I had a few sessions with this person during which time she basically just listened and didn't really offer any support, care or advice. She cancelled 3 sessions in a row, and a couple other times outside of that series over a 3 month.period, but charged me $75 when I missed one session and then stopped replying to me when I was contesting it.

I told her I was concerned about the number of cancellations because I was experiencing immediate issues with my mental health and she just straight up told me she couldn't help me and to go elsewhere.

As a therapist, I feel like you should be sensitive, caring, and accepting towards your clients. That's literally your entire job. You should not just abandon them in their time of need without any good reason and then stop replying to them. I went to therapy to help grow, and honestly this person and every other therapist i've had in NY have just made me feel worse, and distrusting of the entire industry.

Please do not go to this therapist, she will not help you, and will abandon you whenever it is convenient for her.

One star is so generous. I’m so disappointed. I really wasted my time. The trouble of getting my spouse to go, waste of time and waste of money. Regardless of the things she posted about her capabilities and expertise. She initiated nothing. She had to be reacquainted with my situation each week but no activities. No program of dealing with my spouse’s borderline personality disorder, my spouse’ heavy drinking, Impulsive and often dangerous behaviors, such as spending sprees, outside of the marriage during the marriage, Gaslighting, Lack of Object Constancy In BPD. Selective Amnesia, False Accusations and Dissociative Memories. This Kazue had no detailed plan for me. She had nothing at all. I even suggested to her some ideas. Problem identifying activities. I’d never had a therapist before so I put my trust ihm1900@aol.comn her . I wanted her help.

No plan on how to help me or my spouse with our relationship. I don’t think she cared for our problem. I was going through a lot at the time . It was tearing me up with acid reflux and other things. I think the money she bilked was her only focus. She got her cash from us then a whopping payout from our insurance. I have nothing to show for it except anguish. A bad taste in my mouth for her types in her profession. Jm1900@ail.com
On a side note..
Her revealing clothes were exceedingly distracting and issues with dress or skirt tucked often enough in wedgey . So much going on and not in a good way at all. I regret wasting my efforts , money and time with Kazue Block. I wouldn’t recommend her to my friends.

She was awful. She was abusive, rude and disrespectful. She was always 10-15 mints late for the appointment. She made insensitive comment during the session to me. When I pointed out about her mistake, she snapped and started attacking me. She said to me that “You are a bad and sick person!! You will have a proble !!” The whole experience traumatized me. She was like a monster. I would never recommend this social worker to anyone. Stay away from her.

Usually therapists leave the benefit of the doubt to you as the patient/client to decide whether to work with them, but with Kazue could see initially that she was the one who wasn't sure. Her practice consists primarily of Japanese, which I'm not, but she quickly concluded based on the way she asks questions why I wanted to see her and that's her greatest strengths: compassion and listening.

She is open to seeing anyone, but highlight this point to emphasize she cares that you find the right fit. She's an expert on intercultural relationships and has a particular interest in dreams. I was skeptical on the dreams matter until I shared a few, so, do share those with her when something's weighing on you. Incredibly gracious, competent and nice person. She's in a terrific neighborhood in great building as well.

Last, she is proactive about evaluations, so you know how she feels you're progressing, have gotten better and of course, pointing out where you're facing challenges.

I definitely recommend her.

Kazue is the best therapist someone could go to. She is so kind and attentive to me. I am feeling much better since I have been seeing her. She is very empathetic and motivates me to get better. Her office has healing powers. She explained all the benefits of my treatment options. I have recommended a number of people to Kazue and they all leave satisfied with their visit each and every time.
