William Northey Jr, PhD

Very unprofessional. Not transparent about billing. Felt scammed. Going to report him. We booked an hour session and I kept checking the time but he kept going and then charged me for the extra time. He didn’t stop to ask or anything. I should have spoken up, but I’ve been to a few therapists and I’ve never had these things happen. He then charged me even more for a “coordination fee” that he never gave me notice about ahead of time. I went in agreed on a $200 session and ended up paying $280. The next day I emailed him about the charge and he told me the fee was for answering calls, emails, and documentation! Never heard of this in my life! Also, we only ever emailed. We did a “free consult” over the phone. No mention of fees. He didn’t take a single note during our session. I’m very uncomfortable with the whole experience. He also told my 9 year old to be a better liar. I thought he was joking but I didn’t think it was appropriate for my 9 year old. It was very strange.
