Community Behavioral Health Services — Mental health service in City and County of San Francisco, CA

The reception staff are the best and the therapists are knowledgeable and helpful despite it being balls hot in their office

Do the job, but the organization level remains pretty low. They regularly send my pills to the wrong address, forget about scheduling appointments and lab tests

Literally been waiting 2 hours past the time of my mental health appointment to see a professional only for their lazy self to say they will call me. No accountability whatsoever from this crooked institution.

In 2016, I sought help, grievance, and legal help, yet I was told to "settle" unsettling civil and criminal issues with the administrators where I live. I wanted to commit suicide several times. . . . THE CLINICAL STAFF ILLEGALLY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE PEOPLE WITH OR WITHOUT REASON. Obviously, some patients get "cured" while I alone lay rotting and embittered. Wish you experienced and felt the way I did back then: NO HELP! Hire a lawyer first. UPDATE: Many years has passed since I sought help to improve both my mental and physical health. For me, my mental illness is deeply rooted in growing up with a disabled sibling whose envy, jealousy, resentment, and hatred was displaced onto me, sabotaging my livelihood, and my ultimate demise. Combine that with growing up in a dysfunctional family, societal ignorance and stigma with mental illness and blindness; scapegoating and alienation is society's elixir. Only a paucity of medical professionals and clinicians understand both my mental and physical health; however, that price only comes due with significant age, listening, learning, discourse, experience, maturity, responsibility, ethics, morals, analysis, professionalism, leadership, work, and integrity. Self-effacing, indulgent, corruptive, and destructive habits only worsen ones mental health. Expecting and wanting too many things is a very bad idea. As an adult, one parents oneself for there are no real heros.

My brother has been seeing the same therapist for a long time. They are very caring.

After visiting Community Behavioral Health Services, I have started recovering quickly.
