Life changing! Gary recommended I try Vivitrol for my alcoholism and OMG!! I have not had one craving since I have been on it now going on 2 months!!! I highly highly recommend if you are suffering from alcohol and cannot quit or someone you know, contact fifth street counseling. The shot is 100% free (thanks to a grant fifth street counseling received) even if you are not a client. Do yourself a favor and try it! It truly is a miracle drug! I am finally free and have such a positive happy outlook on life now. Thank you Gary and everyone at fifth street counseling!!!!

Don’t believe all these fake reviews, this place is a scam. I saw all the invoices month after month she paid that social media company to post fake positive reviews on here. If you want the truth about fifth street then check out their yelp reviews. Whatever you do stay away from anything having to do with Kathleen Rhodes business or otherwise. She’s as corrupt as they come and has no understanding of ethics or medicine for that matter...how has this place seriously not been shut down yet?!?!

This place is toxic and run by a crazy fake doctor Rhodes. They don’t return phone calls they make excuses and falsely report to the courts because they are incompetent and don’t have any regard for the families lives and children’s they effectively destroy. All they care about is money which is why dcf contracts them out they are that bad. You will get sicker not better if you trust and Rely on these people

I came to Fifth Street counseling over a year ago & for what it is I genuinely like it. If you are facing problems that make life complicated and would like the help of a professional, you can get that help here. Dr. Rhodes just makes it easy to talk about the issues & get real & honest with yourself so you can work through your problems.

If you have to go to this office please request another location to do your classes if possible. They are so unprofessional Shikara & Judith are the current front desk receptionist . Just because your charge they talk to you any type of way which is not professional . They don’t understand that they maybe dealing with people that have depression, anxiety , stressed or just don’t like to be disrespected. From the tone of how they talk to you on the phone they don’t want to be disrespected as well . Horrible CUSTOMER SERVICE/ Horrible FRONT DESK SKILLS!! they need to upgrade the staff to professional people that can talk to people and need to stop hiring people who don’t have the background work

Good Day to the people in treatment I hope all is well. This is a long journey and it wont be easy however keep positive and learn from the help that is provided. I can only speak about my time with 5th Street Counseling. I want to thank the whole staff, it was a rough start but with the help of the staff it made the process easier. I will like to personally thank the girls in the office for being patient with me and I give thanks and respect to Maggie Dr. Rhoades Bobbie and Bob they were awesome. I pray for everyone whos going through tough times its not permanent. thank you.

My name is Alyse and I’ve been coming to fifth street counseling for a few months, the staff here are amazing! They genuinely care about your sobriety and want to see you succeed and they provide great life skills to keep you on track for when you complete your time here. I mainly always see the women working here and of course my counselor, Kayla, Leslie and Shakira, all of you guys are so special to me and you’re always so nice and very helpful! Maggie, you are like the aunt I wish I had. I look forward to seeing you because you are so understanding with every situation I come to you with and you always remind me that there is going to be a better outcome if I just keep doing good. I love you with my whole heart and I couldn’t thank you enough for all you do for me! I hope you never change because you have such a loving and caring heart and you never judge anyone no matter how bad their situation is! 💜

They help me stay sober. They offer a Vivetrol shot that changed my life. I spoke with Garry and was screened to make sure I was able to receive the shot. They also offered counseling with a very experienced counselor Alan, who was genuine and actually knew what I was going through. Without the shot I would probably be back to square one by now and it’s been 10 months of no desire to use. Thank You Fifth Street Counseling.

I was nervous at the beginning that I would have to speak in front of people but that disappeared because of my counselor Ramona. The whole staff is respectful - but they deal with all kinds of people - and helpful. I completed my counseling and I have a great new outlook on life and with great joy I too can help those that have lost their way. Thank you Ramona and Fifth Street.

I greatly benefited from my 12 one hour sessions last summer. Mr. Robert Scardino was my therapist and he was very helpful, knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend Bob to anyone. They have a great staff, including Gary who got me started on my first day. Good record keeping for my case, which was appreciated. My insurance covered most of the expense and I was surprised how much it helped.

Worst customer service I have ever experience. During this tine of crisis you would think they would be willing to help but is the exact oposite! I have called various reps and no one seems to know anything. I have asked to speak with a supervisor but they don’t have one or not willing to transfer you over to someone who is in charge. All they care about is taking your money and don’t even give you the proper credentials to Join a ZOOM meeting.It is very disappointing!

