He is "obnoxious"!.....It's beyond me how he even became a "therapist".....

I was a patient of Michael Fischmans for a significant amount of time, as was my husband. He was helpful in the beginning, but slowly I began dreading each appointment, root canal would have been a better option. He is inappropriate. Having food delivered and eating during sessions. Falling asleep during sessions and blaming the patient for this. Manipulating, controlling and disparaging patients to stay in treatment with him. I attended individual and group therapy. Members of my group would try to end treatemnt, Mr. Fishcman would manipulate the group to side with him, this made it difficult to leave and drag on the discussion for leaving for months. Upon my decision to end treatment, he was very angry. The decision was made and after 3 months of discussions, my last session was a group session. I said my good byes with the members, Mr Fischman would not look my way, he gave me the silent treatment, this went on for 90 minutes. During all my years of treatment, Mr. Fischman did not find any patient ready to leave treatment. Bad guy, motivated by money.
