Deri Adair is hands down the best therapist ever. She has helped me immensely through some really hard times and has given me coping strategies to deal with some ongoing medical hardships. I highly recommend her expertise!

Is there a '-' rating? Highly unsatisfactory business Their owner Michelle Apple treats the client like it's a widget on assembly line. She didn't take responsibility for her billing department's incompetence and error. The billing department- keeps changing from bad to worse with every new company they outsource it. Allison Temple manager - incompetent, uncaring, strings the client along for months with incomplete and inaccurate details. Blames the client and leaves it on her to follow up with insurance, and still not resolve the issues favorably. Family Tree was a great company before they were

So disappointed with my experience at this counseling office. My credit card was overcharged more than double on my original visit. Then, was charged again the same day before the first charge was refunded.The front office staff was uncaring and uncommunicative. The billing department was downright rude. I don't think these people care about their clients or patients.I would definitely avoid this place and find a counseling office that cares.

Kisha - a great individual who can relate to what the person is going through. She listens with an open mind, heart and wants the best for you. Easy to talk and provides great reading material to help you understand how you can improve.

It has been a delight sitting and talking with Shannon. My life was is turmoil when I attended my 1st session. It has b even a 360 since my 1st visit. Shannon helped me with making some tough life decisions. I feel a lot better now. Thanks to Shannon, I'm more hopeful on what the future has in store for me.

So sad this place does not care about it's patients. Only cares about getting your money. There is a high lack of communication and common sense. Trying to find a therapist is already a stressful situation, then to deal with an admin stuff who doesn't listen to the clients needs. They charged without consent before they even submitted the claim to insurance. What kind of doctors office does this?

Jennifer Maupin, now Jennifer Anderson has been my counselor for a while now. I went in when my life was turned upside down, and I was an emotional disaster. Over the years and months she has helped me to see just how amazing I am. She has helped me to peel back some layers, dig deep, and love myself. She has also been amazing in "keeping it real" with me. She doesn't sugar coat the truth, and makes me feel like she genuinely cares about me as a person, not just as a patient. I can't say enough just how much of an impact she has made on my life!! I love love love Jennifer, and

I was looking for a Farsi speaking Therapist around the Plano area and I found Yas Farrokh. I highly recommend you go and see her at Apple Counseling (Frisco location). She's a great listener, very caring, very friendly, easy to talk to and very professional. Although I only had a few sessions with her since last month I do feel much better after each Therapy session. I wish I could give Mrs. Yas Farrokh more than 5 stars because she's just amazing!

J. Shannon Dusza is an excellent licensed counselor in Prosper, TX. She is understanding, nonjudgmental, caring, and wise. She helped me through a very difficult time in my life. I would not have been able to navigate the emotional journey, with its highs and lows, on my own. I highly recommend her services through Apple Counseling.

I had the same negative experience as previous reviewer. When I called the office to ask about counseling, the first thing out of the receptionist's mouth was "what insurance do you use?" The message: we're only interested in your money. I would have been fine discussing payment but only after investigating whether it was a good fit. It's hard enough to reach out for help but when you're treated like a dollar sign it only makes it worse.

Several years ago when my daughter was a teenager she needed help for her anxiety and depression. Apple Counseling guided her with coping mechanisms and ways to deal with "life." My daughter recently graduated college and can manage her depression successfully. I am thankful for Michelle Apple and the years she worked with my daughter. There are not enough words to express the impact Michelle Apple made in my daughters life. Thank you!

Dani Larsen in the Frisco office is amazing! My husband and I have been her clients for the last three months. We immediately clicked with her. She listens and truly helps to provide techniques that will help us grow and resolve our issues. Dani is realistic that our issues are going to take time and is very patient when we have those weeks when we back slide a bit. She truly cares about our well being and that we succeed and improve our relationship. We have had a great experience with the front office as well. Always helpful when it comes to scheduling or cancelling an appointment. I highly recommend

The absolute WORST experience ever. Just trying to make an appt stresses you out. It sucks when you're already going through something difficult and then you have people who answer the phone- who are supposed to be the face/frontline of the business being rude. First off in order just for them to run your insurance to see if they even accept it will cost you $75 (as told to me by Allison) and even if they don't take your insurance you "might" get it back. I was then told that "fine" they will check my insurance but I cannot make an appt. Isaid that was ok. I later

April Dodson is a wonderful counselor that has really helped my husband and me. She really cares and is very invested. She made a big difference in our marriage and I would recommend her to anyone. We went to 3 psychologists before her and are so happy we found her.

Michelle Apple in the Highland Park office was tremendously helpful in helping me navigate some anxiety issues that popped out of seemingly nowhere in my early 40s. I found Michelle to be a great listener -- talking to her was validating in a way that friends and family who hadn't experienced anxiety could not be, through no fault of their own. Highly recommended!

I wouldn't recommend, I scheduled an appointment for my son in which they immediately requested a $70 deposit. I've never paid a deposit before an appointment & this should've been a red flag. About a day later we realized that the therapist wasn't in my network & would have to cancel the appointment. I tried calling for about a week & never got an answer nor a return call, trying the get a refund of the $70 that I was charged. I finally got a hold of someone in the Prosper office that was very rude & pretty much called me a liar. She informed me that they would

I just found out that Apple Counseling & Consulting had terminated my counselor(only Black counselor), because she's not like the other counselors. I'm so upset that they terminated this wonderful counselor who could relate to my pain and helped me so much. I'm so outraged that this happened to my counselor. My counselor suffers from illness and they watched her move all her stuff out and didn't even help or hold the door open for her. Now that they took away the best person who was on her way to help me, I'm once again back to square one. Thanks, Apple Counseling

Apple counseling has offered me excellent care, support, and counseling through a very difficult time in my life. From the front office experience of getting scheduled and answering questions to my actual counseling experience.

I do not know how I would have made it through this difficult time without Michelle and the staff. Her expertise and ability to help me through this time in my life I am very thankful for. I highly recommend Apple Counseling for your family and any counseling needs you may have now or in the future.

My family and I have been seeing Michelle for several years. Michelle is very down to earth and has great advice.

Shawn (I hope I'm spelling her name correctly) and Nolan are both pleasant and great to work with. There's also a patient portal that'll let you schedule your own appointments.

Apple counseling was able to get my son in for an emergency appointment with Dr A on the same day. They were incredibly caring and understanding. Dr A was super great with kids and had a very sweet manner with my son. I would definitely recommend them to friends!

I feel blessed to have found Michelle Apple and Apple Counseling when I was looking for a counselor for my daughter. Michelle did a great job of establishing trust with her and broaching the subjects that my daughter preferred to avoid. In addition to Michelle, I've had some sessions with Katie. She does a great job of zeroing in on the issue, helping you make a game plan to address it, and then holding you accountable as you move forward. And while I haven't had personal experience with the other counselors, I would say that all the staff is kind and caring. It's a place where

Worst service ever...
A place that's supposed to treat people with compassion has the most unfriendly people ever to help customers.. All they care about is their payment. I had to cancel my appointment because my baby was sick and had to go to the doctor, and all she said was ok, but you will be charged for your appointment.

Sad to say this kinda places must not be allowed to be in practice.
