Do NOT go to Richard at Achor Counseling. Me and my boyfriend went to the Achor Counseling Center…read morein East providence. We had the owner and social worker Richard Figueira as our counselor for 3 sessions. He NEVER showed up for our 4th session at 10am. We waited almost a half an hour then left him a note and left. I expected at least a phone call with an apology and an attempt to reschedule. NOTHING! I even called the office about 1-2 weeks later and spoke with someone who answered and explained what happened. She apologized but we still never heard form our therapist Richard Figueira. How thoughtless and unprofessional. At first I thought his blunt straightforward style would be helpful for couples to get to the heart of the matter quickly and effectively. Instead, he was just plain negative and rude stating "You two have lots of problems that I do not know if they can be fixed." I think it's more that he is incapable of fixing anyones problems as he obviosly has too many of his own.

I've built up a great relationship with my councilor, which is why this review gets 2 stars instead…read moreof 1, but it didn't really help me too much and was hardly professional. She would use the phone during our sessions, would barely talk, and even misgendered me multiple times for months after I came out to her as trans (I had to aggressively ask her to stop, and I will say she made an effort but it wasn't too effective). I basically fidgeted with toys and talked to myself for 3 years. Never was really offered many coping skills, tips, etc. save for a few pieces of paper with activities that were clearly not aimed at my age group (saw her from about 15y-18y) mostly just had someone to talk to. She was frequently late, and quite a few time was not even there for an appointment (many times she was sick or had very good reason not to be, but no one contacted me and I ended up waiting for an hour or more) no secretary or person to ask questions in the waiting room, just a tiny window to the main office that usually has its blinds pulled. Good luck getting any help with scheduling or payment there. I went to their resident psychologist (no longer available I guess, thank heavens!!) to get prescribed medication. They did not take insurance and I spent ~2000 dollars to get laughed at and handed a piece of paper with "prozac" scribbled on it. I'm not kidding. This Dr. did not give a shit about me. She actually laughed when I told her about my past problems with drugs, suicide, self-harm and abuse, and then didn't even discuss treatments with me. Honestly, if you're looking for someone to talk to, be my guest. I only went here because they were one of the few places that accepts neighborhood, but there are many places out there that are probably more than worth the price.

I loved Equine Evolution, the owner Sam, and the animals. I went there for a year in a half and had…read morea strong relationship with all the animals and I did find it the missing piece in my healing.... HOWEVER the owner is NOT professional and beware if she gets angry- she will "go off" or literally write you off and refuse to let you terminate and/ or say goodbye to the animals. As an in individual with trauma and abandonment issues not saying goodbye to the animals after knowing them for 18 months, was like a sudden death and devastating. The owner writes her program as "counseling and life coach" as well as a mental health service, but unfortunately she can't work with someone that is having those days of really "struggling" ... As I said, the mission of Equine Evolution is amazing, the horses and donkey are the best, but knowing that after knowing someone for 18 months In a professional / therapeutic way and she can just drop them with no goodbye and no termination is enough for me to say she's unprofessional, and handled things very poorly and it's very sad because the devastation of not saying goodbye to the animals is what I'm going to remember about Equine Evolution

I've been a patient here for about 5 years. The staff was always awful but they've gotten so much…read moreworse since the doctor retired. They "forgot" to refill my rx for over a month despite several calls from both the pharmacy and myself. Only when I said I'd report them (which I am doing today) did they respond. Their response was "oh I thought she did that". After being passed to a new provider when the dr retired, she left after a couple of months and I was passed to yet another person, Inez. She kept cancelling my appointments with no explanation, just a text saying cancelled. These people are lazy and they don't care about you at all, they have no idea how important consistency is with the meds they prescribe. Do not waste your time here.

I have been a patient at this practice for nearly 11 years. I have diagnosed ADHD, along with other…read morechronic medical conditions that impact my daily life. Today, I called to cancel an appointment due to a legitimate physical health concern (sun poisoning), and I was threatened with termination from the practice if I canceled again. This kind of policy is not only ethically disturbing, it may violate multiple federal and professional standards. According to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), it is illegal to discriminate against or penalize patients for medical conditions -- physical or mental. The American Medical Association (AMA) also clearly states that physicians must not abandon patients, and that termination of care must involve clear documentation, adequate notice, and non-discriminatory reasoning. To make matters worse, the individual making this threat was not my provider, but the office manager, Liz -- who claimed she had the authority to unilaterally terminate patients for canceling appointments, even for medical reasons. If Liz accessed or acted upon information in my personal medical record without direct clinical justification or HIPAA training, that also raises serious concerns about HIPAA violations. Office administrators are not legally authorized to enforce medical decisions without provider oversight. This facility claims to serve people dealing with trauma, anxiety, and mental health conditions -- yet shows zero compassion, flexibility, or professionalism toward long-term patients managing chronic health issues. If this is how they treat someone with a decade-long record of commitment, I fear for those in more vulnerable circumstances.
