Avita Community Partners - Behavioral Health

“Usually everything is fine when I go, even with my mom getting me diagnosed with shit that I don’t feel was correct. This time was different though, if you’re tired that’s fine, I am too bro. 🤷‍♀️ idk left a bad taste in my mouth towards therapy this time guys.”

“I’ve been bringing my son to Avita for years, and he’s worked with several different counselors. Until recently, it always felt like a struggle just to get him to go, and I honestly started to lose hope. Since he’s been seeing Daniel, everything is different. My son actually looks forward to his sessions now, which is something I never thought I’d say. Daniel connects with him in a way no one else has, and the progress we’re seeing is real. What I appreciate most is that Daniel doesn’t just focus on my son—he involves the whole family. He challenges me too, and has helped me recognize ways I can support my son better. Because of that, our relationship feels healthier and less like a constant fight. If you’re a parent who’s been discouraged with counseling in the past, I can’t recommend Daniel enough.”

“You shouldnt use bias to discriminate trans people while taking blood samples. You must disinfect the needle before taking blood. You must avoid harrassment and bulling in the facility as mental health can be compromised. Thank you for the painfull experience. My life matters too 😉”

“Two stars for the front staff, five for my therapist. I have an ESA dog. I called to see if I could bring her. I was told yes. My dog is still in training, and barked at some people outside. I was then very rudly told, in a very loud voice, in a waiting room full of people, that my dog needed to shut up, or I had to leave. I was then told that only therapy dogs are allowed in, not by the staff who told me I could bring her, but they told my therapist to tell me. Please tell me how that is conducive to a person who comes to a mental health facility for help, only to be embarrassed, chastised, and made to feel unwelcome. Perhaps they should pay more attention to the type of people they hire, to deal with people with mental health illnesses.”
