NOT supportive. NOT understanding. NOT warm and caring. NOT positive. LACKS interpersonal skills. Even as I waited in the lobby, I was the only one in the lobby and as she walked in she didn't even look at me or acknowledge me. I was the ONLY one there so she KNEW I was her patient and didn't even look at me or say hello. WORST psychologist. She also uses her ego rather than using a caring heart or her education to assess. For example when I shared something with her she said she couldn't understand why I was feeling that way and began to share HER OWN personal stories. Ummm......is this session about the patient or her??? She lacks understanding and the will to build patients UP. Rather, she makes them feel WORSE than when they first came in. NOT KIDDING!!!!

Tried to share & hopefully get reassurance on a fear I had. She proceeded to share HER fear on something else & tried to tell me she couldn't understand why I wasn't afraid of something SHE was afraid of over what I was afraid of. Didn't think it was necessary for her to make it personal by sharing HER fear & comparing it to mine & not understanding. I also told her a spiritual/miraculous experience I had about my fear which she dismissed saying not reliable and "wouldn't count on it". Even though when I told MANY other professionals about my spiritual experience they said it "gave them chills" and said it was not just a coincidence. I don't believe it is in her place to dismiss a person's personal beliefs. Again, another example of how she is using personal opinion rather than professional opinion. Psychologist Ellen Kreidman wrote a book about how we all want to feel understood and ONCE we feel understood THAT'S when we try to make the best decisions possible for our life. I did not feel understood at all By Dr. Abrams.
