Barbara E Nelson, MFT

What you should know: Barbara wants to get paid and that’s YOUR responsibility. Even though you dutifully pay her your copay before the session even begins, know it often takes her 12 weeks to get paid by the insurance company & she only gets $ 60.00 an hour but she wants $ 125.00 an hour. Our final session was ALL ABOUT BARBARA. Don’t bother to remind her that you pay her to talk about boring ol’ you because Barbara wants to make more money! (Get it? Got it? Good!) I spent the first 10 minutes of my last session listening to Barbara’s financial wishes AND I GOT TO PAY HER FOR LISTENING TO HER TALK ABOUT… HER. And then I left because this has happened before in previous sessions, & I suspect (no, KNOW) it would happen again.
Your issues? Go home & talk to your dog. Because this is all about Barbara, & mama needs a new pair of shoes.

This so called «therapist» treated a family member and was just terrible! She violated her oath and her legal obligation by not reporting a suicidal patient until after she got her $ 6,000.00 (plus expenses meals and hotel costs) for fee. We found her to be very money oriented and more concerned about getting paid then our beloved family members health. She conducted a failed intervention. She was so unprofessional it was shocking. She broke our family apart and drove deep divsions among us. She even sent us all letters saying that we were to blame, actually calling us names (after she cashed her check of course)
This so called professional is a very sad example of a mental health professional.
