Ms. Phyllis Tainey is a social work, counseling, and addiction therapy specialist in Longmont, CO.

"Find someone else. Phyllis was a disaster. She claimed my insurance covered only 45 minute sessions (it was 60). She bullied me to stay later. She charged me $20 for every 15 minutes above 45, including the 15 that should have been included. The pricing wasn't the issue, but since she never reported those "overage sessions" to my insurance, I couldn't use my flex spending account on them. She also insisted on cash payments before each appointment. I know billing and paperwork is a hassle, but the way she handled it seemed shady and like she was trying to scam me into paying her more money under the table. . She also gave me crazy guilt trips for one night out a week when I would actually socialize and see my friends or the fact that I had my kids in after school activities because clearly I should have been spending every waking moment at therapy. When I told her that her billing practices just didn't work for me and I needed someone who would take a credit card or send me a bill, she yelled at me. Who does that? So unprofessional. "

What is Social Work?

Strongly influenced by the concepts of human rights and social justice, social workers are professionals that help vulnerable individuals, families, and groups in need. Social work can include a variety of different jobs or careers, but in essence it involves meeting people in their home environment, identifying the issues that are causing social problems for them, and connecting them with the right resources to improve their well-being.

Social workers may work for organizations, in hospitals, in schools, for the government, at senior centers, in private practice, or in any number of public or private institutions. Many social workers choose to work with specific populations, such as children, the elderly, or the poor. Often, social work is about creating healthy communities in order to improve the lives of all people.

Some of the issues that social workers may come up against in their profession include:

Violence
Poverty
Abuse
Discrimination
Illness and lack of access to healthcare
Drug and alcohol addiction
Divorce
Death and grief
Unemployment
Disability
Mental illness
Family dysfunction

Social workers are advocates for social change. They educate clients to prevent problems from occurring or worsening. They empower others to develop to their full potential.
