This causes emotional stress, may add to health problems, and interfere with work, school, home life. Can Couples Therapy help?

I was in need of help. My Urgent Care kept telling me my EKG was fine, but my chest pains were real.
They saved me by referring me to Dr Sarlak at this facility. The last 3 months under Dr Sarlak constant vigilance along with Dr Dunbars supervision has been a life changer
It wasn't about only recovery, it is about shifting my whole thought process, it is about changing the patterns that made me not only physically sick, unproductive, and frozen, it is about me taking back my life. I only wish I had Dr Sarlak 40 years ago.
I highly recommend this office, I never felt alone, I was given tools

After asking a question about coverage to a staff member for my son, and then sending an email to confirm coverage issues and pre authorization Dr Dunbar cancels an appointment for my son unethically and states libelous remarks about me via email. In my opinion this is unprofessional and having dealt with doctors in my professional life I would never recommend going to a facility like this or using Dr Dunbar’s services. If asking a coverage question is enough to cancel an appointment, something is not right. I plan on reporting this conduct to my insurance carrier

Extremely appalled at the lack of professionalism exhibited by Edward Dunbar and his unwillingness to answer questions regarding this facilities testing and assessment process to diagnose my 18 year-old son, who was recently released from a 7-day suicidal hold (and who also has a 2-generation family history of suicide).
Dunbar refused to speak with me despite my son’s request and authorization to do so. Dunbar was uninterested in explaining the process and was unwilling to listen or understand the purpose of my son’s visit. I’m not clear on how anyone could adequately assess and diagnose

Was seeing Dr. Dunbar for a year. After I had a meltdown it was recommended I take a medical leave from work. Dr. Dunbar said he'd fill out the paperwork with me so that I could continue to receive a stream of income and not have my job be in jeopardy. I accidentally missed a couple of appointments dealing with other points of stress and his professionalism dropped immensely. He got angry and apparently his ego was very hurt. He refused to help me with my paperwork or even see me again without paying a large fine (when before he always just sent the bill after the fact). He left me, someone who
