Reviews of Dr. Alana K. Matwychuk, Truro Clinical Psychologist & Psychiatric Assoc. (Psychiatrist)

I went to this doctor when I was 15. She had me take an online assessment which she used to determine that I "would never be a leader in a group" and would essentially always let people take the lead instead of voicing my opinion. That is just one thing that stood out from these sessions. I honestly felt WORSE after going to her. I am here to tell you that she is full of s*** and I made a point in my life to become an outspoken person who is more than capable of leading and making decisions. I don't need a degree (she talked about her own education and degree about plenty during sessions) to tell you she is plain wrong. Save your money, time, and mental health by avoiding this lady. She should not be in practice.

Left with more baggage then when I arrived. Called my parents lazy because they retired after 28yrs of working and were pensioned off. Said my brother and sister only work to afford nice things. Im sorry..but why else would someone wake up and go to work everyday if it wasnt to have a home and vehicle and pay bills. Ive yet to hear of someone going to work because it was fun and they just wanted to and money had nothing to do with it. Told me she knew by looking in my eyes when we shook hands that I was a hostile person?? Said my long term partner isnt for me just because he didnt want to take me horseback riding one day. I cant make this stuff up. She talked more about herself over the 2 hours and i left feeling like I paid 380$ to be her psychologist. I went to her on my own. I didnt go through a family dr. I just said hey I may benefit a bit by going to talk to someone so lets give this a try. Biggest mistake ever. Id rather sit home and cry over my losses and personal/work life than go sit in that horrendous green office and be talked down to and not feel supported. Do yourself a favor and avoid this lady. Im posting this to help you not make the same mistake I did.

This lady is belittling, and unsupportive. Would like to know why she is still practicing and taking new clients if she is not willing to help them...this one just in for the money
