Posting a review about my services is your right as a client so it’s entirely up to you to decide whether you wish to write a review. But I gently discourage clients from posting reviews of my practice. Please be thoughtful of the following as you decide:

1. If we work together, I hope that we can discuss your feelings about our work directly and in person. This may not feel comfortable, but discussion of your positive and negative reactions to our work can be an important part of your therapy. If we are not a good match, I’m happy to help you find a therapist who better suits you.

2. The American Psychological Association’s Ethics Code states that it’s unethical for psychologists to solicit testimonials: «Psychologists do not solicit testimonials from current therapy clients/​patients or other persons who because of their particular circumstances are vulnerable to undue influence.» I do not request testimonials from current or past clients as they may return to work with me later.

History

Established in 2010.

3. Unlike other business owners who may respond to their Yelp reviews, as a psychologist I must provide confidentiality to my clients. This means I am restricted from responding in any way that acknowledges whether someone has been in my care.

4. If you do choose to review my practice, note that this is a public forum. If you would like to preserve your privacy, consider using a pseudonym that is not linked to your regular email address or friend networks.

5. If you believe that I have (or any licensed mental health professional has) done something harmful, another option for action would be to contact our state licensing board to make a formal complaint. This may protect other consumers of therapy services. Be aware that details of your therapy may come up if there is a formal investigation.
