The Harvard Mental Health Letter is a great publication which consistently features clear, useful, timely, and interesting articles on topics that I care about. Thank you, and keep doing what you're doing! E.M, Newton, MA

I AM AN ADDICTION COUNSELOR AND RECOVERING ADDICT. YOUR INFO MAKES ME LOOK SMART. THANK YOU, GOOD WORK. D.F.L., CALIFORNIA

I am a mental health professional (MFT in CA), and use the articles frequently for case formulation and client education. Thank you for providing this wonderful resource. CWO, Palo Alto, CA

I wish the Harvard Mental Health Letter were longer than just 8 pages. The subscription is very pricey compared to other sources of information, such as magazines and the like. One thing I do like, though, is that the sources used for the article are clearly shown. I've looked up several of the sources just to learn some more about the topic discussed. Thanks! DRD, Royal Oak, Michigan

I feel more educated each time I read an article from the Harvard Mental Health Letter. I feel very fortunate to be able to have access to so many wonderful researched articles. When reading an article from Harvard, I feel as if I were pursuing my doctorate studies at Harvard without leaving my house. It is a wonderful feeling.
