Thriveworks bad business practices I logged in to write a review of Thriveworks and was amazed to read another review that captured almost word for word my sentiments. Therapist is awesome, company is terrible. My teenage daughter's appointments were cancelled without warning, and when I immediately called to get support, it was an off-shore call center, and the agent knew nothing and could do nothing. Even though the billing issue was resolved and they actually had access to my credit card the whole time, they refused to put my daughter's appointment back on the schedule, citing some 48 hour company policy. Agent refused to allow me to speak to any other person, saying they were "all in meetings." She was entirely unhelpful and unfriendly. Very frustrating and saddening, as this company is in the business of mental health. I had another experience previously when my daughter had strep throat, and I called to cancel AT LEAST 24 hours in advance, but they have a hard line, non-negotiable 72 hour cancellation policy, so they charged me a ridiculous fee to cancel.

SERVICE SUSPENED for AUTISTIC ADULT I am an AUTISTIC ADULT and Thriveworks CUT MY SERVICE with SHORT AND VAGUE WARNING! When the Thriveworks third party calls from another country, they talk fast and sternly, only acting like a corporation caring about the money only. They apparently FORGOT or DON'T CARE that they are helping/healing severely depressed and anxious individuals with a multitude of mental health diagnoses and traumas. As an Autistic person with PTSD, MDD, and GAD, I didn't appreciate or feel comfortable with their INDIFFERENT ATTITUDE-style customer service. Way to go Thriveworks! This is a solid way to lose patients AND therapists. Luckily, there is a local 24/7 Suicide Support group in my area that I can contact while waiting to receive my disability retirement payment and begin a re-payment plan at the end of this month. Hopefully, I can resume my weekly CBT therapy sessions sooner rather than later. I have an amazing and highly-skilled therapist who is the main reason I am choosing to stay with Thriveworks. I go wherever my therapist goes.

Don’t trust the billing dept!! While I like both therapists I’ve had here (I only switched bc the first went on maternity leave) but the billing department does not know what they’re doing. They make you put a card on file for the monthly membership fee of ~$39. Then they’re supposed to pull money from your account weekly based on your deductible and out-of-pocket limits. I was dumb to assume that I’d hit my deductible when the payments stopped. Well to my surprise they pulled $2276 from my account all in one go after I paid a small $19 fee they charged. The money was pulled on 10/25/23 for appointments I’d had back in March 2023. No one knows why, they can’t refund me everything and to put me on a payment plan (something I wasn’t aware of) I need to give more money. The refund of course won’t go through for 10 days so I have no money in my account until then but they don’t care. Now I was told I had until Wednesday to give the first payment but no that’s a lie as they pulled it today 10/30/23. I’m now deeper in the negative and am done with this place once this payment plan is paid off. NOT TRUSTWORTHY AT ALL. I’m warning you now

WARNING DO NOT USE What we need to do is file a class action suit against Thrive Works. Contact your state Attorney General file complaint for predatory business transactions. Their portal is down for maintainence. There is no area to cancel appointments. When you email support it is ignored and they illegally go into your banking regardless. File complaint with Consumer Protection Bureau. Send copies of your calls, email, screenshot of failed portal. Lastly, let your insurance co know their illegal billing practices. Humana referred my husband. Scheisters put it mildly on these extreme lazy & incompetant co.

They Cancelled My Appointment I called yesterday evening and made an appointment for the next day…probably around 4 pm, I have 5 kids and didn’t sign the consent forms before 7 so the counselor cancelled the session. I thought it was very unprofessional. I was up at 4 am thinking I still had this appointment, excited to finally receive help, only to realize she already cancelled the appointment. I called needed help asap, hence the next day appointment. I wont use Thriveworks.
