NuLife has been a tremendous part of my recovery journey. The combination of group therapy,…read morepsychiatric care, and TMS treatment provided me with the support and tools I needed during one of the most difficult period of my life. What makes this program special is the sense of community. The daily check-ins and group discussions offer honest peer feedback, different perspectives, and plenty of opportunities for growth. I've made meaningful connections with my peers, and those relationships have been just as valuable as the clinical treatment itself. Rebecca is an exceptional clinician and leader whose compassion, insight, and ability to connect with clients have had a lasting impact on me. Dr. Azi has also been incredibly supportive throughout my treatment. The team genuinely cares about their clients and creates an environment where people can do the hard work of recovery while still finding moments to laugh. As the unofficial comic relief of the group, I've learned that healing and humor can coexist. In fact, one of my favorite contributions to the program was a phrase that seems to have stuck: "Do it afraid." Recovery isn't about waiting until you're fearless--it's about moving forward anyway. NuLife helped me do exactly that. I'm incredibly grateful for my experience at NuLife and would highly recommend the program to anyone seeking support for their mental health or recovery. THE END

Some staff are amazing, however, Rebecca is awful and very rude to everybody. She expects people to act as though this is a school and we are not supposed to have our own feelings, emotions, lives, or thoughts. The curriculum is good, however they constantly are going off topic. The care could be amazing if they knew how to manage a room and keep everybody going in a progressive direction. However, they do not. My mental health is going backwards due to these awful people.

My PCP is out of Boston but was able to find Patti Piecewicz In Auburn, MA. Her amazing reputation precedes her. My PCP have been looking for Pelvic Floor PT for Men for 2 years! Of course, Like all pelvic floor PT's, she does pelvic floor PT for women as well. She is friendly, makes you feel comfortable and is really good at what she does! I've been seeing her for months after decades of extreme chronic pain. Slowly working through the layers of pain. Every time I leave I feel like a new person. I highly recommend her for anyone who has pelvic floor PT issues!

In May 2009, Bethany B wrote:…read more The eval went well, the first visit was helpful and then it went down hill. When I arrived for my third visit, I was left in the waiting room for almost 20 minutes. When I was finally retrieved the therapist was irate that I hadn't been started on my heating packs yet. That lasted for most of my visit -- not very relaxing. The visit went way over my 1/2 hour slotted time and I left sore. Not sore but helped, just sore and sad. Oct. 2009 - from Rita: This review happened to catch my eye as I was looking for something else. I am sorry that your experience at SCPT turned out to be far less than satisfactory and can appreciate the frustrations and even inconvenience not keeping to schedule can pose. I decided to join Yelp so I could provide remarks about the care I received at SCPT, as someone who has used this facility for about 6 months straight in 2007 and a few months during 2009. I have also continued in their After-care pgm. (mainly rehab type pool where each of us is given our own exercises based on our specific problems - this is an option, out-of-pocket after P/T runs out). This is a really big plus for me or anyone who needs warm water pool for exercising as there are few to be found. I think if a therapist or therapy is not going too well, it is still worth trying to address the problem with him or her. Another suggestion would be to ask to be assigned to someone else as there are differences between them. By using SCPT for the past 24 mos., I have noticed that they will occasionally run into staffing issues and not each and every visit had run as smoothly as I would have liked. Another important point is that P/T often takes 7-8 sessions before a difference can be felt and yes, I have had problems which made me hurt more first, but as a joint or limb was loosened up or the impingement was released, I started to feel the benefits. It takes time to see results from P/T (no matter where one goes) and also hard work on the patient's part. There were times I wanted to throw in the towel, but I didn't. However, by having used another P/T facility in Auburn as well as trying out P/T at UMass Rehab (on Rt. 9), I found most of the therapists at SCPT to be very dedicated, skilled and hard-working. They do have a unique set-up where the treatment tables are all open and therapists work on patients side by side, often coordinating two patients at a time. And I will admit this took some getting used to, but after a while I no longer noticed who was on table next to me or out on the floor doing exercises. In fact, I'd say this is one key aspect of SCPT which I think folks need to know ahead of time so not to be surprised if/when you start getting therapy there. Most of the therapists are quite skilled and most have gone to learn new techniques or use new tools. But there is a difference between therapists - some will be more aggressive or passive in their style and some will be most attentive and caring. I have a few favorite ones who spent all the time they could to complete a treatment - so going beyond one's schedule time is usually very much appreciated, though I understand if someone has a tight schedule, that may not be best for them. The individualized attention and creativity (things that some of them would come up with and really try to find ways to provide a treatment) far exceeded what I experienced at the other facility and at the hospital. One of my favorite therapists did not need to ask me anything as she could sense (or feel with her hands) if her touch was too heavy or whatever. So, I would at least like to leave others with my opinion and personal experiences of this place. Those are all the positives. For me, since I live closeby, I am also very happy not to have to drive a long ways as sometimes it feels the tension of driving on Rt. 290 will undo a lot of the good accomplished from a treatment. The negatives would be how busy and noisy the treatment hall (don't know what else to call it) can be at times. The positives outweigh the negative aspects for me.

Caryn has been great. I started coming here because I had been to a few different psychiatrists and…read moreI kept feeling worse whenever I'd restart my medications. It ends up I had been diagnosed incorrectly, so Caryn prescribed the right type of medications for my diagnosis. I can hold down a job now. I am getting married, I have friends again, I go outside, i am not on my couch feeling lousy. I have a friend who sees someone else in her practice and she has had similar experiences. They have a nice office staff who called me back one evening to make sure I was able to get my prescriptions. They seem to really care.
