Disappointing Experience
Kimberly Merie shared a disappointing review of her experience with "In His Image" counseling. She initially visited the counselor at the age of 17 and had an "okay" overall experience. However, when she revisited at the age of 20, she was met with rudeness and a sense of disinterest.
Unprofessional Treatment
After missing an appointment, Kimberly was messaged by Maribel and another counselor, who seemed annoyed and dismissive of her situation. They basically told her that she didn't need to pay for the appointment and to find another counselor, as she had missed appointments multiple times in the past. Kimberly felt belittled and unhelped by this response.
Comparing Positive and Negative Experiences
Interestingly, Kimberly mentions that she is currently back in counseling and is receiving excellent care from a different counselor. She praises the new counselor's compassion and understanding. Unfortunately, this positive experience serves as a stark contrast to her negative experience with "In His Image".
