Mary B. Seidel a counselor: As the owner of "the Goldens," I must address the inaccuracies in your complaint and your account of the incident. Your unleashed dog approached me and my dogs at the end of the park. I asked if your dog was friendly, as you were approaching us directly. You confirmed that your dog was friendly, and when I asked if our dogs could meet, you also agreed. However, when I unleashed my dogs, you dropped to the ground. You did not mention that your own dog was off leash or that you initiated the encounter. Additionally, you failed to acknowledge the presence of the man with the Corgi who was also there. Instead, you chose to portray me as unstable, falsely suggesting that I unleashed my dogs aggressively toward you upon seeing you. As a counselor, you should understand the seriousness of making false accusations, especially when there are witnesses and evidence that contradict your story. Spreading false information about someone is never advisable. It appears you sought to present yourself as a victim by fabricating a story. If this provided you with some satisfaction amidst what must be a challenging and sad life for you, so be it. Please be aware that your post has been screenshot, and any footage or witness statements have been preserved.

Gwendolyn Wendy Williamson is listed as a therapist on their site. She has harassment me on facebook for the past 2 month. I created a new profile and thought i blocked all of her fake profiles and then she attacks me from her business page. She is also very messy with her clients information. She sent me a snapshot of our messaging but at the bottom included the snapshots from her phone of her client Roseanne Rice's insurance card, her schedule with other clients and Wendy Passport information as well. I would not trust this person with my personal information.

I was misled by the company when they offered me 6 months free membership but charged me for those 6 months I'm very disappointed about this.

I used a psychologist named Dr. Charles Rubio, based in part because I found him endorsed on Psychology today. I would not recommend him to anyone, and I would certainly not give him permission to privately discuss anything with family. Dr. Rubio was my therapist for two to three years. During my sessions with Dr. Rubio, he asked if I would allow him to contact my daughter, who was the main subject of our therapy. I verbally agreed to this, thinking it would be similar to family counseling, where I would be privy to the conversation. However, he later only gave me HER email replies, cutting of his comments to her. I felt it somewhat strange at the time, since he was my therapist, acting on my behalf, and with my permission. I felt I should have had full knowledge of the entire discussion, but I did push my request. It became clear, as time went by, that he had reinforced her feeling about me, for example telling her he agreed that I was judgmental. This was verified by information she sent me (a print screen of his email). Instead of assisting in reconciliation, he was criticizing me and providing ammunition such as comments like “your mother does not seem like she is trying to achieve reconciliation.” Really? Trying to help me? Additionally, I was unable to get him to provide me with the entire conversation in May 2024, which I felt was an effort at self preservation. I would never recommend as I feel his methods are questionable at best

I was seeking help from a therapist and attempted to use Psychology Today as a referral service. It was recommended that I reach out to at least 2 or more therapists as possibilities. I reached out to 2 therapist, stating my issues and need for help. They both posted very positive profiles and messages. They also encouraged people to not be afraid to reach out and take the very important first steps to reaching out for help. I took that step and reached out. Silence, I received absolutely nothing from either therapist! I find this unethical and unprofessional!! Psychology Today needs to vet these therapists more thoroughly. Their unprofessionalism and unresponsiveness could cause serious damage to potential clients seeking help for their mental well-being. Shameful!!!

Gwendolyn Wendy Williamson is a mechanical materialism- philosophical idealist that tries to convince her patients that there really is a Kantian thing-in-itself nature to reality. Solipsist. Then she goes after her critics on the Facebook ,talking about threatening legal action.

I highly recommend Siwaa Elhakim for counseling purposes, she is the most compassionate and understanding therapist ! she s very affordable however gives an extraordinary service.
