In the middle of a crisis

When a devastating event happens in your life it is easy to feel isolated and hopeless.

Our family found Bert Nash at a time when we were smack-dab in the middle of a crisis and because of the support and therapy we received, we can look back and see several areas that changed our lives.

When you have a child that is intent on harming themselves, and you don’t know why, it is very helpful to know that there are so many kind and talented people that make up Bert Nash who makes it easy to find the right fit for your crisis.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), led by Kristen Runk and her team, was so important for us to use as a baseline for healing. We still use the principles on a daily basis.

DBT allowed us to use the individual therapy sessions with Julie Nelson more effectively. One of the things that made a difference was that all therapists were kind and respectful and at the same time would be firm in making us be responsible for the words and actions we used in our quest for recovery.

The many fine folks at Bert Nash have their fingerprints on the successful outcomes we have found.

The parent support group meetings and individual sessions with Charlotte Passoni taught us how to cope and hope. It was so helpful to know that others are going through their own crisis and are using the resources you provide.

Bert Nash is such a valuable jewel for our community that it is important to tell others about how they can find hope and health within the Bert Nash community.

Mere words cannot express how our family has benefited from the heroes at Bert Nash. – Andy Sherman
