I've gained so much.... a better understanding of myself/my thoughts/my actions, the ability and openness to understand, the willingness to be vulnerable and the strength to truely forgive and let go. It might not always be easy, but it has always been worth it.
Dr. Evans might not be for everyone but he is definitely for me. Takes a straight forward no BS approach. Will tell it like it is and not fluff it up to rainbows and puppy kisses. Tells you what you need to hear even if its not what you want to hear.

Rude, condescending arrogant and a bit of a pervert. Looked at my 4 year old child strange and referred to her as an adult and told her she did not have to listen to us (her parents). Proceeded to put down another patient in front of us (which is against HIPPA). Sent me out of the room so he could be alone with my child where he told her that her school was not a good school because it was full of rich snooty kids. We went for family therapy but he only wanted to see just her without us. SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG WITH THIS MAN. WARRNING STAY AWAY AND KEEP YOU LITTLE GIRLS AWAY FROM HIM. He also shorted us 10.00 on our copay which I did not catch until we had left. There was no way I was going back for my 10.00 he scared both of us.

Not professional, lacks rapport. Tends to take sides, which is a pitfall for some marriage counselors. Should have read and weighed the past reviews carefully.

Horrible experience Very unprofessional
I think Dr. Evans set our marriage counseling back by several months. We went to him in good faith and it costs us thousands of dollars in several months before we realized we were taken advantage of. We continued seeing him because he told us in the beginning that he was going to teach us skills to better our marriage. But after several months and a few thousand dollars short, he told us that we were helpless and not ever going to improve your life so why even try.
He is very aggressively bias, condescending, insulting and beats you down with criticism and harsh words. He did not listen and cut us off often. He is very combative and baited us into fights with him. He eventually offered no solutions except confusing unclear comments. He lacks the ability to educate you on how to correct your situation. He makes you feel awful about yourself, offers no concrete solutions or examples in helping you obtain better skills. He frequently demeans you and insults you in front of your spouse and says he is confident that you will never be happy together. He advocates divorce often instead of helping you. It is unfortunate to have to leave a negative feedback but it is better to inform those who cann’t afford thousands of dollars and wasteful time.

Remember That No One Ever Kicks a Dead Dog

When you are kicked and criticized, remember that it is often done because it gives the kicker a feeling of importance. It can often mean that you are accomplishing something and are worthy of attention. Many people get a sense of savage satisfaction out of denouncing another person.

Unjust criticism is often disguised as a compliment. The more you try to pacify and to smooth over injured feelings in order to escape criticism, the more certain you are to increase your enemies. Some people are not looking to improve the quality of their lives, but to be right, control, and find gratification in tearing others down.

Dr. Evans has been my mentor for years now. I have been fortunate enough for him to take the time to teach me the theory and approaches that he uses for his clients. I have seen him change people's lives. He has the courage to say what people need to hear in order for them to take control of their own lives. The field needs more professional like him.

Very unprofessional, rude with clients and people he works with. Not able to make correct diagnosis. Not able to perform therapy and appears not to know how to perform therapy. Not able to draw correct conclusions. Lying to your spouse about what the other said about them. Just lying in general. He is a divorced marriage counseling who himself cheated on this wife we found out- explains a lot about his own sense of self. He appears unhappy himself. Just tells you that you are helpless and not ever going to improve your life so why even try. Very incompetent therapist- the worst therapist you will ever have!

He has a "one size fits all' approach and made our case about his ego. I was completely distressed during my appointment. I was unable to relax and felt like it didn't matter what I said. He was extremely argumentative and berating. I was trying to explain my situation and they just contradicted everything I was saying before I could finish. I would never recommend him for anyone.

I approached therapy with an open mind and learned that it is most difficult to look at yourself versus point fingers at your significant other or family. Dr Evans' approach is direct and to the point. This approach does not work for everyone however if you are BRAVE enough to look at YOURSELF and be RESPONSIBLE for YOUR ACTIONS and accept constructive criticism, then you will have great success with your sessions. The past year has undoubtedly been one of the most difficult as therapy is WORK. With hard work comes great reward. Dr Evans has and continues to assit me in my positive mental health journey and he will do the same for anyone willing to work on themselves.

I felt Dr Evans was very helpful. He is a caring person, but was willing and able to tell me what I needed to know to make changes in my life. It wasn't always easy to hear, but real change is not about taking the easy way out. As John Kennedy once said, "Do not wish for easy lives, wish to be stronger men."
