Therapist, Older Adult Services
About the Organization
Established in 1920, Greater Nashua Mental Health has as its mission: empowering individuals to lead full and satisfying lives through treatment and support. Our agency provides comprehensive, evidence-based behavioral health services for individuals with mental health and/or substance misuse disorders. We offer a wide array of services in office and community settings, serving adults and children. As the State-designated Community Mental Health Center for Southern Hillsborough County, we serve everyone who walks in our doors, and no one is ever turned away due to the inability to pay for services. Without our agency, many of the most vulnerable members of our community would not have access to critically needed behavioral health care. We believe that by respecting people as they are, we can help them to become all that they wish to be.
