My son had an intake at New Directions because they claimed they accepted Medicaid. Not only was Lauren, the intake counselor completely incompetent (she shamed my son during the intake interview) but New Directions also billed my unemployed son beyond what Medicaid covered. I mean, do they not understand that poor people are on Medicaid because they are poor?!!!! Wouldn’t send a cat I hated to this practice!

My son goes there. His father and i are separated. My son has adhd and suffers from conditions the therapist told his it was ok to take him the meds. He barely graduated because of this. He then told my son i was making up stories to medicate him. He was diagnosed by a physiatrist not me. My beat on me and smokes pot now. The therapist said it was all made up by me. I recommend nobody takes their child there they will alienate your child. I looked into the therapists record snd found multiple infractions why he works there... read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!!! Wanna get your mental health absolutely fucked? No? Then don't go. They never follow up if you miss appointments, they don't give a fuck if you are going through trauma or have a work conflict. The doctors there will push you to give them control over your mental health meds and then as soon as they do they drop you as a patient so you're screwed. The front desk people are assholes and have no sense of empathy what so ever, they therapists are undereducated and expect you to come in and solve your own trau... read more

Not a good place to work at. They withheld $700 of my paycheck for more than a week. The one supervisor is extremely rude and unwelcoming. Overall vibe is they don’t care for their employees. Do not recommend to anyone to work here or go here for therapy. 

Business response:

We want to clarify that ensuring timely and correct payment to our employees is a top priority, and any delay in payment is not reflective of our standard practices.

horrible place, do not recommend, when I was a client there, I had the most miserable time of my life, rules are overly strict, staff was horrible, granted it was years ago, and maybe things have changed, but after the trauma I suffered from them, the PTSD I got because of them, the horrible way staff treated their clients, I will never forgive this place or my school district for ever sending me, my case worker at the time, and my mom both saw how horrible it was, and mom even said I was worse going out of the place than go... read more
