Arbor Counseling - Allston

I hope that eveyone is trying their best but the front desk staff is routinely short and curt not quite rude but youre definitely a nuisance. My therapist was fine did the trick. The NP in charge of all prescriptions etc is CONTINUALLY running behind on appointments. I waited 4 hours and she ended up never seeing me before they closed.

This rehabilitation is the most un helpful program i have sent my daughter to she was struggling with mental ilness and kids gave her drugs during prosess every child should be checked and examed before enter.awful staff and service. service was terrible.

Sometimes the front desk can be difficult but I dont have to deal with them all that often. My actual therapist is amazing. Ive been seeing her for about four years now and I am so fortunate to be working with her. She is super dedicated and really cares. She is also well trained and very competent. I trust her and I think shes an amazing therapist. I also saw a couples counselor for a short time at Arbour Allston and felt the same way about her - I thought she was incredibly competent and also just a genuinely good human who cared about the service she was providing and the outcome of the treatment. In my experience its also easier to find a therapist here than other places because they have more therapists on staff. Many other places there are very long waitlists which can be very frustrating and detrimental to your health if youre in a crisis.

When I was a small child going through the toughest moments of my life the school forced my parents through poor standards of decisions into sending me to the Boston Center. NEVER in my entire life have I been treated with such rudeness and disrespect and I dont ever plan on getting to such a point again. I was NOT by any means a troubled child I had a disability that was refused proper recognition but I was lumped in with the future lawbreakers of America who bullied and mistreated me without any reinforcement on my behalf from any staff member. My mother would sit outside the locked doors each day crying her eyes out as she couldnt fix her sons torture. Im nearly at the age of 23 and to this day I havent escaped that awful trauma from nearly seventeen hellish years ago.In the words of my father I wouldnt have sent my worst enemy to that place. Dad meant that with all truth and no exaggeration and for all I went through I hope all those who participated in this culture of cruelty can see what they did to me and everyone else they mistreated and that theyre able to reconcile with those they hurt and traumatized so badly.

Great services. Ive had them since I was little boy. Im now in my 30s and services and treatment are still great. Thanks to CODVID-19 the service has changed. However Arbor will forever be my place of mental health services

I came here for a diagnosis and got medically poisoned and ended up having serious recovery. I had to notarize my mental health records because they were...

The staff annoyed the hell out of me but my Clinician Maggie was extremely nice even though I only had her for my first visit she was still extremely supportive I forget the name of my second clinician but she was nice too. Shes the one who got me on anti-depressants when I needed them. My in home therapist from arbor that I had for about three years Helen was the best she made me exited about therapy and actually made me feel comfortable to talk about my problems she visited me at my out-patiant and provided me with a mentor. Over all this place is nice

Came here September 2014 for partial hospitalization. All the staff we dealt with were on unpaid internships. It was 1 hour therapy 1 hour schoolwork 1 hour recreation maybe another hour of therapy activities. I felt like we were there just to pass the time because we werent considered stable enough to go back to school. They made us write gratitude lists and then wed get treats in the end. That was nice. It just felt very routine. Didnt talk much to the other patients. We were all directed to talk under the supervision of the counselors. When you left they do a graduation which I think is sort of fake and awkward. It was a bit dull I would say. We were just there to pass the time.

Whoever the front desk people are are truly not right for the job. Thats your first point of contact for people seeking help which takes a lot to do and...

Ive been taking my son here for several years and have had a very good experience. His social worker David W. is excellent. They are always caring and helpful at Arbour.

I went here for a day program twice. Most of the staff are extremely unhelpful and the program is designed to make you think about your problems without actually working on them. The patients were nice and helpful but helpful peer to peer discussions were often shut down. They are very good at working with school but not much else.For people looking to actually find help I would recommend the day program at Bournewood hospital
