There have been…read moresome bad days as my wife and I watched him spiraling out of control with mental health issues that we simply were not prepared to see. I am not embarrassed to shout out about what we have been through as now I have come to realize just how many of us, neighbors, friends, that person who is in line with us at the food market, on and on are dealing with the sames issues and concerns with our families and extended families. I was referred by a friend to the Utopia Health Center in Greenbelt MD who told me that "They really do Care". No fluff here in saying that after working with the Center and observing the day to day communication and process, I can honestly say "They really do care :)". Thanks Utopia!

I have been to other counselors and this was by far the worst group of counselors, I actually felt that they were dangerous for vulnerable people that really need help because they were so unprofessional and incompetent. The counselor at Bowie Youth & Family Services made my post traumatic stress so much worse. What did I learn from Bowie Youth & Family Services? That I will never waste my time counseling again, and won't recommend them to anybody.

The VA contracted this company to treat me for mental health. I later on needed some paperwork…read morefilled out in regard to my mental health treatment. I was told since I was no longer a client, they couldn't do it. I asked how much would it cost. I was told to provide my insurance information and do some sessions. After a session, I asked about someone filling out the paperwork. They told me to provide them with mental health information that the VA had on me. I informed them, that they didn't had any because they contracted the treatment to them. They told me they couldn't fill out the paperwork because they needed an example of how another health institution filled it out! That's insane to me! Aren't you guys a licensed health provider that provided me treatment? Why can't you guys fill out the paperwork based on the treatment I received? When I asked these questions, JMJ stopped responding to me by email! Very, very unprofessional! They charged my health insurance, then treated me like I was nothing! This was in November 2024. Til this day, they never responded back to me! You would think a company in the business of helping people with mental health issues wouldn't cause pain by ignoring a patient! They are horrible!

Then, I continuously asked if an intake was a consultation (free) and if it would be charged, and there was no answer. I then canceled any visits to going forward only to find out that they charged me for a 30-minute review of the 7 pages I previously answered!

This process has triggered so many red flags! Do better! Be better! Stay better!

I am a past client of Dr. Sloan's and would like to offer up some positive input regarding my…read moreexperience. I was involved in a 17-year marriage that had been in trouble for many, many years by the time I and my former spouse began counseling with Dr. Sloan. We had all sorts of issues and - long story short - the marriage was simply not working out on almost every level. Despite Dr. Sloan's dedicated efforts to assist us in attempting to work to some resolution, it became apparent that therapy was not going to keep the marriage together. At this point, I engaged Dr. Sloan on an individual level, as I had realized that I needed to leave the marriage for the ultimate good of all involved - however was having an extremely difficult time moving ahead with what would be a dramatic, painful, uprooting, and life-changing decision. During four months of intense one-on-one sessions with Dr. Sloan, I was able to come to some very cathartic conclusions regarding both HOW I had ended up where I was in my life at that time, and perhaps more importantly WHY I was completely paralyzed and unable to act upon several excruciatingly difficult but necessary decisions I needed to make in order to move my life in the direction it needed to go...and for me to become the person I so desperately wanted and needed to be. I would like to note that I was pretty much in anxiety attack mode at this particular point in time, due to the slow but steady build-up of unhappiness and dissatisfaction in my life over many years, and the sense that I was completely trapped and could not possibly muster the wherewithal to change my situation. I'm a very smart and confident man at my core, but felt helpless - maybe "hapless" is a more accurate word - when faced with decisions that would forever change everything I had come to know in my adult life to that point. There was no lower time in my life, and I was terrified...yet silently determined to get myself to the right outcome - whatever that might be. Dr. Sloan patiently, skillfully, and compassionately helped me begin to understand some of the key reasons why I felt marooned in my existence at that time, and while not necessarily steering me in any specific direction, she somehow managed to allow me to tap into my own potential to shape my future from that point forward. Most of all, Dr. Sloan gave me the wherewithal to break through what had pretty much become a crippling forcefield of inaction that had stalled me in a no-man's land for probably 10 years or more. Once I was able to finally harness the ability to do what I needed to do for myself, the flood gates opened and since then, life has taken several very dramatic turns - all for the best. Today, five years later, I am remarried and in an extremely happy, healthy, comfortable relationship - and have become the father I have always wanted to be to my 8-year-old son. I have a delightful wife and son, a delightful life, and I am (hate to use this word but I will anyway) authentically happy. Without Dr. Sloan's help, I very much doubt that I would have been able to get to where I am today. Let me conclude by saying that I was right up there at the top of the list of people who come into therapy relationships of this type with a healthy amount of skepticism, to say the least. I have never been a believer in blaming one's problems on one's childhood, or thinking that somehow all the answers to our adult problems can be found in childhood experiences. While I still feel that way in many respects to this day, I would encourage anyone going through serious issues in their lives to simply be open to any and all explorations that might provide some insights into exactly who you are and why you are. There is some incredible power in that discovery, and while the process was not always clear to me - I am sitting here today counting my blessings daily because I allowed myself to be open to a process of true self-discovery. It is never, ever too late to reclaim your life...and while I will be the first one to give myself the credit for changing my life for the better, I owe Dr. Sloan a tremendous debt of gratitude for finally turning the light on in what was a pitch-black room for me for so long.

Your receptionist did indeed take my credit card information and though I called back on three different occasions, I never heard back from you all which is why I came onto Yelp.com and wrote a review. In the future, I hope it won't take a negative review on a public forum for you all to get back to a customer. I hope this was a one time offense and that things are much improved with your company since my experience last November. But that's neither here nor there. I've since taken my business elsewhere and if any one asks my opinion of your company, I will be forthright and honest about my experience.
