would work better for me than vistaril. Dr. Iqbal immediately brought up how she cannot prescribe benzodiazepines.. who said anything about benzos?? Weird . I am trying to treat CPTSD and have been consistently triggered in the past couple of weeks leading to a very deteriorated mental state. She was asking the questions off the sheet and I know I am not doing well so I told her I think you should select yes for all of them. For some reason this "professional" decided to get catty with me and say really?? You're not moving right now!! Yeah every time I try to stay present I move in some way, not when I'm disassociated (HOW TF DO YOU THINK IVE SURVIVED TRAUMA). I should've learned from how I felt unheard by this practice previously, they do not care and will likely treat you like you're lying and they know SO much better. I wonder why the U.S has such a mental health crisis with professionals like this. Very unfortunate too because literally every other person I interacted with in that office is so so kind , the receptionist was incredibly helpful in directing me to another facility too! But the psychologists will not take you or your concerns seriously. For your own mental wellbeing, go anywhere else. Patients deserve a mental health professional with a stronger emotional capacity than its patients. read more

If they assign you Kesha Phillips I would suggest you go with someone else. It has been my experience she lacks nuance to handle complex issues. She cut me off and push medications even after I refused several times. She took long established treatments plans and change them within a 15 minute appointment. The office hours are impossible for anyone who works a job. The managers do not call you back. I would strongly suggest you seek treatment elsewhere. read more

If I could do 0 stars I would. Run don't walk as far away from this place as possible. In the beginning it was ok and the doctor (Dr Bloch) was great. Then they transferred her out and refused to let her keep me as a patient (despite her requests). I then got Dr Wei Wang, who is a terrible doctor who has no bedside manner or ability to properly speak to patients. She was accusing me of things I never said and would harp over and over. She is very unprofessional and doesn't seem to care about anything other than financially profiting off of pharmaceutical drugs. I told her I don't want to take any more or different medication. She told me she it didn't matter why I wanted because she wanted me to be on different random drugs that aren't even prescribed for my diagnosis. This woman is so negligent that she filled 1 medication with the wrong mg amount and completely forgot to refill my other medication. The medication she forgot to fill is not a medication to mess around with it miss doses. I have been calling for weeks trying to rectify this issue but no one gets back to me. I found another practitioner elsewhere who is great. I will be reporting Hunterdon behavioral health as well as Dr Wei Wang for negligence and malpractice. It's really disgusting the little regard they have for patients when they are masquerading as a mental healthcare provider. DO NOT RECOMMEND!! read more

Terrible. These people care about one thing and that's getting your money. I've gone here for a few years and it's a nightmare to get a hold of anybody. You can call at any time during the day regarding your appointment and I can guarantee nobody will answer. I also had issues with them billing my insurance wrong and trying to foot me the bill. They made sure it was a disaster to get that resolved as well. The woman I spoke to about the claims was condescending and steadfast in that they did nothing wrong and refused to help saying I was responsible for almost a grand in bills. I called every day and they kept saying I needed to speak with a certain woman whom handles the claims. I called her extension every single day for two months and left voicemails.... Not once did she answer nor call me back. Absolutely pathetic and really quite frankly she shouldn't be employed there seeing as she doesn't care about the patients that go there for help. My insurance company had to get the issues resolved themselves. I cannot reiterate enough how badly I can't stand this place. I wouldn't recommend them to anybody. Quite frankly this place should be looked into and shutdown. read more

The only reason why I went here is because there are only 4 private therapists listed under my insurance and none of them are taking new patients until 2019. I've had 2 sessions so far at HBH and I feel like I've gotten nothing accomplished. Basically the sessions amounts to nothing more then a yoga session without the stretching. I need cognitive behavioral therapy. So far the only thing that this woman has told me to do is to listen to guided meditation before bed, and when I told her that this was giving me nightmares she said "oh, okay, so maybe that's not the best route for you. Why don't I show you how to practice being mindfu to help keep you in the present so your mind doesn't wander to the past and the future. Close your eyes and be mindful of your environment. How do things sound, feel, and smell?" I mean being able to talk yourself off of an emotional ledge is a great skill to have, but if we do not heal and get to the root of what put you on the ledge in the 1st place at some point you're just going to wind up being back on the ledge. There's a saying that "a rotten root produces rotten fruit". You can pluck as much moldy fruit as you want off that tree but It doesn't solve the underlying problem. We need to address the mess causing the stress not just breathe our way through the stress. I think a place might be ok for minor issues. For example, let's say your husband just died 6 months ago and you need help working through your grief. However, I don't think that it's the best fit for somebody who needs help with years worth of accumulated stuff. I'm going to quit while I'm ahead, cancel my next session, and get on the waiting list for a private therapist. read more

