Review of The Menninger Clinic

I don't know about the level of care currently at this facility. This rating is for the Interventionist the Admissions office at Menningers provided me. Ian Cunningham (Intervention) is the gentleman they referred me to. I paid Ian right at 10,000 hard cold cash to get my non compliant special needs who suffers from a brain disorder from his rental home to Menningers. Ian did not identify who is was while on premise of my child's property and used no deescalation skills at all! He was not successful with the transfer, and stole every bit of my money. I used a Dr. that is knowledgeable about brain disorders and the escalations those inflicted exhibit when under undue stress. My son received the care he needed at another place besides Menningers, and is doing exceptionally well. This is because I used a service that had the skill set and know how to deal with people that have brain disorders. Run from this interventionist as I even signed the contract stating I wanted unused funds. Ian continually ignores my request. He stole money from a loving mother of a special needs child. Admissions at Menningers was of NO assistance to get my money back. Beware. Run from this interventionist. I have dealt with my child's brain disorder since birth so I am knowledgeable with what I saw in Ian's poor services and lack of skill set to deescalate my son. I trusted Menningers with proposing a high quality interventionist. The Clinic truly failed me, and the admissions office gave me responses like they really didn't care! We Mothers of special needs kids hurt enough. I hope this saves some other mother thousands of dollars. I wish some one had warned me.
