I am Worse Off than when I started 14 years ago.



It's possible that my TSINY ordeal was the immediate result of my asking for a Review of the approach my Therapist had taken with my issues.
The trouble(s) began with a Reduction by Half of my Adderall medication and worsened when my therapist took an unannounced 3 month leave as my therapist or as I saw it, an abandonment.

Eli Lusterman, my Therapist of 14 years Takes 3 month leave with no explanation and states I will be talking to another Therapist. 2 hours later I find out I’ll be talking to an Intern. I send an anxiety ridden email to Eli and the return message is: Dear Patient, If you have any questions talk to Rebecca Carcana (nurse practitioner).  Multiple anxiety emails after that with no response, but were admittedly Read by my therapist.  I asked Rebecca Carcana (Nurse Practitioner) about Eli’s abandonment What is going on? I’ll be talking to an Intern? What is the issue with Eli? Rebecca replies “You can ask him when he returns” Rebecca “We must stop rehashing this”.



Angella Gordon was brought on by Eli Lusterman to assist me with things.
I sent Eli Lusterman a partial biography about myself ending in 2006 when it was written.
The reason was for Eli to have as much background info about me for my therapy.
During a call with Angella Gordon I was upset that Eli was replaced by an Intern
& Angella replied “Yeah, we didn’t handle that very well” (which implied Angella was in the decision making process of who would replace Eli).
At the end of the call with Angella Gordon she asked me “The stuff you sent Eli, did you make that up”, which bothered me & when asked about it the day after Angella says she never said that. When I told her that the conversation was recorded she stopped all communication with me.

Rebecca Carcana (Nurse Practitioner) and Elizabeth Sillick (Director at
TSINY) avoided Requests to help clear this up, instead saying “You have
to work it out with Angella”.
Elizabeth Sillick  (Director at TSINY) told me that she has the
authority to assign anyone to my case and give them access to my records
Including the biography I sent Eli. She stated that while she is the
Director at TSINY, she has no control over Angella Gordon and couldn’t
assist me.
