“Fara Woolley is one of the therapists I never thought would work for me when I first visited. I've talked to many therapists in the past, but I never really clicked with any of them. She is one of the rare exceptions where I truly feel the therapy is effective. She helps me become more aware of myself by listening to me and offering strategies. Fara Woolley is also punctual, professional, and, most importantly, genuinely empathetic. I am happy with the progress I've made with her so far.”

Probably blown off, told after fact appt cancelled, no reschedule. Retract my original positive review,(tried to be nice because don’t like writing bad reviews) but there’s problem with providers extracting good reviews, then reverting to how they really are. Issue w her interrupting every few min with qs. Possibly active listening,was explaining situation, maybe I’m sensitive but felt couldn’t relax during session, fast paced, informational.. Like stenography. Maybe this approach works for someone. I recommend don’t leave reviews generally (or not at all) until much time has passed so you can give an honest one. I see “ good behavior”, then surprisingly, things change like prices go up 100% or they actually revert to how they are really. Like to think people are nice or professional first their own sake, not reviews.

I really needed to see a therapist and it was so disappointing that I waste my time looking for one with my insurance, all for her to not contact me and not show up. Super unclear how to even get into contact with her. And the office doesn’t even reply

Unclear how the video visit was supposed to be initiated, never received any email as per instructions (for any zoom links/or link to the video conference. ) not sure if this is error on zocdoc or the actual doctor.

I can’t speak on experience with the doctor because my appointment was moved twice. She also only had night availability. The reviews were hopeful, so I’m sure she may be great.
Things happen, but didn’t work out for me this time!
