Judith Sloan-Price, LCSW

My personal experience was pretty bad. She made false assumptions and accusations right from the start in an email chain with my wife and I. After seeing her one session, she was telling me what I should be doing and what I wasn't doing. She was not asking questions, she was telling me and making accusations, presuming a lot of information and knowledge we hadn't discussed. I let that go, because I needed help. But I should have stop seeing her right then. She continued to seek to use the consoling session to accuse instead of to inquire. It felt like I was being cross examined in a legal case, instead her trying to establish trust and make it a safe environment to help me work through my issues. I wouldn't recommend her. I got very defensive after that, because I did not feel safe, I felt attacked. She couldn't separate herself from our situation, by her own admission, when a consoler is telling you that, run. That means they have their own issues they haven't worked through. It's one thing to have a bad, but professional consoler, than it is to have an unprofessional one that is bringing their on emotional baggage to each session. She even attempted to psychoanalyze my very recently deceased mother's personality traits to abstract some mental diagnoses, and then turn that around against me. My mother passed 01/22/17. She was unprofessional almost from the beginning and ending with her becoming emotional involved and bringing her own emotional baggage to our consoling sessions. She was not helpful, I think she even made the situation worse.
