Supporting Mental Health Together
We are a free mental health support group serving the Central Pennsylvania area, meeting every Monday evening and Thursday afternoon in New Cumberland, PA. Join us for community and understanding.
Community and Understanding
Free Support for All
Our group provides a safe space for individuals to share their experiences and receive support. We believe in the power of community to foster healing and resilience in mental health journeys.
How We Can Help You
Whether you are suffering through depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, personality disorders, ADHD or any of a thousand other mental health diagnoses, we can help. Maybe you're just going through a rough time and haven't been diagnosed. Maybe it's a breakup or divorce, death in the family, financial troubles or a misbehaving child. We provide a free, safe, welcoming place where you can unburden and know that you are not alone.
It's been said that by helping others, we help ourselves. We agree! We feel that group support is one of the most effective ways to achieve an improved outlook on life. You never know when someone is going to say something that completely changes the way you look at things.
Reaching and maintaining good mental health isn't a journey. It's a fight. It's a battle we must wage every single day. As Rocky Balboa said, "It ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." You can do this, and we can help.
What We Don't Do
Judge. Lecture. Diagnose. Gossip. We're not professional therapists, and we have no business telling you what to do, how to feel, or what medications to take. We don't pass judgment on each other. We don't talk about group issues outside the group. We don't breach confidentiality. This is a safe space.
What We Do
We share. We listen. We empathize. We support. If we don't understand completely, we come as close to it as anyone you'll meet. We build each other up. Sometimes we talk about issues related to mental health and the way it is perceived by the general public. More than anything else, we are here for each other.
