Mental Health Providers in Fishersville, Virginia

Laura Luke provided a horrible experience. My first appointment was supposed to last 60-90 minutes, 20 minutes in I thanked her for her time and left. She wasn’t understanding anything I was saying about why I came in, just staring with a blank face. When I finally asked what was confusing and how I could better explain myself, she told me it didn’t seem I wanted counseling. It was clear she wasn’t going to be of help for my very common issues that I wanted to work through without any attempt to understand further. Sadly she’s the only one in the office who has room for new patients, I see why.

I have been here multiple times during a rough patch in 2018-2019. It was mostly horrible. To start, They one time brought me in a room with the charge nurse, therapist, activities director and just took like half an hour to belittle me about how my suicidal thoughts were "fake", making fun of how childish I was, etc. they did that because I was in and out a lot when in reality I was stuck at my abusive parents house and needed out. They also got annoyed when anyone would knock in the window for water or something, my roommate one time was treated so bad that they went from just being there for anxiety to being suicidal. They barely ever provided anything like Clean clothes, underwear etc. One time when I got readmitted, the charge nurse confronted me about my comment card I wrote at last discharge that they give you. The charge nurse and her daughter LPN at the time were the worst there. Causing most of these issues.

They were polite when I was there the first time but they gave me medicine that had terrible side effects. I asked for my regular medicine they wouldn't give it to me. They said I had to keep on taking Latuda that was giving me jerking motions and bad side effects. When I called to make an appointment during covid I was unable to fill out the paper she asked because the link she sent was dead and then they told me I could never come back again. So thanks for helping me know that this is obviously not the place for mental health
