The testing was done on my child by a graduate student - I was told they would be fully supervised, but at every stage - including the administration of tests - it was a very disappointing and problematic experience. The report was written in the novelistic way that disclosed all kinds of things that had been given with the belief that details would be kept private. I would absolutely not use Expressive Therapy Center for psychological testing.

I was told by her she was jealous of my strength and that's why she became critical of me. When confronted a therapist she told me she didn't say that and began to gaslight me. She would reword everything I confronted her about trying to make m seem crazy and confused. No accountability whatsoever who can trust a therapist with no accountability and blames you for their actions and your past. Sad you put your trust in someone for 2 years and they're just like everyone else. Some people don't need to be a therapist because they care more about themselves and their reputation than a clients mental health. The therapist harmed my mental health couldn't get a sincere apology or explanation and was terminated for holding her accountable asking for answers after two years. I got terminated over the phone couldn't even get closure. Very selfish for her to get closure and leave me with questions after two years of therapy. Be careful who you trust.. You would think the clinic would like feedback to work with the therapist so this wouldn't happen to future clients but the supervisor only provided referrals and was weird. I'm writing this review because this was very traumatic for me and it seems like there was another review here with same issue. I don't want anyone to be harmed like I have. She needs to be held accountable. This is no okay. Clients deserve a safe space and are already judged and criticized out in the real world. You shouldn't have to pay a therapist to do the same. Sad you can't even trust a therapist these days. Be very careful and tread carefully here! Good luck!

If you are looking for a provider who is empathetic, flexible with scheduling, and in network with insurance, I would highly recommend this practice and provider.

While her wait list was not long, I felt compelled to see someone ASAP. That said- Ms. Perwin sent me an email to keep in touch and to see if I had found a provider and asked about my needs. As a person with needs, I felt heard and respected. She followed up. It was not related to whether I was on her caseload or not-- she wanted to make I was situated in a good place. As a former practice manager in a medical office- I quickly recognized that I was interacting with someone of high professional ethics who geniunely cared about "using her powers for good". I am beyond impressed. For that reason alone, I recommend Ms. Perwin without hesitation. Dr. Noreen S. Buchanan, CCC-SLP

My situation was a family separation that had a hard impact for our children and both parents. Myself and our sons started reunification therapy with Kim Wells almost going on 1 year from now. From day one of Kim working with our sons and myself, it has been very positive and supportive. During this whole time Kim has shown her expertise as a reunification therapist that has helped my sons and I through many sessions of reunification therapy. Kim has always put our children's best interest first and provided a safe and neutral space where everyone's feeling have been heard and validated. Kim has never taking sides but instead expertly guided us through difficult conversations at times. Kim has taught us skills on communication, active listening, rebuilding trust and more. Kim and her team of therapist and staff have always been professional and caring and I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for a reunification therapist, family therapy, individual therapy and more to go to Olney Counseling! I'm very thankful and appreciate all that Kim has done for our children and both parents.
