Easterseals Blake

I've been seeing Dr Herron for close to if not over a dozen years. Since moving to Blake Easter Seals he no longer has the ability to write a 90-day supply for my medication, not of any state or federal regulations, just their policies so I need to get a prescription every 30 days. Now where I'm from the definition of insanity is “doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result” Well my pills must be working because I don't expect success every month… My expectation is that it's going to take major footwork on my part to get this done and more times than not it takes longer than 30 days to get my medication. Their the ones who are trying to get it done successfully and failing themselves! Now who's insane here?

Well I have to say definitely hands down worst place in casa grande to get help with depression and anxiety, I had a therapist here for about 3 appts now ,but today was the worse she came all tired and yawning throughout the session and then took a five minute break for going to restroom, which she could have done before she got on appt thewith me ! Then came back and I thought she would make that time up for me but no ,instead she cut my appt off and I still had ten minutes left on my time with her ,I was in so much shock she had done that I didn't say anything to her then I got really mad that had happened I let my caseworker know ! I will be letting my pcp know I no longer want her to refer me to any mental health places here in town ,now I know why people don't get much help with mental health issues it's to do with how they are treated at these places and lack of support, I guess I bored my therapist cause she yawned so much ! And the nurse practitioner whi changed my depression meds last week ,is no longer with the company and the meds she gave me did not work and gave Me too many side effects I had to put myself back on my old ones I was taking ,totally useless and a waste of my time.people don't get help with mental health problems here they just let you fall through the cracks and don't care ! It's really sad .

My granddaughter has an 8 year old daughter who has behavioral issues. She has been assigned to a counselor at your facility. She was in urgent need of assistance from this counselor today, a counselor who should be available at all times. The woman was totally unreachable all afternoon! The crisis hotline was unable to reach her as well! She was forced to just take her to the Banner Crisis hospital. If your organization is incapable of providing the support these families need, recommend one that is!

This place has changed mine and my son's life. We both have a whole team behind us and I feel that there's nothing we cant not accomplish with them backing us. Some of the doctors, therapists, case managers, and early intervention specialists have truly become like extended family to us and I can't imagine life without them in it now. Thank you Easterseals ♥️

Definitely a great organization and a huge part of the community. I have attended a few of their events and they are all about helping people. Definitely keep them in mind if you need to donate or need a charitable organization.

I’ve been a client of every mental health organization in Pinal County since 2009. Before I found Blake Foundation, I had negative experiences with each organization with either inept prescribers, discrimination by counselors, a lack of dedicated counselors (most are hired by AHCCCS providers for initial experience upon receiving their master’s degrees, then after 6 months to two years, they leave, which is not good if you have cPTSD), and/or unethical case managers. I had given up by 2016, believing that there wasn’t any behavioral health agency in my area that meets my needs, so I stopped searching for a couple of years, which was when I found BF when I drove past their offices. And I’ve been very satisfied with the quality of my dedicated counselors since. Four things I like about BF are: 1) they prefer hiring counselors who intend on staying in the area and with BF long term; 2) They like to hire therapists who have specialized in understanding cPTSD; 3) Since they are a branch of Easter Seals, you can feel assured that they have much experience working with individuals from early childhood through adult, so they know their stuff when working with pervasive disorders, like those on the autism spectrum; and 4) they are CARF accredited, which means their agency has meet the professional requirements to be one of the top mental health agencies in the country. This allows them access to additional funding from other resources so to cover expenses for counseling, and other services, which some consumers may not otherwise by eligible for, even if they are made Medicaid (AHCCCS) eligible.

So weird that there's only three reviews and all are negative. We've never had a bad experience with ESBF.
