Everyone of your guys providers kept cancelling my appointments like 2-4 hours before my actual appointment after I did all my paperwork and they said my insurance went through....So, no I have not seen any of the appointments that I made through you guys.
PLEASE FIX!!!!!
November 5, 2025Melissa E.Verified patientVideo visit
Not a good fit as she showed very little interest in helping me . Perhaps she is a decent provider to some but she was rude and un empathetic during our session. She comes across as having a “white savior complex “. My hope is that I caught her on a bad day. The only pluses are that there was a short wait time and that the Headway platform that she used , for our session, was easy to navigate .
