“I found my way to Metro Behavioral Health during the most difficult period of my life. How lucky I was. Prior to, I had cycled through several counselors over several years without much, if any, improvement. MBHA practitioners were and are dramatically different from other mental health professionals. It feels comfortable, familial, and alive as opposed to rigid, diagnostic, and stale as is commonplace in the industry. MBHA is unlike any other counseling service I have ever met and I can say, without hyperbole, they gave me my life back.”
“When my daughter developed a serious eating disorder I was terrified as I watched her suffer and understood the potential consequences. MBHA was the only place we found that was able to effectively treat her. Jennie built a team of professionals around us and took the time, effort and energy to make sure they operated as a team. My daughter is an adult now and a happy, loving mother. I will be eternally grateful for the difference MBHA made in her life and ours.”

“My 14-year old daughter became compulsive about calorie counting and body image. An innocuous “diet” to lose ten pounds evolved unexpectedly into a disordered mindset regarding food and a drastic weight loss of 30 pounds. MBHA stepped in compassionately and professionally, and they immediately understood my child’s struggle. MBHA was available 24/7 to guide both me, my husband, and my child about the right steps to take. We were all amazed at their wisdom and optimism.”

“I just got married! It was the best weekend of my life – and I’m so happy. What stuck out to me the most leading up to this wedding, was the absence of the urge to diet. And my god was it so freeing. I had my evening dessert every night leading up to my wedding – guilt free. Socialized with friends and family in restaurants and bars leading up to the wedding- and allowed myself to enjoy myself and my guests and batted away any low but present thoughts about what I should eat. As usual – this is all possible because of our years of work together and I’ll always be grateful.”
“After decades of conventional therapy (counseling, on-the-couch analysis, and psychotherapy), I landed at MBHA. Through the various offerings MBHA guides me to integrate past modalities with cognitive behavioral approaches that ultimately result in what all therapy is meant to do: help me to make sense of my life and to experience truly BEING in my life with all that it entails.”
