Scheduling Issues and Confusion
Some reviewers experienced issues with scheduling appointments, including receiving confusing text messages and having their appointments canceled. This led to a sense of disorganization and unprofessionalism.
Lack of Trust and Privacy Concerns
Several reviewers expressed concerns about the clinic's handling of personal information, with some claiming that their information was shared with random people, who then contacted them. This breach of trust has led to a lack of confidence in the clinic's ability to maintain confidentiality.
Unprofessional Counselor Behavior
One reviewer had a disturbing experience with their counselor, who told them they wouldn't see them anymore despite being severely depressed and having suicidal thoughts. This behavior is unacceptable and has led to feelings of abandonment and mistrust.
Positive Experience
On a more positive note, one reviewer had a great experience with the clinic, feeling comfortable with their counselor and receiving helpful guidance.
