Real Life Counseling

I have struggled with a variety of mental health issues throughout the course of my life. I was fortunate enough to select RLC to help me walk through some of these, making the road a less lonely place along the way. My counselor Joel has many gifts, most notably being empathy and non-judgement. His unique ability to put specific words to specific emotions has allowed me to continue to educate myself and pursue individual growth in between our sessions. He has consistently modeled for me what being an active and attentive listener looks like over the course of time, and has provided sound guidance while not indulging my weaknesses. I can't recommend his/their services enough.

Real Life Counseling is the most warm, inviting, and just all around best place to get therapy. I have been seeing Brandon for a few years, and I can't express just how knowledgeable, kind, and supportive he is. He really is the best and most wonderful human and therapist you could ask for. I would recommend him a million times over. More than one member of my family sees other therapists in this business and they are all just wonderful humans. When they say it's a safe place, they mean it. If I could give it 100 stars, I would. ❤️

I would never step foot in this office for a therapist again. Extremely unprofessional. You walk in no front desk person. Generally you think oh they friendly and ask hey you here see someone ??? They got a damn ring door bell that no one answer , The therapist I was appointed too never came to the waiting room. After a full 30 minutes I ask a guy works there hey is it normal to wait this long ??? He said no and proceeded to check out the therapist see what’s going on Named Dr Vaughn Sweets why this lady is in session with a client and apparently got double booked. She did not bother to come by and tell me anything. Nor did this lady call me to apologize for the unprofessionalism. This is a therapist yall then they wonder why I have trust issue with this type of service in this City. I went in for therapy trying have an hopeful day because I been battling depression and left mad and frustrated by the poor service and careless this place provided me.

I have been a patient of Monique Horton for over a year and I can't put into words what she has done for me. Monique is the type of therapist that truly cares about her patients and wants the absolute best for them. I was at my lowest point, barely hanging on. Honestly, my children were the only thing keeping me going. It hurt just to be awake. I've been in and out of therapy since I was 10 years old and struggled to find anyone who understood me and cared to help. That all changed when I found Monique. I meet with her every week and honestly, I always look forward to seeing her and her glowing smile. She has helped me make so much progress that I thought was impossible before. Not only is she an amazing therapist, but human being. I can tell her anything and she always listens with no judgement. The amount of love and empathy she has is truly amazing. I don't usually give reviews on anything but I really felt the need to share my experience. While therapy is a journey and not a sprint, I know she will be there to hold my hand and guide me through my journey. It's incredibly comforting to know I have her and she always has my best interests and happiness at heart.

I called to schedule individual therapy, they said they would have someone call me to schedule. A week later, no call. I called them today to see what was going on. The lady was very rude and snippy, she said they had left me two messages and that I hadn't called back and that I requested Kimberly (I don't even know who that is) and that she isn't seeing patients. I told her that I hadn't received any calls or voicemails and that I didn't request anyone, I had just called and said I wanted to schedule an appointment and was told that a Dr. would call me. The woman then rudely said "well we don't have doctors here, we have therapists."..... Given her rude tone and the lack of help I was receiving, that told me the kind of care I was going to get at this office. I told her I would find another office to go to. If they can't hire respectful receptionist, then they must not care much about their patients.
