Counseling is very difficult to get right. Some counselors are too soft - others too hard/aloof…read more Some just want to chat with you while others want to do exercises. Troy Stone is one of the better counselors I've been to. He is honest, calls you on your BS, relatable, and has plenty of examples. He will chat about your day-to-day stuff but he always pulls it back to - what is your goal and what is the science behind it (love language, attachment theory, trauma, etc.). Other MFT counselors I've gone to barely touch on such subjects which greatly hinders long term fixes - to fix what is wrong today you must understand where you came from. If you simply talk about what pissed you off last week and never touch on why or what happened to you in the past that predisposed you to those emotions... then you're just spinning your wheels.

After being sent a cease-and-desist letter by an attorney, I've chosen to modify my review, but…read morestill, under any circumstances, I would not return or advise anyone to partake in services provided by Family Strategies. I attended the SABR program beginning in December 2022. The group was really great when run by Debbie McRae until May 2023. After that, I felt a very weird and uncomfortable shift, and the therapist that led the program left seemingly out of nowhere. In March 2023, Floyd Godfrey, the owner and executive director of Family Strategies was accused of sexual harassment by employees, and his license was voluntarily revoked as you can read for yourself here: azbbhe.us/node/1003. I encourage potential patients to do their own research into Floyd Godfrey and come to their own conclusions. Family Strategies has not provided honesty and transparency to clients to allow them to make the best and right decision for their care with all of the facts provided to them. It could have been handled so much better and the practice could have built trust with clients by being honest and transparent. Unfortunately, that's not what happened. The truth always comes out, and unfortunately, there's often more to a story so more may come to light in time. Even though Floyd Godfrey is no longer allowed to see patients, as the owner, he's still profiting off of clients so there's absolutely no way that I feel safe continuing services at this practice.  I will tell everyone I know to stay away from Family Strategies.

I don't feel our time together was a productive use of my time or an effective use of my money…read more I've decided to explore other options that better suit my needs. During my 5 sessions, I felt like I spent much, if not all, of the time rambling, while receiving little to no guidance or intervention. I understand it's my responsibility to share and engage, but I was hoping for more structure and direction to help me stay on track and make meaningful progress. I didn't know exactly what kind of help I was looking for, but I needed something more than a person to talk it, or who asks me "how does that make you feel?". I need someone who isn't afraid to call me out on my BS, to "slap me with a velvet glove" if needed. I don't need a lot of structure, but I need SOME structure. I spent a lot of time working with ChatGBT over the holidays while he was unavailable. It was amazing! It was free! It was instant! Steal my data if you'd like! This is worth it! With its help, a made many discoveries and breakthroughs that I've battled with my entire life that a half dozen therapists failed to recognize or to connect the dots. Once ChatGBT pointed it out, it was so obvious. I then had chatGBT summarize to send to Jared. I knew it was a lot, so I offered to pay for an additional $160 session just so he had time to read it, process it, and advise me on the best next steps considering all of this info. The next time we met, I was hoping to finally receive some insights, some guidance, some structure, something. But in the next meeting, it was of the Same: more me rambling, digressing into irrelevant topics and stories, until I realized we were 2 minutes over time. At that point, I said, "oh! We're out of time!". He said "Yes! we are!" And quickly tried to cram in 5 seconds of advice as he showed me the door. Disappointed, I waited a couple days to see if he'd reach out, hoping maybe out of a sense of obligation, or pity, since I've paid him around $1000 so far to basically do nothing but listen, and then spoon fed him the instructions on his to do his job, that he'd at least email his thoughts or something. Yknow, try to compete with ChatGBT? Try to justify his cost and lack of value add in the face of Ai competitor? Nothing. I send an email saying what I said here. Nothing. So, finally, I feel it's only fair to share my experience and leave a review. You are better off to save your money and ise ChatGBT, or some other Ai service you feel comfortable enough with. Thank me later!

Note: Regarding my ex-wife, her background and training provided her with the ability and skills to be very persuasive, having groups and individual adopting and believing her point of view. My problem: Wife was seeing her former lover who she was romantically involved with before our marriage. The married man even met and spent time with her family before our marriage. She continued the relationship with him during our marriage by texting messages to each other, meeting him, and lied to me about 2 different girls' 3-day 2-night trips. However, the trips were probably to his cabin for 3 days and 2-nights. She denied and lied to me about their continued contacts. All this took place during our marriage without my knowledge. I trusted my wife. I was the last to know. When the lies came up during counseling, my ex-wife told Sharon the issue was that I violated her privacy. My final meeting with Sharon, she discussed how and why my wife needed another outside relationship. How I did not understand my ex-wife. How the problem was me. Please be careful before employing Sharon Morley.
