Reviews of Still Waters Counseling (Psychologist)

Ash E

I called to make an appointment and was told I could not. They told me they could put me on a waiting list. Ridiculous way to run a mental health facility.

Maxwell Lazaroff

Reliable staff, good location. I saw Ron Hindbaugh for about two years. I've had depression and anxiety my entire life. I don't anymore, and have been in good mental health for almost three years using the strategies he taught me. The guy is a true miracle worker.

Being that I am one of those types of men who have always said things like "I don't need to talk to anyone about things" or had believed (and would often go out of his way to try and prove) that he was smarter than any health professional (especially mental health professionals), I hope my review of Still Waters' staff will carry a little extra weight. I don't think that I can say enough good things about Still Waters to truly express how I feel. We (myself and my daughter) have been involved with Still Waters (specifically, Dr Smita Nagpal and Dr Brian Pearson), for several years. Originally we sought counseling, mostly, for dealing with issues and struggles that come with divorce, remarriage and being a new "blended family" We had interviewed several counselors, I felt most were either charlatans or quacks. Slightly put out by our failures we tried "one last place". We actually found Still Waters in the phone book. Lucky us! I never dreamed that I/we would get so much out of any relationship personal or professional. So, without going into too much detail... I (YES ME!!!) felt immediately comfortable with Dr Pearson and quickly I began to trust him, (me saying I trust someone is rare and HUGE). Brian is well educated, I'll call him a well educated common man (that being more of a statement of his style). He comes with no pretense, arrogance or preconceived thoughts, I feel that my relationship with Brian continues to develop as I evolve. Better than just being educated though, he knows how to use what he knows... My daughter has seen Dr. Smita Nagpal for a while. I can't speak for my daughter, but I am sure she would tell you there is no doubt that Smita has made a big difference in her life. I can say she was always eager to see Smita, often asking to schedule appointments early just so she could talk to her. My daughter is now 11. Smita (also extraordinarily well educated and knows her stuff) quickly earned my trust (see relative comment above) and my respect. During the years my daughter has seen Smita I also have benefited greatly from the relationship with Dr Nagpal, both, as a man and as a parent. The problem with writing a review like this is that there is so much you don't get to say, I wish I could write more, but then if the review gets too long no one would read it would they...

We did not end up using this counseling service because I was CHIDED on a Monday by their administrative assistant for not calling with my husband's insurance information the previous Friday (he got off work late). In addition, they kept calling and asking for our credit card information before we even got to see a counselor. Unprofessional... they obviously care more about money than patients. I can see why their reviews are so poor. We are definitely looking elsewhere.

Stillwater has been a great blessing to me. I first went to Stillwater to help us navigate a family issue. After the family issue was resolved I stayed and Smita Nagpal helped me learn how to compassionately navigate many of the habitual beliefs and negative habits that were my comfort zone. Helping me to not repeat the past but mindfully being able to approach the future. Stillwater has informative public information sessions and I've taken many of the Meditation Workshops run by Smita over a course of 6 weeks and they have been not only fun but provided me a real understanding of why and how to meditate, along with the practice to actually incorporate meditation into my real day to day routine. The Nurtured Heart Parenting Approach run by Bridget Young was frankly beautiful. The care Bridget puts into the class is apparent. That same care is apparent from everyone I've met at Stillwater. Can't recommend enough.

Great experience for me, it helps me a lot.

No problem with the counseling, the billing department is very unprofessional! If you receive a Bill from them double check with your insurance company!!!! The billing department was so quick to blame the counsler, and stating maybe we didn't meet our deductible, after hours on the phone come to find out still water's counseling was billing the insurance under the wrong doctor!! PLEASE double check with your insurance company beforehand!! And still water's if you are reading this no we are not going to be sent to collections by you for your incompetents!! It's sad we had to end our counseling because the billing department couldn't do there job correctly, and the way they tried to handle it was so unprofessional!!
