We want you to hear firsthand about how the work we do shapes our clients’ recovery experience. We also have clients and families whom we have worked with as a resource to bring clarity to our process. They are happy to speak with you as we practice full transparency and deeply respect the process of choosing the right team to optimize your recovery experience.

The Spearhead Health team is exceptional and they have an all hands on deck approach to helping people with mental illness. They are genuinely caring professionals who have a deep interest and a true desire to help people navigate the trials and tribulations that are part and parcel with mental health. They have always been there for me through thick and thin and their support in helping me cope with my mental illness has been invaluable. I have struggled with Bi-Polar 1 disorder for decades of my life and could not stay consistent with my medication, mood, or functioning in the world. After a year of support, my life has transformed in ways I never thought were imaginable. They were always available for support 24/7 on a whims notice. I highly recommend Dean, Ryan, and the entire Spearhead Health team to anyone who is struggling with a mental illness.

While under the care of Spearhead Health, you are connected to a community that fully understands the individual challenges one faces during all stages of recovery, whether it be from substance abuse or mental health issues, and I am in awe of their genuine, heartfelt desire to restore their clients to their best self. The team at Spearhead Health simply put works miracles.
— Diane G., Mother of Past Participant, Chicago, IL
Spearhead Health was a wonderful resource when we needed it most. The world of recovery is daunting and when one needs to enter that world, for oneself or a loved one, it’s hard to know where to start, with whom to speak, or how to navigate the vast array of options. Ryan took us under his wing from our first conversation and guided us through the labyrinth with experience, wisdom and heart. With so much at stake he was our lifeline. Highly recommend Spearhead to anyone who needs a trusted advisor to help lead the way.
