Harmony Mental Health has been criticized by several patients for incompetence and unprofessionalism. One patient, Jessica Lang, reported being refused treatment for ADHD and being gaslighted by her psychiatrist, Dr. Merle Edelstein. Lang also found the suggestion that she was trying to get Adderall for illegal purposes to be racist and offensive. Another patient, Kelly Roman, experienced difficulties in obtaining a receipt from the receptionist and was treated rudely when she finally got it.
Lack of Knowledge and Understanding
Several patients have reported being patronized and misunderstood by the mental health professionals at Harmony. Amira Aro was told that her Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) diagnosis was unlikely because she loved her partner. Cara Hammer was also misinformed about her PTSD diagnosis and felt disrespected and ignored by the therapists.
Poor Communication and Inefficient Practices
Patients have also reported poor communication and inefficient practices at Harmony. Matt D. experienced a psychiatrist who was distracted while eating a sandwich and seemed uninterested in his concerns. Patrick Adams had to wait four months for an intake appointment and then was treated like an addict when he finally saw a psychiatrist.
Positive Experiences
In contrast, some patients have reported positive experiences at Harmony. Jasper Cooper has been a patient for over eight years and has found the therapists to be understanding and professional. Mary Evans has also been a patient for years and has praised the staff's kindness and professionalism.