Dr. Kathleen Rhodes and her staff are very helpful and caring. They worked with me while my insurance was accepted. The center offers group sessions. I had the opportunity to meet others that provided supposed and understanding. You will receive a complete service with support from the staff and everyone involved.

I’ve been in recovery a long time - over 30 years and I can honestly say the staff at 5th. Street has always impressed me with their integrity and professionalism. K. Rhodes PhD. is the director and driving force of the group. She is both empathetic and skilled in assessing one’s issues. I highly recommend 5th. Street to anyone in need of guidance. Bob

The girls are all so nice here! This place is saving my relationship with my family one session at a time. The fundamentals of being a good man to my family comes after building a new core, and thankfully the team at 5th street, girls at the front so courteous and nice, and the Dr shows me a new me that is a good me, a happier me, a helpful man and a great man in general. Without them I would probably not have seen my potential!! Thank you from my family 5th street

Every time I go there the young lady Shakira is always there with a friendly smile to assist. She is very non judgmental and makes coming to this location very comfortable. She is also very patient as well. She is an assist to have. Thank you Shakira... Ten starts if I could.

Review №22

I was sent to this place because I was given a ticket for a minuscule amount of marijuana. I am licensed by the State of Florida to possess Medical Marijuana. The court sent me here to be evaluated. I do not do any other drugs or drink alcohol. The doctor I saw told me in confidence that she was going to call the courts and let them know that I did not have any substance abuse issues. Within 2 hours of my meeting with the doctor, I received a phone call form her office (she conveniently left) and I was told she recommended me for a 26 week substance abuse program. This place is a fraudulent money pit.I am notifying AHCA and other Florida State Agencies about this place. I should have known based upon all of the other reviews. Its 2019 people and your attempting to ruin peoples lives by coating your pockets. For medical reasons I am using an alias to protect my medical rights covered under Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

I needed a place that had Saturday classes in Pompano and this place has them. The staff was very nice and the counselors are very professional. I didnt like to pay every week, but it wasnt that expensive. The classes really helped me and my girlfriends relationship. My lawyer told me to choose this place and she was right. Thanks to my counselors Alan and Ramona.

When u see 5 stars and 1 stars competing,The counselors are juniors, the front desk, dumber than box a rocks. The CLIENTS are court ordered br there. I will video my next encounter with front deskDo not even go with out some sort if armour on. U will be speechless at shocked at how u are treated at the glass window. The ladies, although, maybe their first stop at counseling, are good.I have not been able to get an appt, or have my ins approved for 8 10 months.Its just a game at this point.But, going to a dozen psychs to find the least ignorant, and lots of pills?This not for the meek. Good luck.

Review №48

Very professional counseling center, I can tell that most people that are here are court ordered so there is a lot of bitterness about certain things within the program however I have found that the counselors truly do care about their work and helping you through whatever problems you might have. Would highly recommend Fifth Street for substance abuse issues as well as anger management.

Review №51

I received a list of places to do anger management and required to do 13 weeks. I came into this place not only do they over price your visit based on your income but they add additional class which is unnecessary. Please call around other places before selecting this place. They only want your money and waste your time.

I was pretty mad when I had to attend 5th Street and had to pay every week but my classes were actually very interesting and the staff were always polite and professional to me. I attended classes on Saturdays which was convenient to me and my counselor let me express myself without feeling stupid. My lawyer told me I didnt have to attend, but my Judge said it was good that I went to all of my classes and I got early termination from my probation.

Initially I was upset about the 26 weeks that Dr. Rhodes recommended. Shortly afterwards I was given an additional 26 weeks due to some rule change and then my blood begin to boil. I did not think I needed the help. As time passed, I begin to understand how wrong I was and I also noticed how passionate the counselors and staff were, especially Ramona, about helping me with my behavioral patterns and impulses. I am now more aware of myself and my surroundings. This is a great place for counseling and help. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking assistance with anger management or drug abuse.

I was court-ordered to take anger management classes and was initially skeptical.After research I found 5th Street to be the most affordable. Upon arrival the front desk staff was very friendly and welcoming.I met Ramona and was immediately impressed by her energetic and compassionate demeanor. She always listens and is very knowledgeable about alternative reactions to specific anger situations. Ramona’s sessions have taught me many things.I highly recommend 5th Street Counseling as a path to lead towards happiness and stress management. Ive learned alot here and Ive been applying it to life and find it VERY helpful! Thank you Ramona!
