Counselors - Overland Park, KS

"Dr. Phil was excellent. One of the best I've talked with. Very helpful in every area needed. Highly recommend."

"My experience overall was just a waste of time and money. I went specifically to inquire about EMDR. It could be a terrible or off day on Sara’s part and hope other people don’t experience what I experienced. My opinions of the interaction with Sara are as follows: I felt every question Sara asked me was delivered with annoyance and impatience. Sara did not feel trauma informed to me. Sara did not feel to me to have much experience with anything too complex. Sara claimed to be straightforward person however at the end of the 46 minutes which she charged the full amount, (I feel pro-rating the amount would have been the professional thing to do) Sara provided a card to contact her for another appointment. I was confused because I definitely felt there was zero connection and that was ok with me. I felt Sara knew it it wasn’t a good fit as well. This is where I felt the biggest disappointment, someone claiming to be straightforward doesn’t have the ability to call it like it is. I would have left 5 stars if Sara aligned to her words of actually being straightforward, if Sara would have stated ,”I don’t think we are a match”. It is hard for me to feel professional respect for someone that doesn’t align with their words but preaches them. She felt unauthentic to me and not genuine to me which doesn’t feel safe to be around to me. The room is in a dark basement with no windows and did not feel inviting and definitely felt closed in. Sara was on time and prompt at responding. "

"Really disappointing to get no response from a voicemail asking for information about grief counseling. It takes a lot to reach out for help, only for that request to go unanswered."

"I met with her quite a few times. Sometimes I'm a little slow to realize when something is not working out. When I initially met with her, there was just enough room in her office for each of us to get to a chair. The rest of the room was piled with all manner of stuff and it's not a small room. The last times I saw her, she was meeting patients in her tiny waiting room! Anyone could've been outside the door and heard everything we were talking about. VERY unprofessional! She had some story about being in the process of moving to a new office, which was her story for months, but the pile kept getting bigger. I'm guessing there just wasn't enough room in her office any longer. She's overbearing, talks on and on and on in a loud voice and doesn't listen. It's pretty bad when I keep zoning out when she is talking and when I have to keep saying to her "let me finish..." and when she is diagnosing my girlfriend, who she's never met and when we almost get into an argument about why we're not even talking about the issues I came in for months ago. I could go on. I would highly recommend you not waste your time with her. I know good therapists have months-long waiting lists these days, but it's worth it. I waited and I now have an amazing therapist and so relieved."
