What recent reviews say

Therapists here earn strong, personal praise for skill and compassion. Ayanna McNeil stands out for work with children and couples; Deana Tucker for life-changing support. The office space feels welcoming. However, phone and scheduling let the practice down: receptionists have been reported unfriendly and unhelpful, calls go unanswered for weeks, and one therapist texted to reschedule rather than honor scheduled slots.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Two of five recent reviews praise the counseling experience, especially marriage work; one names Arsida as transformative. Three one-star reviews document serious issues: unprepared sessions, consistent lateness without makeup time, a no-show with no explanation, and staff refusing to complete employment paperwork for a client. Limited review evidence overall, but patterns suggest inconsistent service quality and follow-up.

Reviewers praise genuine dedication to youth and families, particularly through foster care coordination and counselor effort. However, significant complaints center on unresponsiveness to calls, limited parent involvement in assessments, and feedback shared with authorities rather than families directly.
