Dr. Michael Bridgewater

"Michael age prevents him from being able to practice counseling effectively he constantly forgets things you you already told him he also ask many inappropriate and disrespectful questions though out the session Michael is no longer fit to practice counseling"

"I would not recommend this counselor if you’re looking to work on your marriage. He’s a very old fashioned, male chauvinistic counselor. He completely took my husband’s side, became extremely biased and my repeated imploring to hear my point of view, my frustration fell on deaf ears. I was in an abusive marriage where my partner was very controlling, suspicious and narcissistic. Mr Bridgewater somehow refused to see his flaws but mine were discussed week after week. I would not choose him."

"I helped my partner make an appointment to see Dr. Bridgewater because of his alleged military experience. In addition to using religion heavily in the session, Bridgewater also tried to steer my partner towards some kind of medieval marriage counseling (which we don’t need) and when my partner left, Bridgewater immediately called me and told me everything my partner had said in what should have been a confidential session. It’s the biggest breach of trust a mental health provider can make. It’s also illegal. We reported him to the Texas licensing board, which took two years to ultimately do nothing. But do not see this “practitioner”. Violating patient confidentiality is cruel and hurtful to people who are already hurting. Doing so to try and end a relationship you disapprove of for religious reasons is insane. This man should be barred from practicing."

"If you want to go to a therapist who doesn't listen and over bills you, he's your guy."
