TriCare should not be paying this guy. He hurts soldiers! After 1 appointment there was concern about the taunting/ridiculing tone that the "Dr" used. It is now apparent after less than a full second session that this person values asserting their dominate alpha personality and agenda over the patient despite a lack of theraputic benefit to the individual. Specifically he was mean, unprofessional and insulted the client for their service in the armed forces and the lingering effects (PTSD). I strongly recommend seeking mental help from someone who has a more professional attitude and is interested