I do not have complaints about the counselor that I saw, but the actual office and the people who are running it are the worst. They do not care about the patients, are totally unorganized, and it is almost impossible to actually speak to a person. You will get an answering machine the majority of the time - and good luck with follow through. The people you speak with are rude and have no interest in helping you. Today will be my last appointment with my counselor and it has nothing to do with her - but everything to do with the people who run it. I removed my son from their care as well - during a crisis they refused to get him an appointment and would not let me speak to his doctor, even though there was signed release for me to do so. read more

I have been going here for 12 yrs My last 3 visits were horrible ... The woman keep lowering my anxiety meds I have IBS,Panic attacks . depression and no matter what I tell her she keeps ;lowering it I am thinking of finding a new Dr. I was in the Er 3 times for anxiety attacks and it makes no differance Im 67 yrs old read more

To put things bluntly, and crudely this place sucks. Their office staff is particularly BAD! They are rude,overbearing, it's hard to get a word of explanation, in edgewise, into the conversation, when you're on the phone. I had a counselor, as I tried to explain the trouble I was having with her office, tell me over and over again, "you have to let it go". That, and other problems that's all she said "you have to let it go". I was trying, but the more she said it the tighter wound I was becoming. She then changed my meds , and sent home saying I should try counseling. This is just one of the many problems I have had. The other ones are just as bad, but I don't have time to write a book! read more

I went in for my first visit and spilled my guts to the woman who then proceeded to bring my mom into the room and tell her everything I had just said in confidence. I was am emotional wreck afterward and was completely shocked that someone would do that. I'm also fairly certain that is illegal. Will never be going back here and I suggest you don't either. read more

I called because of a bill i received stating i didn't pay my copay. I called to complain and all i got was attitude and people threatening to hang up on me. How are you supposed to conduct a business like this. That's just the billing department. The therapists are terrible. The lady they had put me with kept looking at the clock and the time to hurry our session up. And when talking to her i felt like i couldn't say anything because she was just there to do a job and not to sit and help me with my problems. They have also cancelled so many of my appointments that i have needed and kept rescheduling me but with my work schedule it was nearly impossible. I had also went here when i was 14 and the therapist told my mom that i was such an angry child i needed to be heavily medicated. That was said within the first 30 minutes of my app. How are you supposed to properly asses someone within 30 minutes of meeting them. Coming here has made me not want to get help at all because these people are terrible read more

They are the worst here. I've been going here on and off since I was 16 and I'm 20 now. I've had to go for intake three times (intake being they get a vague diagnosis and they have to retake it after a certain amount of time has passed). The first two times I was still a minor and the lady doing intake told my mother everything I had said, leaving me traumatized. If it was life threatening I could understand, but it wasn't and I begged her not to take me back there anymore. I saw them the last time about a year ago. I had my abusive ex waiting in the lobby and she pulled him in the room after doing intake and told him and that's not a great story. The therapists here have the same ability as me stapling my hands together and trying to make a sandwich while on fire. I had the therapist named Bruce and he is the most condescending person ever. He belittled me whenever I would start to tell him about my family or my work. And don't even think you'll be getting an appointment with their psychiatrist within the next five years. Better off looking for a therapist and getting your meds from your regular doctor. read more

This office is difficult to deal with. You get shuffled around to doctors and nurses over time. Each time you have to explain your history all over again. There is no consistency. You're made to wait beyond your appointment times frequently, but when I was 5 minutes late, they refused me to be seen. There are so few options for psychiatric care within the insurance network, but I'm never coming back here. They don't treat people well. read more
