Counseling & Mental Health reviews in Waterford

  Karen came highly recommended to me as a counselor for marriage/divorce counseling.  She provided me with sound advice and ways to think about my future.  She also provided suggestions and tactics to navigate the divorce.  Seeing Karen really helped.

  My wife and I decided to see Karen after looking through her reviews on Angie's List.  We had been having a hard time for awhile and things were at a point where we were both thinking about separating.  We have only seen Karen for a couple of months but she has made a remarkable difference in our marriage.  It's been an almost immediate turnaround in our communication with each other and things have been significantly better at home.  Karen has been fantastic in terms of her interaction with both of us; she is very fair and impartial (which I guess is to be expected) but makes each of us fell like what we have to say is important and heard.  My wife has been so impressed that she wants to start going once a month on her own just to sort out some personal matters outside of our marriage.  Neither of us has had much experience with counseling but if any couple is at a point like we were and looking for a way to improve their marriage I would highly recommend they make an appointment with Karen.  She is always accommodating with our schedules as we have two young children, even when there is a last minute change.  I can think of nothing but positives with our experience and only wish we would have found her sooner to avoid some of the hardships we went through.

  Check her out before you or a loved one goes to see this woman.  I asked her where she went to college (as I noticed from her diploma that she did not have a PHD in Psychology rather some other title in philosophy ) The name of the school, I had never heard of, The Union Institute & University.  When I researched them on line I found out that the Union institute does not hold professional accreditations.  I don't know how the insurance companies allow her to bill them but they do.  She holds several other strange diploma's also.  The only real degree she hold is one from U of M and that was a bachelor degree in teaching, I think she said or social work.  Anyway it was weird.  She did not ask any questions rather pulled out charts and lectured us with a canned speach that I could tell she memorized and recited to each new patient.  I feel very sad that people are going to find this woman on line like I did and not know that she is not a real Psychologist.  I had previous experiences with a wonderful professional who has since passed away so I know what it should have been like.  On a final note, as I was waiting in the lobby (very messy and dirty) a little girl came out of her office.  Thinking about it now makes my heart sink.  Here this child really needs help and she is getting a non-professional person doing who knows what damage.  I am shocked that others rated her so highly.  There must be something wrong with this system.

  She's very thorough and empathetic to what I am going through. I don't feel like she's talking down or has a condescending attitude.
