Dr. Aaron Ketchum, PSY.D

I had been talking with Kaiser for weeks trying to find a person who had sufficient training and experience in stress and PTSD that they would be able to help Other than just giving me a label and pushing medications. After all , my mother suffered and died as a result of inappropriate behavioral healthcare. After I gave him multiple suggestions about how other therapists have provided me CBT and a solid diagnosis for treatment ( I.e. young’s mania self rating scale) the only direction he gave me was this “Every time you go in and show them how agitated you are with psychiatry, you prove the reason why they keep on saying you have manic agitation”. The only reason I don’t Think about injuring myself after this kind of therapy is not only cause I am sane, but also because I know the plan God has for me in spite of this kind of abuse.

Very good at what he does! The first one I’ve ever trusted!

Kaiser tends to understaff behavioural health to the point of violating federal law. But on top of that, their doctors really couldn't care less about outcomes or doing any actual or effective work. Dr. Ketchum is no exception, and lowered the bar for how bad I think therapists can actually be.
