Bernadette Namatovu and Relief Mental Health Chicago West Loop are simply the best providers I’ve ever had for treating my longtime Clinical Depression. My life has changed in a dramatically positive way as a result of this therapy. I encourage all others who’ve dealt with Depression to try them! 5 star quality in this office from reception to nurses to Therapists.

They canceled my appointment the day of. Had to take off work for this. Just to be here and be told to leave. UPDATE: they wanted me to pay today, no problem, gave them my checking info because it’s an option for payment. They don’t want to accept it

★★★★★★★★★★Betsi PinkusNov 2025

Dr Bess is wonderful. I feel very comfortable speaking with her. She gives me many options and we weigh pros and cons together. She is able to refer to past statements (concerns, positives) I’ve made to provide better options and explanations.

Bernadette and Mary, her assistant, are a wonderful team. Understanding, calm, helpful, caring. We had very good experiences with the clinic.

★★★★★★★★★★Lauren PietersOct 2025

I was so blessed to find Dr. Meagan 7 years ago. Her skills are the best and I refer to her to my friends as "the mixmaster". Very compassionate and has been a strong advocate for my health and healing.

★★★★★★★★★★Yvonne BustamanteSep 2025

Dr. Bess Levin is extremely thorough and attentive. She makes me feel safe, at ease and understood. She has saved my life! I went from panic, terrified, lost and unsure to finding my voice and feeling calm, secure and happy. She is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend Dr. Levin.

★★★★★★★★★★Chris HaleAug 2025

Today was my first visit to discuss TMS as an option for my treatment. I was very impressed with Dr. Poprawski. She was very empathetic and I could tell she is truly invested in caring for her patients. She explained everything about the TMS therapy and what to expect. Very happy I found Relief Mental Health
