Counselors - Lakeland, FL

"Jason was my counselor for a couple of months. He did listen to me while I discussed my issues, but provided me with very little therapeutic insight during each visit. I have issues with anxiety and depression, which is what I was seeking counseling for. I did not realize how ineffective his counseling was until I gave up on him and found a much more competent counselor, who provides me with much greater help as well as coping strategies to get me through stressful moments in my life when they occur. He is a nice young man. He will sit there and listen to you. But I did not find my sessions with him very productive. There are a lot of counselors in the area. I would suggest you seek counseling with someone else."

"I started seeing Dr Brandt for my addiction issues. He encouraged me to start drinking more instead of cocaine or pot because it wasn't as unsafe. I would never let anyone I care about go see him. he doesn't seem to care about what he does just his paycheck. he also told me that sex addiction isn't a real thing even though my new doctor is telling me it is a serious problem and now treating me for it. im very greatfull I stopped seeing this guy and got a new doctor. don't waste your time."
