“Before starting therapy, I thought seeking help was a sign of weakness, and that I could deal with my demons and trauma on my own. Turns out, I couldn’t. Going into therapy was the single most important and beneficial thing I have ever done for myself. My therapist put me at ease and allowed me to be my true self. She helped me sort out my trauma in a way that worked for me, and allowed me to no longer feel paralyzed by my past. My only regret is waiting as long as I did to finally take that big leap to seek out counseling.”

“I have been a client at NSMHS for several years. The atmosphere is welcoming and non intimidating. My therapist is caring and kind. I feel comfortable being myself, and talking about hard experiences. She is able to pinpoint different approaches to our sessions when needed. I don’t feel like just a “patient”, I feel like a person getting the help I need and deserve. I would, and have, recommend NSMHS to any one needing a safe space to talk.”

“I’ve been to many therapists who have given me insight into my mind, but I never had the tools to put it into practice until I started going to therapy at North Shore Mental Health. My therapist has helped me process trauma I didn’t realize I was carrying while also teaching me about the neuroscience and somatic aspects of mental health. My relationships with my partner, friends, family, and (perhaps most importantly) myself have all become significantly stronger since I became a client at this practice.”
