This is a clinic I would not recommend going if you’re wanting to recover the only thing that I can thank them for is keeping me and being able to social security disability benefits. But make no doubt they hide their true intentions amd so far more harm than anything effective would provide beneficial to you . When I first went there one of my therapist doing my intake violated my constitutional rights to religion by forcing me to believe in good I haven’t seen him there since that incident but once and I’m sure he’s still there you won’t see an actual therapist they are all intern doing an internship so no professional treatment will be given there therapy wise and when you are in need the will isolate you from a nurturing environment supportive of your needs to recover the only way you can recover here is doing independently with just educational support from them nothing else good luck with medical treatment coordination they keep everything within the clinic and they do this to sabotage you and thing outside of their circular of mental health treatment they will not coordinate they will sabotage you in every manner possible all they will they you is that they will verbally tell you that you need critical care and cordinate or reffer any of medical treatments you need that they have discovered they will over Medicate you I can prove that to you with myself being at a dose and frequency of administrating interval for the medication I take puts me at a disposition to were I am taking a treatment that when withdraw will induce will suicide successfully they will not share their expertise with you in regards for your care and needs they fully neglectful and don’t be fooled by their caring demeanor u will be aware that they are malicious and inept at treating mental health needs of their patients the staff their takes bets on when patients will commit suicide successfully and even promote it with the care they give you I frequently hear Chris and yu talking about how I am an inevitable suicide and that I will eventually became fully incapacitated of living my own life you should educate yourself with legislative acts regarding mental health and community mental health centers they clearly define that the care you recieve from this county funded clinic should make you meet your maximum potential and they straight up tell you that you will never do that here. They may seem nice at first but as years go by you always see people in group therapy and on each class you see another patient successfully complete suicide it happens in every group that has a class size larger than six with this class size you will see at least one of your classmates in group therapy successfully commit suicide and as you being to socialize within the clinic you will notice that a lot males and it’s gender biased that they will be the ones typically successfully committing suicide and leaving their family and friends victims of the malicious care that this clinic provides also your psychiatrist may seem like the one who is deciding your appointment intervals but if you ever get help by someone who goes by the name nidia or nivia she dictate her opinion as the ruling stipulation at what interval you see your doctor you won’t get anything but manipulative medication therapy and neglectful psychotherapy and your complaints to the director and assistant director Linda and Juliana will only offer ineffective resolution to you problems that will be repeatedly offered and discontinued once you stop complaing or if the clinic wants to perpetuate more malice towards and believe they go the nine yards with me for example I’m supposed to be seeking care with an investigative medical clinician to see what has happend to me regarding my trauma and to investigate my previous psychiatrist and other treatment staff it will come to your awareness that those who demand dignity and effective humane care will be easy ignored and labeled episodic your care will strictly revolve around their wants to keep and perpetuate disability further so get the f**k out of there

Unbelievable. I've been going here for about 3-4 years now and everything has been pretty good until now. I have been trying to get my medication for weeks and my pharmacy will tell me that they are still waiting for a doctor's approval. I called countless times to this center telling them that my pharmacy STILL has not received an approval. I would constantly talk to the nurse, Ronaldo, and he would tell me that my medication is ready for pick up. So when I call my pharmacy, they say they don't have it. Just today, I called AGAIN asking if I can speak to a manager or supervisor because I'm still having trouble getting my medication, and they remembered who I was, but instead they sent me straight to the nurse's station voicemail. At this point, they are not doing their jobs and refusing services to me. NEVER GO TO THIS CENTER FOR MENTAL HEALTH CONCERNS. They haven't called me back after the many voicemails I have left. Definitely not going to continue through them.

I went here for several years and for a while it was good. But after a time I questioned the diagnosis given because I recovered on my own without the medication. Twice. Dr. Chang was my doctor and how I was able to recover on my own challenged her diagnosis for me and in turn her profession as a doctor. I didn't go along for my own sake, and I knew something was wrong because I was never given a objective test or MRI scan or nothing really to validate scientifically that i really had what I diagnosed, Which is standard procedure in Medicine, you get a diagnosis but it has to be proven by an objective test, like labwork, or brainscan, or drug test. These prove you have what is diagnosed to you, I always asked for a test to proved what I was diagnosed. And I was always was denied that, and told I had to take the drugs for the rest of my life. Now if you are told to take the drugs the rest of your life, don't you need a real, real justification and proof that you have what you are diagnosed this. This never seemed right, and the same time Dr. Chang kept pushing Abilify on me, which I had a adverse reaction which the paramedics said I was being overmedicated and had to wait several weeks for this drug to come out of my body. Her remarks to this were "its sad you can't take this medication". The fact I was able to recover without the medication flies in tace of what Dr. Chang and this clinic is claim to be about. No wonder there are multiple diagnoses, and like from me, from different doctors diagnosisng different things, usually just after 10 minutes being with me, or like with one doctor I saw before, just seeing me. No wonder, no one gets better here, they are here year after year, but if you have a real diagnosis you would know how to really treat the problem and it would be done. Saying "you have to take the drugs the rest of your life is not an answer" because these drugs have real dangerous long term affects, such as weight gain which can lead to heart disease. Yet, life from my experience some of these drugs are pushed onto you, especially the newer ones because they are profitable, and the doctors know this but do it anyway. I suggest any person reading this do their own research, question me and what I am saying, and find the answer for yourself, take care and love yourself fully, this is how you get better.
