There Is Hope Counseling Services

What i expierienced with mr. burns @ there is hope counseling services doesnt fit into 1000 words. But to summarize, i started seeing him for therapy and i too signed papers he assured me were standard and of no consiquence, and then explained everything we talked about... in session never left the room. His sessions *i only had 4* were obsurd and he tried to put me on a diet and never took notes. I asked him for a dissability note for a pending case and he said i would have to pay him for one. I missed an appt because i had a serious asthma attack and had to go home to use my nebulizer and called a few hours later to explain what happened. Mr.burns said i never called and denied me even HAVING asthma and took me to court for the missed appt.After i WON the first case he appealed & i just spent 7 hrs in court fighting his appeal. This whole thing has made me never want a therapist again and he talked about things i said in session in the court room! Read More

At the first session, my sister was given numerous documents with lots of small print, and asked to sign them.I was wary of that, I had never heard of such a thing! Over the course of a year, the therapist gave her some very unethical, advice void of morals.We all tol...d her to stop going there, and not to listen to the advice. After a year of that, she decided to stop going, and then the fun began! The therapist tried to extort money for supposed "missed and canceled" sessions, and it was not true. He was clearly taking advantage of a situation he would win.(with papers to protect him, and said that these sessions were written into his appt book. Not true! ) He took her to court, and she had to pay a large sum of money for sessions that had never even been booked.She was vulnerable and felt betrayed. I thought that she was scammed. Find a different therapist, one who doesn't start the first session by handing you disclaimers and papers to sign! Beware. Read More
