GBAbleism and Disrespect Lavender Psychiatry should really do some pre-screening. They booked me for an appointment, I filled out a very long intake form full of personal information (including financial) and was told they couldn't work with me because I had a concussion 11 years ago. They also will not work with anyone who even might be autistic. There's some weird ableism there and also no respect for client time, energy, and the difficulty of disclosure.

GBpestered me to make a new appointment… pestered me to make a new appointment and then want to charge me $100 because I tried to cancel within 24 hours due to an emergency. The care is not good, if you just need pills its fine but dont try to utilize their care team.

GBThey are crooks, do not go with them Hi, I just started and new at this. Never done video chat. So nothing was explained on how to use this site. First time, they call late no answer. Second time called late no answer. I was charged $300.00 for no show but I have insurance. Insurance is suppose to cover. Now i asked for refund, they blackmail me and said I'll refund you when you go to a new session. I said no thanks, I just want my refund. I'm not working. Now they say, you can't get it back because they said so. Thanks thieves.

GBBiggest waste of time Please, please, PLEASE don't waste your time with them if you are seriously in need of help. As someone else mentioned, they have you fill out an intake form (once you've already made your appointment), then will reach out and cancel it a few days later based on how you answer the intake form. I also was looking for help with anxiety and depression, which they say they treat, yet was denied service. I don't know who runs this place or makes the policies but they need to hire someone else.

GBWhen I needed help, they didn't help I've been seeing lavender for a few months now and my experience has been very bad and I'm switching providers. Firstly the practitioner I was seeing was not very professional. At one point I took an assessment for a condition and the next time we met to go over the results she "joked" that I was not positive for the condition and then revealed it was a big goof and I actually was positive for the condition. SO FUNNY RIGHT? Beyond just the provider, the administration supporting the provider was very poor. I was prescribed a medication that is currently in short supply and when I went to fill my prescription I was told by the pharmacy I would not be able to get the prescription filled for 3 months. I went to Lavender and they told me I would have to schedule a new appointment which makes sense. But then the pharmacy called 40 house before my appointment and they were able to get the prescription filled, Hurray! I contact the administration, they say you are in the 48 hour period either you go through with the appointment or we charge you $140 for no showing on the session. I ask for a bit of leniency were circumstances that were out of my control and I did the best I could. They tell me "too bad" and just bill me $140. Within this whole ordeal, they also lost my insurance information which led to this confusing set of emails where they told me they aren't willing to see un-insured people (I've been insured through the entirety of our relationship) and just honestly felt like they wanted my money and not to help me. There are tons of other options and providers out there. Just stay away from this provider.
