Patrick Dechello, LCSW

An utter nightmare of an experience. My girlfriend and I went in for couples counseling with this person, he developed an instant and inexplicable personal animus towards me, was rude and obnoxious throughout the two sessions we were unfortunate enough to have together with him, and instead of having even the faintest interest in listening to us and understanding our interpersonal dynamics or us as individuals, actually threatened my girlfriend when I wasn’t present that he would immediately cut off any and all future sessions with us if she didn’t dump me immediately. I’m not kidding. I would say that he is almost comically unprofessional, but given the gravity of our concerns with his very disturbing behavior, and the feeling of betrayal we feel from our experience, that doesn’t seem to cut it. He is a real stain on his profession. I’m warning you… Stay FAR away!
