A clinical psychologist who requires therapy herself!
Lesson...never judge a book by its cover. I booked a session with Her because Her website paints a picture of a kind and understanding person. That's what I needed at the time. I was so wrong... She walked past me as I entered the property. She looked at me, then arrogantly looked away without greeting. At the time, I did not recognise her. I thought she was a patient. I said to myself, "This lady is so angry!" I could tell she was angry by the look on her face and the fast, agitated pace at which she walked. Furthermore, the dismissive manner in which she looked at me, led me to this deduction and left a bitter taste in my mouth. I proceeded to the reception...the receptionist was kind, respectful, and helpful. ...I was disgusted and sick to my tummy when I found out that the rude, disrespectful, angry, and arrogant woman I walked past was the the****** I was about to see. The greeting was cold and pretencious. I could see Her true intentions. She looked like She didn't want me there. I thought to myself, is it because I am a man, or the color of my skin, or both. I overlooked Her nasty demeanor and proceeded to sit down. Dismissive, abrupt, demasculinting, condescending, spaced out, irritable, arrogant, rude, non-responsive at times, egotistical are a few words that best describe her mannerisms. She was not understanding... She simply lacked this basic trait every psychologist should have. She was so spaced out that I could see Her mind drifting as I spoke. I look back and wonder what caused Her to be that space out. About 10 minutes into the session, She stopped me midway through my traumatic story and arrogantly made the statement, "I'm gonna stop you! I hope this is not going to be a 1 hour session of you speaking, then right at the end asking me for a medical certificate stating that you are...!" She made it seem as though my issues were trivial and untrue. She had now officially created an unsafe environment for me to conduct this therapy. It was at this point I thought about standing up, telling her where to get off, ending our session, and reporting her misconduct. I was on guard and did not show my true self for the rest of the session. I was not going to be vulnerable with someone like her. I was extremely patient with her and decided to stay, to my own detriment. She stated that her practice will be 3 months in Dubai and 3 months in South Africa. She then said I must decide if her therapy will be suited for me. Once agian, she made it seem as though she dis not want to be my the******. I left the session feeling worse than I've felt over the past 5 months. I had a sleepless night ruminating over the manner in which she spoke to me and how she wasted my time, money, and energy. I left the session feeling upset and broken down to the point that I walked out the back way without walking past the reception area. I did this because I did not want to interact with anyone. I felt sick and physically weak after sharing my intimate traumas with this terrible person. I want a refund!!!
