Clear Point Counseling Services has a new home Privacy of its patients is a top priority
Clear Point was founded on the premise of creating opportunities and promoting individual choice, while working to change the lives of children, adolescents, adults, and families living with mental health, behavioral health and substance abuse disorders. Recently, the center moved from its previous location on 417 Bridge St. to 901 Hackney Ave. Executive director Anthony Tyre said the move was necessitated to offer his clients more privacy. “Until we can break the stigma associated with mental, behavioral health and substance abuse disorders, it was important to find a place that offered a more private setting where they can come and go and not worry about being seen,” said Tyre” This was an issue at our previous location on Bridge St., because of the high visibility of the area. The new location has less of a big clinic feel and allows me to be more personable with my clients, and offers my clients more safety.”
