very UNPROFESSIONAL! what kind of Dr. calls a school to COMPLAIN about how a student did on an UNSCHEDULED phone interview. Dr Torro needs some serious help! I thought counselors were supposed to show empathy and support, not bully!

Awful, I went there when I was 16 and the staff was so dismissive about people's problems and acted like people chose to be mentally ill. I suffer from ADHD and bipolar disorder as well as OCD. One staff member even said " ADHD and aspergers aren't even real disorders!" Are you serious? The majority...

I was on unite 19 for roughly 9 months not long ago, and although there were some staff that were obviously just there for the checks, there were way more there that showed great support and encouragement. My first few weeks there were extremely hard and I had a lot of anxiety. Two particular staff ...

I was involuntarily admitted by police officers to New Foundations Behavioral Center. I was admitted in 2009, and spent two months in the facility. I can honestly say that this place is no different than being in jail. I do not have any mental ...

First of all, this is one of the worst facilities you could go to in the short, medium, or long-term. The longer-term the care, the more abuses there are. I was a victim of these monsters during the '04-'07 period.

In addition to the in-patient facilities, this company has a school on the groun...
