When my therapist left the agency, she made every effort to transition me to another therapist at New Leaf. I, however, googled her name and found she was working at another practice. In my last session, I asked if I could come see her at her other location. She told me she was contractually bound not to take clients with her and she again reassured me, as she had repeatedly, that my needs could be met with another therapist at New Leaf. The following week, I contacted Patrick Morrow, the executive director to ask if he would consider waiving any non-compete, so I could continue to see my therapist, as I felt I was at a critical point in therapy. Rather then hear my request, Mr Morrow took the opportunity to berate my therapists "poor boundaries," and to make other disparaging remarks about her, including trying to force a bizarre narrative that she had tried to "turn me against" the agency. On top of that, he then had my therapist contact me and recite his party line, apologizing for her poor boundaries, for anything she said that reflected poorly on New Leaf (nothing) and telling me she could not continue to see me (she'd already said this). As long as Mr Morrow is affiliated with New Leaf, I won't be pursuing therapy there. He certainly clarified that bashing an outgoing therapist is more of a priority to him then hearing me out and considering my request. read more
