Debra Brittain LCSW

I am a person who went through a lot of pain and grief and now finally am out of it after so much of counselling therapy. Counsellors vary from very bad to very good ones. I had already experienced the bad ones before and writing a review about them takes courage. Since I am done with my cognitive therapy I made it sure to write about Debra Brittain LCSW. She was once my therapist and I still regret having sessions with her.
During my earlier times of the depressive phase, I had no idea to choose the best therapist in town. I was recommended Debra Brittain by one of my friends. I still curse him for letting me choose the wrong person for the therapy. I made an appointment with her for a ‘weekly plan’ and had to pay the fee in advance before the start of a week. The first session with her was average, she seemed more interested to discuss her early life struggle rather than paying attention to my problems. It didn’t bother me much because it was my first day with her. As soon as 2-3 days passed by she started getting aggressive and strict day by day. Once, it happened that due to some reasons I wasn’t able to get up early in the morning and was late for my session, I kept her waiting for 20 minutes. As soon as I walked in I apologized for being late. She told me to wait outside in the lobby for 30 more minutes. I asked her the reason, she said that I kept her waiting for 20 minutes now I would have to wait too. ‘Tit for tat’ her exact wordings were. This was very shocking and annoying at the same time. I forgot to pay the advance fee for the third week and told her to proceed as I had some money crunch, I assured her to pay the fee by the 3rd day of this week. She denied taking sessions and first told me to clear the payment to proceed further. This couldn’t get any worse because she was least bothered about the therapy and only cared about the money.
I could resist but cut off my name from her chamber because her greed for money pissed me off. The therapy she gave was average, but communications were always argumentative. It was her behaviour that led me to cancel my subscription. I would suggest no one visit Debra Brittain LCSW. She loves money more than the mental and physical health of her patient and it depicts that she is a person who never misses taking revenge. This horrible experience warned me to check up on the nature of the doctors before working with them. I didn’t make the same mistake again and chose a better doctor than her. Please don’t make appointments with her.
