Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day. NorthShore stands by everyone suffering from the tragic loss of an infant or pregnancy, and want to remind you that you are not alone. Grief can be isolating, but going through it alone can often make it even more difficult. Seeking comfort in community, and professionals can help lighten the load. NorthShore is here to help. You can call 219-763-8112, or visit our website to schedule an appointment with a mental health professional.

In honor of World Mental Health Day Beth Noel, NorthShore's Director of Behavioral Health, has a few words of support for everyone. Remember, you aren't alone and there are people who can help and support you.

We would also like to stress that taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health, and often these two can affect one another if something is off. If you are struggling and would like to seek professional help, you can schedule an appointment with NorthShore on our website, or over the phone at: 219-763-8112.
