“A Path To Hope helped me to find the resources out there for my struggling teen. Before learning about APTH, I was cold calling therapists and googling different types of therapies. However, once I learned of their resource pages and support groups, I felt more equipped to find the right help for my daughter.”

“Center for Families saved our family. My daughter had a plan to end her life and we found ourselves in the emergency department for the third time in six months, hopeless. We had become all-too-familiar with the process of being referred to another mental health program that would be a temporary fix. Center for Families was unlike any of my daughter’s previous placements. Upon entering the building you could truly feel the love. They represent what this Love Award is all about. While at CFF, my daughter began to open up and communicate more about what was bothering her, and as a family we were included in sessions so that we could all heal together. My daughter was able to return to school and excelled in her academics. Two years ago my daughter was unable to get out of bed and next year she will be attending college to study psychology and become a therapist to help teens. Our family is extremely grateful for the amazing staff at CFF.”

“The counselors at Choosing Change are amazing! I’ve worked in individual therapy with Miriah Rutledge, the practice founder, and with Shelley Snapp for prolonged exposure therapy. Choosing Change now offers nutrition help, group therapy support targeted at various needs, and much more. They see children, adults, families, and couples.”

“I have had several families who come to my school use Embark either before they enrolled with us, or afterwards. It is consistent, thorough, and incredibly individualized care. I’m very impressed with how much they help my students.”

“I cannot say enough good things about this practice. Teen mental health has been through it with the pandemic, many world crises, and the impact of social media, and most counselors have long waiting lists. Growth Minded LLC has assembled an amazing team of excellent therapists who, even though they have hefty patient loads, never make scheduling a problem. They are kind, deeply competent, and have been a real blessing to my teenage daughters. I could not be more of a fan!”

“Halcyon Therapy has been such an important and impactful part of my life. Melissa is such an incredible resource for all things motherhood, mental health, and the in-between. Her outlook and help managing through some of my hardest times really pushed me forward, and I would not be who and where I am today without her support. Melissa goes beyond the scope of a therapist, offering ideas and tips for things outside of our sessions. I am so grateful to Halcyon Therapy!”

“I have seen a huge improvement in the way my daughter communicates, manages her emotions, and behaves since she started her weekly sessions. I am so grateful to see such a positive impact with her and within a short period of time. Tried other solutions and none worked. Thankful for Handspring services helping our family.”

“Dr. MacIntyre is excellent at building rapport with adolescents and their parents. She’s diligent in finding the best combination of meds to achieve a stable and consistent result for her patients. This has been especially important for one of our children who has ADHD, ED, PTSD, and a suspected personality disorder. Our child is now the most stable they’ve been in years, thanks to Dr. MacIntyre and their therapist.”

“Rebecca Livingston at Main Line Creative Counseling is a dedicated LPC. She has a natural warmth and energy. Her in-person therapy space is inviting, but she offers virtual options, as well. She is masterful at using art therapy, play therapy, and counseling as a way to connect and bring awareness, growth and new skills.”

“A session with Dahlia always gave our family an opportunity to connect with each other. She facilitated creative activities like drawing, writing, or movement as another modality for communication. Dahlia built trust in individual sessions with our daughter, and provided additional support and problem-solving in phone calls with me. We are grateful for our sessions with her.”

“Nicole beautifully and warmly creates a safe space for women to share, question and heal during their motherhood journey. She personally knows the difficult experiences that can take place in motherhood. This understanding provides a compassionate prospective that allows her to authentically meet you where you are. She also shows empathy to her patients, as she knows the anxious anticipation of a mom-to-be, the sudden change of a new role as a mom, or the everyday load that a mom feels. Nicole truly wants to walk by your side and help.”

“My son has been coming here for therapy for a few years. The staff here are AMAZING and very responsive. I highly recommend them if you would like to have your child (young or old) evaluated or want to initiate psychotherapy. They have tremendously helped us navigate through difficult family dynamics. I cannot say enough for how much Lauren helped my son!”

– Kelsi P.

“Everything about our time with Emily has been pleasant, wonderful, and so helpful. The whole office is calming and her room is perfect for kids. She genuinely spends time getting to know the child and has helped us so much. Our son looks forward to going to see her.”

– Kate S.

“Sarah is an absolute gem of a therapist! She is clinically strong and really knows her stuff. But what truly sets Sarah’s practice apart is just how much she cares, and how much she clearly loves her work with clients. Clients feel supported and truly seen and heard. We are so fortunate to have her practice in our community!”
