Several years ago I was in several groups led by Diane and was having individual therapy sessions as well . I remember one session I had with Diane during a particularly bad week . I began the session with her by responding to her question of what my mental status was like . I always believe in being honest and transparent with the therapists I have had in the past . I told Diane that I was having ideations of hurting myself but had no intention of following through with it . As soon as I said that , she ended the session and informed me that she was no longer going to see me in individual therapy. The reason I say that she is dangerous because she had no idea what I was thinking and sent me out of her office to go home in an unstable condition made worse by her actions. Her behavior was extremely damaging to my psyche . I felt rejected . I felt as though she wasn't willing to help me process what I was thinking and let me go home alone without any intervention at all . I should mention my diagnoses are depression, anxiety, C-PTSD, and I am a childhood trauma victim. I believe her actions were unethical and dangerous .

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.

Janet is not a counselor, she's not there to talk about your feelings or give you "homework" to make you feel better. She's there to manage your medication and ensure that it is working as it should. She's not a teddy bear, but she is friendly and professional and intelligent about what she does; I'll take that any day. I've found that Janet is not typically late and she expects you to be on time as well. If you are late, she reduces your appointment time so she's not late for the next patient. This is how it should be in my opinion, as I don't want my schedule mucked up because you couldn't be on time. If you're looking for someone who is simply amazing at what she does and who gets results, I highly recommend Janet Callahan.

In the end, while very emotional, I asked for some concrete details on future sessions and how it would be effective. This apparently offended her as she stood up and told me I could have her refer me to someone else and walked out. She didn't even give me a second to collect myself, shake my hand, or look me in the eye as she very quickly said bye. I was then forced to be in front of a group of strangers still crying while I paid my co pay. I was embarrassed and felt that someone who has been in this industry as long as Dr.Drake should understand why people want to know their treatment is going to be effective as it can be expensive and takes time out of their day. I left feeling guilty and hurt which is not how an individual should leave a therapy session. Dr. Drake if you don't enjoy your work do not push that onto clients/patients.

I sought her help in good faith, hoping to improve communication within my marriage. At the time, I was navigating a demanding career transition, which limited my availability for sessions. Meanwhile, my husband was able to attend more frequently and began meeting with her individually. Over time, I felt that this imbalance significantly affected the dynamic. Melinda appeared to view my husband as "more invested," and the process became increasingly one-sided. The situation escalated when she included both of us in a group text and openly criticized me, labeling me as the primary issue in our relationship. This felt unprofessional and deeply inappropriate for someone in a counseling role. The aftermath of this experience was damaging. It reinforced a harmful dynamic in my marriage, ultimately contributing to our separation. One of my biggest takeaways is the importance of working with a licensed therapist for marriage counseling. Licensed professionals are held to ethical standards and oversight, which helps protect clients in vulnerable situations. In contrast, life coaches and hypnotherapists are not bound by the same regulatory boards. I share this not out of spite, but in the hope that others will carefully consider their choice of support and seek qualified, licensed professionals when dealing with something as important as their relationship.

I originally found AZRI while searching for individual trauma therapy. Ironically, my experience…read morewith the counseling ultimately became one of the most distressing therapeutic experiences I have had. To be fair, the front desk staff were excellent. They were responsive, professional, quick to return messages, transparent with billing, and the text communication line was incredibly convenient for someone who works long hours. Unfortunately, those positives did not translate to my experience with the counseling itself. During couples counseling, I expressed directly that I felt invalidated during our sessions. Rather than exploring why I felt that way, the counselor explained that I could not be invalidated because I had sought out her help and, by providing therapy to me, she was therefore validating me. I found this response incredibly dismissive. If a client says, "I feel invalidated by what is happening in this session," telling them that invalidation is essentially impossible because they voluntarily sought therapy does not address the concern. It shuts the conversation down. The session continued to escalate in a way that left me feeling increasingly uncomfortable. At the end of the session, the counselor apologized to my husband in front of me that the session had not been more fruitful because of my difficulty. I found that extremely unprofessional and deeply hurtful. I went to therapy expecting a safe environment in which difficult emotions could be addressed constructively, not to feel as though I was being characterized as the reason therapy had failed. I also felt substantial pressure toward discernment therapy, which was especially confusing because we had recently gotten married and had entered couples counseling with the intention of working on our marriage. The counseling increasingly seemed focused on determining whether we should stay together rather than helping us communicate, reconnect, and address the problems that brought us there. I understand that discernment therapy has a legitimate purpose and that couples counseling is not always about keeping a relationship together. However, there is a meaningful difference between appropriately exploring whether a relationship should continue and making a client feel that the therapeutic process is moving the couple further apart. For us, the irony is that our relationship did not improve through this experience. It began improving after we left the practice and stopped couples counseling there. I am not suggesting that every client will have the same experience. Therapy is highly individual, and this is simply mine. But I believe prospective clients deserve to know that my experience was not merely an uncomfortable therapy session. I left feeling deeply distressed and, ultimately, traumatized by the therapeutic experience itself. The administrative side of AZRI deserves five stars. My experience with the actual marriage counseling does not.
