Vantaggi
I guess salary and benefits. Though according to what he now claims he pays, I was paid considerably less at my final salary than what I should have been making to start, so make what you will of that.
Svantaggi
I completely concur with the other reviews who correctly identify Tribeca Therapy as a toxic workplace. I’m refraining from sharing the most damaging examples due to my own fears around the non disparagement clause another former employee helpfully quoted in their review. The only guiding principles at Tribeca Therapy are the fragile ego, black and white thinking, and mercurial moods of the owner. It becomes clear over time at Tribeca that advancement is not based on client retention, skill development, or the ability to generate referrals. It is instead based on one’s willingness to engage in a cult like reverence for the owner. He creates a warped world within the practice where he constantly categorizes all therapy as “good” or “bad.” He of course concludes that under his purview “good therapy” occurs and most anyone outside the practice only conducts “bad therapy.” He spreads damaging and laughably inaccurate ideas such as all therapists who want to operate in solo practice are doing so to hide from accountability in their work. He wants complete control over the intellectual environment, so during my tenure he became a CEU provider so that all employees would simply rely on him and his “training,” and not engage in outside methodology. I could continue with examples of dysfunctional, unethical behavior, but there is simply too much ground to cover in one review.
