    Current Alerts For This Business

    Misuse of BBB Name and/or Logo:

    On 1/25/2024, 2/19/2024 and 2/29/2024 the Better Business Bureau contacted Rock River Valley Mental Health, LLC requesting for the removal of BBB Accredited Business Torch logos from their website. Rock River Valley Mental Health, LLC  is not an accredited business. Therefore, this business is currently violating the BBB's name and logo policy and has falsely stated BBB accreditation or referenced BBB's name in an unauthorized manner, despite BBB's efforts to get the business to cease using BBB's trademark. This use of BBB's trademark constitutes trademark infringement and is a violation of trademark rights of the International Association of Better Business Bureaus.  

    This matter has been referred to the International Association of Better Business Bureaus (IABBB) and the Illinois Attorney General's office for further action.

      Status:
      Answered
      We went to see ************************************* at Rock River Valley Mental Health to see about her therapy services for my daughter. My daughter had to fill out an evaluation form beforeDr. ********************************* would have a therapy session with her becasue she needed to come up with a diagnosis after readying my daughters evaluation. We could never fill out the evaluation, ************************************* had an extremely noisy office and it wasn't the calm place my daughter thought she was getting for mental health services. ************************************* has multiple birds in her office and they constantly chirp - constantly. We asked ************************************* three times to be moved to an area less noisy and each time ************************************* replied with, well teenagers are fine at tuning out other noises and your daughter will be fine to have a session with me when she is done filling out the form. We could never fill out the form, after the third time we asked for another location of her office and she said no we had to leave. And now ************************************* is billing me and threatening to send me to collections if I do not pay her $120 for the therapeutic diagnosis she had with my daughter. The session was never done, we left before finishing the evaluation form. I called ************************************* to tell her this and she hung up on me. She has a very noisy office and it wasn't good for my stressed daughter and we had to leave. I am worried about going to collections as I have told her I dispute this charge because her services were never performed. She just keeps sending me more bills for services that were never performed.
