Fairwinds: Nantucket's Counseling Center

Fairwinds: Nantucket's Counseling Center Fairwinds provides confidential mental health and addiction services, including therapy, substance misuse treatment, and emergency care.

All are welcome, regardless of ability to pay. We provide comprehensive licensed therapeutic support that fosters mental health through prevention, wellness education, and addiction recovery services. About 60 years ago, members of the Nantucket community gathered to discuss the critical need for an organization that could serve as a source of hope for those islanders who were affected by mental health issues. Since that time, under the name Family & Children’s Services of Nantucket, we worked tirelessly to create an organization that could serve as a safe place for our patients and stand as a symbol of hope for the island. As a non-profit agency with a rich history, we’ve unfortunately experienced challenges in recent years. However, we can proudly say that these challenges have dramatically strengthened us, and the resulting changes have provided us with even greater opportunities to grow and expand our effectiveness and outreach.

📚💛 Back-to-school season can bring excitement—but also anxiety, stress, and pressure for both students and parents.
This September, as we observe Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, let’s remember: mental health matters all year long, and starting the school year with open conversations can make all the difference.
If you or someone you love is struggling, you are not alone.
