Success Stories
 

Sharee, just 11 years old, was hospitalized for threatening suicide, violent outbursts and depression. Her family felt powerless to help and saddened that a young life could be so troubled.

The hospital suggested Henderson Mental Health Center.

Ten weeks later... with caring guidance and therapy...she’s resolved the goals of her treatment plan. By the end of the school year she had joined the swim team and Library Club and stopped making suicidal threats.

Now she’s taking better care of herself and she’s exercising daily. Sharee recognizing her successes told us, “I feel better than I ever have, thank you!”

At Henderson Mental Health Center we strive every day to help young people like Sharee, as well as adults and seniors, to fulfill the promise of a better tomorrow. You can be a part of our success!

"In six short months my world crumbled ...by the grace of God did I end up in the hands of this outstanding and unique facility.”-Kat

She lost her children, friends, family, home, car and job. She began shoplifting, was homeless and hopeless. At Henderson's Cottages in the Pines (a Henderson Mental Health Center residential program for clients) for 1 year, she felt at home and received the support to make her well again. She finished her GED, enrolled in college and is free of drugs. Living independently again, working part-time and with a car, she fondly recalls her time at the Cottages, especially the peacefulness of working in the community garden.

At Henderson Mental Health Center we strive every day to help people like Kat, as well as other adults and seniors, to fulfill the promise of a better tomorrow. You can be a part of our success!

Elsa believed her husband when he called her worthless and said she was unable to survive without him. Elsa could no longer relate to her five children and began looking for someone to care for them, should she die. Her husband’s abuse became just too much for her. Then Elsa found Henderson Mental Health Center. With individual therapy and medication management under the care of a psychiatrist, Elsa came to understand that she was clinically depressed. Now, six months later, she is free of her abusive relationship and says, “ I have everything to live for, especially my children.” Her children admire her courage and are happy to have their mother back.

At Henderson Mental Health Center we strive every day to bring happiness back to people’s lives like Elsa. Be a part of our success!

When Robert Allard recently toured one of Henderson’s foster homes, he knew immediately he could make a lasting contribution to improve the quality of life for the boys who call “Charlee House” their home. In a short time, Mr. Allard and a host of other charitable companies decided to construct a new pool. The boys couldn’t be happier.

Thank you everyone for your help and your generosity!
