Erica W. Blystone, LCSW - Chapel Hill, North Carolina

Betsy Bledsoe

I worked with Ms. Blystone when she was with Lepage and Associates. She served as a parenting coordinator. After ending services after one year I posted a review where I stated that the services I received were not trauma informed. When I originally posted a negative review after ending services prior to the final report being given to the court I was contacted by the owner of Lepage who stated she would report my review to the court because it was not in the spirit of parent coordination work if I did not agree to take it down. I took the review down for fear that they would report negatively. Ms. Blystone reported the negative review to the court and included false information that I refusal to pay my bill. My credit card that was on file was at its limit because the charges were so extensive and it was declined. I made arrangements and paid my bill in full and never refused to pay my bill. In addition to the services she provided were NOT being trauma informed, this was was very disappointing. Because it is critical for survivors of trauma to receive trauma informed care and services, I would suggest any survivor of intimate partner violence speak with the advocates at the Compass Center for Women and Families in Chapel Hill to get recommendations on professionals who understand the nature of intimate partner violence and how trauma impacts survivors.
