Hello Dear,
I am writing to you to make you aware about my experience while attending family counseling with- Nicole Marie McNeil at Clear Perspective, LLC-Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC. The reason I decided to make you aware of this issue is not only because of the horrible experience I encountered, but because I would not like for this to happen to anybody else, specially innocent people. I feel it is the right thing to do. And if I became a therapist or counselor I would never treat my clients this way.

Unprofessional, Disrespectful Therapist

For five (5) months my husband and I participated in family counseling with our minor daughter who has many psychiatric disorders and behavioral issues. The Therapist Nicole Marie McNeil, was unprofessional, rude and disrespectful to me and my husband.

Nicole works in concert with The Division of Family Service Children's Division. She was biased and in favor of our minor daughter. She was laser focused on all of the comments, feelings and wishes of our minor daughter.

Nicole never honored our observations, experiences, input or wishes about our minor daughter. She cut us short when we spoke, was very rude and rarely called us by our name. She will quickly say our daughters name, the foster parent name, the case worker name and all other people's name from Children's Division. She insulted us by stating that we only have conditional love for our daughter and we do not understand her psychiatric and behavioral issues.

She had the gall to write not one but two (2) letters with hurtful intent to the judge overemphasizing her beliefs how bad my husband and I are. This is 100% not true. We do not recommend using Nicole McNeil as a therapist or counselor.

Please find attached the letter Nicole McNeil wrote to the Lincoln County Juvenile Court.

Thank you.

Respectfully,
A former client
