Mary Caruso, MA

Terrible approach in all aspects. I knew something was not right by my first telephone conversation with her to schedule. She is licensed but has no idea what she is doing, or does she? She literally sits in a chair and does not say a word. She only cares about your insurance how she will get paid for the visit. She did not offer one bit of guidance or feedback. It is very scary that she is trusted with vulnerable people who need help, especially those that think counseling is supposed to be like this. I am certain she has a mental illness herself and she should not work in this capacity. At the end of the session she literally stands up and opens the door for you to leave, not one second past your allotted time. Terrible experience, almost laughable. I will NEVER recommend her.

Very difficult to communicate with as a parent. After 5 visits, my 13 year old did not understand the purpose of the visits, and had no goals or techniques to use at home. I never felt like she cared about my child. Visits ended with Mary threatening to turn my child in to collections for a late cancelation fee.

Terrible person, acted like she didnt want to be there.

Cell phone repeatedly beeped. She turned the volume down. (Not off) repeatedly turned her back to me clearly working on something unrelated to me as a client. Very unprofessional. Very rude and did not listen to my concerns. Unempathetic.
