I looked around for a therapist for a month or so I found this place and I read and reread the reviews and Lauren’s bio a few times When I finally called a few months ago the woman who took my information and answered my questions, I specifically asked if I needed a new letter for my emotional support dog would they be able to help. She assured me absolutely yes. We do it all the time Now a few months into my sessions I asked Lauren for a letter to give my landlord. Lauren informed me over 3 weeks ago she would ask her boss. 2 weeks later she told me no, her boss said no. I had to go online. A year ago my landlord did not like the online one and wanted it from a local Therapist This past week when I had my appointment with Lauren, she said she couldn’t, i asked what kind of therapist she was. Because I was told when I decided to come to your practice that I could get one, I was told I had to have a few sessions with the therapist Now on Tuesday 2/13 I asked, she told me she was meeting with her boss the next day and would tell him what I was told She said she would email me the next day, now it’s Saturday and nothing. I now am so upset that I put all this time into a therapist that isn’t qualified to write a letter, not because of her, but from some rule that I was lied to about on the onset Now I really think I need to go find a true therapist The fact I’m told to go online to get one from a stranger, while I am in therapy Makes me question your practice In sales we call it bait and switch

Should I Work With a Therapist?

Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry Allentown individualizes treatment plans to fit each person’s unique needs, difficulties, and dreams. Therapy is not a quick fix or formula. There is no magic that can miraculously turn hardship into an easy life. But with time and effort, Thriveworks Allentown counselors and psychiatric providers can work with their clients to achieve important mental health goals. Sometimes, those goals are to:

  1. Examine and work through troubling relationships and circumstances.
  2. Clarify professional and personal goals, then formulate a plan to achieve those goals.
  3. Grasp new coping and interpersonal skills that can replace destructive behavior patterns.

Some people schedule a session at Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry Allentown because they are ready for help as they manage a mental health challenge. Others walk through our doors because life has thrown them a curveball, and they are trying to figure out their new normal.
