Mental Health Care on a sliding scale. I've been going here for years on and off. I don't have any huge complaints. Would recommend to anyone that needs to talk to someone. Especially during this pandemic.

I waited for three weeks for an appointment. The Doctor never called. I went to the building and they acted as though they were never supposed to help me in the first place. I expressed to the therapist that I was going to needs meds, long story short I got no meds and I guess the doctor was too good to give me a call. I think they think they are doing you a favor but they a a business and not a very good one. I left not wanting their services. They called me anyway, even though I asked not to be bothered.
