If you truly are serious about your mental health. Look for a doctor, and therapist that are willing to walk you through your trauma. Because if you don't walk through it all you're doing this medicated for year after decade. Mental health gets plenty of funding I don't want to go into facility in draw pictures and have potluck and one of the groups. I never got to deal with the issues that plagued me from my childhood in adulthood got medicated . Every year they make you sign a paper what are your goals they did nothing to help you achieve your goals . Did they do that every year no they track me down half half the time and make me sign the yearly paper for several years. But again this is the profession they chose to help people they get compensated extremely well. They are not private they work for the state they should be held to a higher standard. They need to be audited and have their files checked because they do a lot of fidgeting like me signing a yearly achievement paper yet it was 3 years 4 years old give me a break.
This clinic does not respect your privacy or your rights. I have been threatened by a social worker and office manager when I reminded them that they were violating patients rights under State and Federal Law. I am a former Registered Nurse prior to becoming disabled so I am well versed in patients rights and the process for documenting or reporting violations.
The security personnel have attitudes and do not honor people's disability rights including their right to use an assistance device. I have reported this to the Director and my doctor. My doctor has actually reminded the security that they are in violation but the director of the clinic does not care as long as he receives the stare and federal funding.
The Social workers/therapists are a joke. They do not honor your rights at all. When I first started here one social worker threatened me. When I reported it I was told I was a liar just because I have depression nothing else. They treat people liar they are dirt because they have depression or a mental illness of some kind.
If I could give it less than a 1 I would. My dr wanted to see.me every month but the office worker decided she didn't like that so my dr caved to her instead of what was best for me. She even made appts w a therapist without my consent which violates patients rights. In stopped going here because of how badly they treat the patients. It wasn't just me they treated others even worse. Most pts do not know their rights but I do!!
DO NOT GO HERE UNLESS YOU WANT ADDED STRESS, ETC.
