Phyllis Levy, MSW

After 2 months of meeting weekly, I stopped seeing Phyllis after she yelled at me. Yes, the therapist yelled at the patient. We had unpacked a lot over this time which caused irritability and frustration. Today's session consisted of her telling me that the person I'm in conflict with has his own trauma and that I need to understand his need for routine, she accused me of refusing to accept this person for who they are. I explained to her that I was getting frustrated because her advice in a previous scenario indicated that I need to set boundaries, but then the advice today was that I need to accept them for who they are. Within reason my tone was not cheery but not once had I used disrespectful language nor yelled at her. She refused to hear me say I was not mad at her or refusing her advice but instead was looking for clarification as she was too busy saying "I'm just not going to give you advice then" among ither accusatory things. After she continued to escalate, I ended the call.

Ms. Levy is amazing! She deeply cares about her patients. She’s always on time and sends reminders for follow up appointments. My wife and I have been using her services for over 6 months and with her help and guidance we are truly in a much better place.

Amazing she really helped me in a way that i needed. Helped me through the toughest time in my life.

The worst therapist I’ve ever been to. Me & my boyfriend did couples therapy with her while I was pregnant & she told us she did not think I would be able to be in a relationship unless I was medicated for “most my life.” True or not, I was pregnant & could not be medicated. She fixated on that instead of trying to help. I was In a very vulnerable place being pregnant and she was extremely cruel. I had a very vivid breakdown while she was our therapist & my boyfriend called her for assistance & she insisted I was “doing it for attention” (her exact words) and I should cut it out.... Overall we were displeased with our time as Phyllis. If you have actual issues & trauma, I do not recommend Phyllis.

Excellent therapist, caring, and compassionate.
