  Life works recovery

  I strongly advise against using this company's services. In truth this company was more harmful to my marriage than my partner's *** addiction! I rarely write and leave reviews, however I feel compelled to caution anyone who is considering using Lifeworks Recovery, ESPECIALLY partners of recovering *** addicts. My experience here was the opposite of what Lifeworks claimed to do, and instead of "helping the partners heal their trauma first...and helping the spouse and partner of an addict get the truth, set and maintain healthy boundaries, and stop the crazy-making...", Lifeworks adversely perpetuated the trauma, took away my sense of reality and created a bigger schism in my marriage and relationship than the addiction itself. I entered into therapy with Lifeworks very optimistic, with the full intention of staying in the marriage and working through the damage wrought upon my life through my partner's addiction. My partner worked with CSAT Aaron "Gene" Hunt for over a year before the *** addiction was disclosed to me at the setting of the Lifeworks' office. I had to experience 2 more disclosures following this initial meeting because pertinent information was consistently withheld from me. I only discovered the severity of the addiction once I found innumerable emails and Craigslist adds of my partner soliciting *** from strangers over the course of our 6 year relationship. CSAT Aaron and Lifeworks Recovery seemed determined to hide this information from me, and Aaron worked with my partner to prepare a formal disclosure stating that my partner's addictive behaviors had ceased when he entered the relationship with me. This could not have been further from the truth! When I confronted Aaron and my partner with evidence of infidelity, Aaron did not act surprised or concerned. I requested that my partner seek a rehabilitation facility because I believed that he needed greater help than a weekly visit with Aaron, but Aaron advised against this and persuaded my partner that I was only attempting to control his recovery and the situation. He instructed my partner to instead spend more money and time with Lifeworks, which felt manipulative and ethically dishonest. I was even told by Lifeworks that I did not have the authority or capacity to consider a divorce unless I continued doing work with them. I have since terminated services with Lifeworks and am continuing my therapy through a different company. I am now in the middle of a messy divorce, but I can't help feeling that things might have gone differently if my partner and I had chosen to seek counseling through a company other than Lifeworks. *** addiction is a painful, emotionally damaging experience for anyone, but mine was compounded exponentially by Aaron and Lifeworks Recovery. I would truly hate for anyone to have to repeat this experience. If you are a partner of a *** addict and you are reading this, please keep faith in yourself and render your time, money and future elsewhere.

  Texas Neurology PA

  Doctor T did a horrible job of delivering devastating news. The nurse also did a horrible job of delivering treatment options. Will never go there again. In all fairness, we got right in and the doctor made sure to get testing done immediately and get results right back. Despite all the good things in the administrative routine, the bedside manner was an F making the overall experience poor.

  Texas Neurology PA

  Dr. Tunnel was very patronizing and the way he told us that he thought my daughter had MS was like he was telling us what the weather was going to be like that day. Once the diagnosis came in, he spoke to my daughter over the phone and acted irritated to repeat the info to me. Lastly, his nurse was the one to tell us to "pick her medication" as if it were a choice between eating an orange or an apple -- not a choice of (necessary?) poisons. It was all very frightening and they were not mindful of that in the least. VERY DISAPPOINTED

  Dubnov, Dr. William L.

  It exceeded my expectation, and it is my absolute pleasure to recommend Dr. Wm. L. Dubnov as a counselor. Since seeing, Dr. Dubnov my life has improved in the following ways: more self-belief, self-love and more respect for myself and others. I have also experienced significant improvement in my work life, my relationships and even finances. My physical health has also improved dramatically. I no longer feel the necessity to take my Adderall or Xanax, I once deepened on to reduce my anxiety. I no longer tolerate toxic, destructive relationships in my life. I find myself being more empathetic and truly believing I can be whatever I want and all I have to do is try. In a word, I have learned how to become my own whole person, pursue my true-life calling, and in effect, how to act as my own counselor. These changes I have experienced in my life are enduring.

  Orna Goldwater PHD

  Dr Goldwater has helped me through difficult times with empathy, compassion and clear strategies for improving my situation.  I am incredibly grateful I ended up in her treatment.  She's both effective and warm.  While I do not need regular, on-going therapy any more, I still reach out to her whenever I've got a difficult situation or feelings about an event in my life.  I hope to continue with her for years to come.

  Orna Goldwater PHD

  It is going very well. Dr. Goldwater listens to what is going on in my life. We discuss my problems and solutions to those problems that I can try. She is very positive and flexible. If one thing doesn't work she has other options. She is very well educated and gives great examples of how others have dealt with similar problems.

  Dr. Goldwater has provided me with suggestions on how to deal with my issues. She listens intently and  asks appropriate questions to help me recognize the source of what bothers me and how to deal with it. Her manner is always friendly and comforting. I really appreciate our sessions.

  Queenan, Dr. Kip E

  I was very impressed with Dr. Queenan. I have seen him two times now, and will continue to see him in the future. I had never seen a psychiatrist before, and was scared because I did not know what to expect. Dr. Queenan put me at ease. He listens and wants to understand you (emphasis on 'you'), and to help you.
  I'd read other Angie's list reviews praising the front office staff and, honestly, did not understand what the big deal was about a front office. Now I get it. The entire environment is peaceful.
