Gail A. Shade, MA., PsyD

"I had several sessions with her and so did my child. Based on the statements she made to me, I feel she was very sexist against men and fathers. I would not recommend her. "Weekends at dad's are just fun time, kids don't learn anything there" and "If the kids lived with you full time, they'd be acting up there too". These are just a few of the mind-blowing things she said to me. She also ignored everything ex wife said that would concern any rational person and when confronted just normalized it all. In a world of equal rights and non-descrimination, I don't understand how we still have people like this with a license."

"She saw me when I was young into my teens and now sees my little one can’t recommend her enough. She really has a wonderful atmosphere and truly listens to her clients"

"I visited her from when I was 5 years old to almost 15. She is a kind,funny,heartwarming, and smart woman. She took care of me and my family like we were her own. Her office is such a calm and relaxing environment. Sometimes I still wish I could talk to her and see her cause of how much she helped me. She is absolutely wonderful. Whenever I talked to her about my family or a certain family member, she instantly knew who I was talking about and how to handle it. I reccomend her to anyone who is local and needs someone to talk to."

"As described previously, she hates all men. You will be wrong and at fault no matter what the facts or truth are. She is in cahoots with Judge Sally Jackson, Attorney Brenda Waugh, Attorney Cynthia Gaither, Home Base Inc. and any and all other feminist females in the Berkeley County Family Court System. If you are "ordered" or it is "recommended" that you see her and you are a man, don't. Find your own counselor that is not involved in this state sponsored circle of vindiction and injustice."

"Sorry folks. She is a quack. A man hater and on county payroll. Use her services at own risk. I know we have our own circumstances but she is to busy to know the truth. Good luck to all. She is a good person. But as a person to know the truth. She is to busy. Berkeley springs is just one horse town with to many hillbillies with so many problems."
