A warning to all who would dare to do business with PH Balance Behavioral and Brandon Perea-Hickam:

“Doctor” Brandon on first appearances seems to be a jolly and [overly] charming individual who lays on compliments thick, like a layer of tar, in preparation for later where he decides to feather you for all the world to see. Someone who is trying desperately to pull the wool over your eyes by distracting you with all the wonderful lies he thinks you would want to hear. Singing praises and compliments over and over at every passing opportunity. A warning that he is not who he appears to be, and underneath his tightly weaved facade is the most vile abuser in the most extreme. He is deceitful, lying, slanderous, and conniving.

He will pretend to be your friend when it looks to gain him the most, and will turn on you when it no longer suits his fancy, or if you try to stand up for yourself against his abuse. He will cheat, lie, and spread slanderous rumors about you to your coworkers and attempt to pit you against one another instead of him. He knows his craft well as he is a magician who uses slight of hand and misdirection to hide the elephant in the room. He may even trick you into thinking that you were the problem, though in reality he is attempting to manipulate your own thoughts and feelings and turn them against you.

He will skirt the very edge of the law in order to cheat you out of the money he owes you, all the while touting how moral he is and that he has done nothing wrong. Contrary to what he wants the world to believe, he is not a saint trying to save the world and stand up for injustice. Instead he is a sad little king on a sad little hill. A person of no consequence. A boy who never learned wrong from right, a boy who still desperately clings to gaining approval through prestige and a never ending multitude of college degrees.

A boy who is very sad inside and puts on his mask hoping you won’t see the ever widening cracks and his weakness which is his very fragile self-esteem, of which he recites over and over “I am the best”, “I am the greatest”. All while hoping that someday he will believe it himself, though sadly he never will.

The average person might describe him as a Narcissistic Sociopath, and you will find that he checks every box for that diagnosis. According to the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders), the two that fit under those terms are Antisocial Personality Disorder 301.7 (F60.2) and Narcissistic Personality Disorder 301.81 (F60.81), both of which ring eerily familiar and true. Proceed at your own peril.

They may constantly fish for compliments, often with great charm. Their sense of entitlement, and lack of sensitivity may result in exploitation of others. These individuals may expect great dedication from others and may overwork them without regard for the impact on their lives. They tend to discuss things in inappropriate and lengthy detail. Although they may not show it outwardly, criticism may haunt these individuals and may leave them feeling humiliated, degraded, hollow, and empty. They may react with disdain, rage, or defiant counterattack.

Paranoid personality disorders may be associated with narcissistic personality disorder.
