Counselors - Schaumburg, IL

"I would not recommend this therapist. I had one counseling session and immediately canceled all upcoming appointments the very next day. She wasn’t very inviting and warm. I was dealing with anxiety and a bit of depression. I don’t believe this is her expertise area. I indicated my previous employer caused this and she sent me a list of jobs to look up?!? That’s just as if I had a fear or tartaric experience with dogs and she sends over a list of dogs to adopt…. She was also very judgmental & asked “I should’ve left out why didn’t I leave”. Obviously if I knew better, I would’ve done better.. Overall, my experience was not good. She’d be an ok career counselor but therapist? I don’t see the potential. She also over talked, did Most of the talking and didn’t listen as I repeated myself. She even asked a question and said “you never told me that”…. You never asked that question… She was not the right fit! Tread lightly. She also asked me “stop myself from getting anxious beforehand”… if it was that easy, I wouldn’t be seeking therapy.. Gauge how serious your issues are and avoid at all cost if you’re in a sensitive time or position. 0/10. Also do your research. Please never suffer thru with the wrong therapist. It can do more bad than good! You’ll end up needing a therapist because of the therapy. Run at the first sign of red flags, it’s worth it. You’re worth it!! "

"Dr. Baynes, was wonderful, she took the time to listen to my issues and provided me with the information that I need to calm my anxiety."
