Juan Padilla, BA

Juan is a very bad mental health professional. He was a bad counselor who belittled clients (including me) and was often narcissistic, saying how great of a counselor he was. He even told me how he was the best counselor in the area and he spent all our session talking about unrelated topics. It was invasive even, asking me about my religious beliefs and questioning them. He was rude, narcissistic and inattentive. I'm saddened to know he is now Director of mental health services at Renew. He was bad as a mental health counselor and as head of an entire department for it is honestly terrible news. He alone has made Renew worse in regards to mental health services.

Confrontational, argumentative and minimizes patients’ illness and suffering. He’s also very stubborn and self-centered. He believes he’s the best counselor in the area and one time belittled and mocked the competence and knowledge of other counselor. I can’t recommend him at all.
