Mac Associates

"Compassionate counselor! Listens with empathy. Gives constructive advice."

"I attended 5 weeks of counseling at Mac Associates. That's all my soul could endure. The utter and blatant disrespect for any individuals who attend class couldn't be more egregious. The operation is a tyraid and money grab! They send people away for nefarious reasons which in my case was a couple candy wrappers which fell on the floor the week prior! Then will Charge you for a class you didn't attend and add one more! I watched in horror as person after person was ridiculed and belittled openly and publicly and told to leave or they were having classes added. They corral you like cattle with almost 30 other people no bigger than a child's bedroom! How the county of Pinellas endorses Mac Associates is beyond my comprehension and is a crying shame. The frustration is palpable! There was no group discussion or enlightenment in any class I attended. I seek many other forms of counciling to better myself and rehabilitate my character and have worked hard to improve over the last year and have experienced great programs with an actual path of self awareness and at the least a moral compass. This place will leave you in shock, horror and feeling victimized! I AM GOING TO CONTACT STATE ATTORNEYS OFFICE AND FIREMARSHALL! They need to be shut down! Peace be with you. SEEK ALTERNATIVE ROUTE!"
