Telling a New Mental Health Story:

Share, Reconnect, Renew - Adolescent PHP and IOP Program Patient Reflection

In their own words, a Compass Health Center adolescent patient shares their transformative journey:

 

“When I was in a really painful place and feeling low, Compass Health Center provided me with a sense of immediate comfort. The group therapists were absolutely amazing; I felt safe and supported, and that I was able to share whatever I needed to release. I was nervous at first because I felt like it would be everything I've already learned in outpatient therapy, but it wasn't...it was so much more. I realized that I wasn't alone, that many others faced similar struggles, and that I was part of a supportive community. You never know what someone may be going through, and I believe learning this at Compass has made me a better person. My team was extremely kind and understanding. Compass changed my life."

Compass Health Center supports adolescents (ages 12-18), both in-person and virtually, offering specialized programs in:

  • Anxiety, Depression, and other Mood Disorders
