If your life has been impacted by a mental health disorder or a substance use concern, it can be a significant challenge to decide what path you need to follow to experience an improved quality of life. Diminished self-confidence and emotions such as shame or fear can prevent you from moving forward. But please remember this: You are not alone, and the help you need may be much closer than you realize. Also, one phone call can open up a world of possibility for you. Contact us directly to discover your options and determine the best next step for you.
If you're uncertain about what the treatment process includes, it can be distressing to take the next step and get the professional help you need. Pause, take a deep breath, and give yourself a moment to research our treatment environment and how we develop a personalized plan of care so that you can build a foundation for lasting recovery: http://ow.ly/GBWy50BBG8H

We almost always try to include a hopeful or motivational message in the posts we share on Mondays. We do this because we understand what a challenge it often is to feel inspired and energized at the beginning of the week. But for the many people who have ADHD, the fight to remain focused and driven can feel like a never-ending struggle. In a recent Psych Central article, two ADHD experts identified a few fundamental strategies that can make a significant positive difference: http://ow.ly/5BUF102pNyI

Welcome to the 2020 edition of OCD Awareness Week. According to information collected by the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 2 million adults in the U.S. have developed obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Signs of OCD occur most frequently among individuals age 19 and older, but children can also be affected. Even though OCD is not an uncommon disorder, many people continue to believe myths and false information. Promoting greater awareness and understanding of OCD requires a concerted effort by us all. Here's a brief introductory video about OCD: http://ow.ly/llNT102p8aW

The continuing impact of the global COVID-19 crisis has forced us all to make many changes in our lives. Plenty of us have even altered how, where, and when we vote. For example, many states have reported record numbers of early voting, including citizens who voted by mail. However, millions of Americans throughout the country will still be voting in person on Election Day. If you intend to vote in person on November 3, you should review a few basic but important safety tips first. Here's a thorough article that contains a wealth of information about staying safe while voting: http://ow.ly/4f9T102r1Nf

One valuable lesson 2020 has taught us is that wearing masks doesn't only happen on Halloween anymore. Now that flu season has begun, we encourage you to stay safe by using masks that cover your mouth and nose. The CDC has posted a few simple tips for making your own customized masks: http://ow.ly/jusA102qQRu
