Neil Schierholz PsyD

I’m surprised to see the other review on here, I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with Dr. Schierholz. I wasn’t originally gonna write anything, but wanted to even the scales a bit.
I first met with Dr. Schierholz a few months ago and have always enjoyed talking with him. While his methods may seem a bit different than other therapists, I find it to be very effective. Sometimes you have to try a couple therapists to see what works for you. I’ve tried a couple before Dr. Schierholz that didn’t work out. To each their own.

This is the first negative review that I have ever left, but in this case I must tell you: whatever you do, do not hire Dr. Schierholz. This man should not be allowed to treat patients, and in fact I have had to consider whether to file a professional complaint against him.
After a very nice initial consultation, I met with him. He sat me far across the room from him, and in the process of asking me about my issues and history, made me feel very uncomfortable. Things came to a head when he asked me if I’d feel better about things if I «came and sat in his lap.» At this point, he had crossed the line far beyond any professional interaction, and I ended the meeting.
He did not offer me any advice, nor do anything but listen to my issues, tell me that I had lots of problems, and then make an odd sexual advance. He then tried to charge me for not only that session, but the following!
Once again, run, do not walk, away from this very bad doctor.
