Are you struggling to cope with the demands of daily life? Are you experiencing sadness or lack of joy, but you don’t know why? Do you lack the motivation to do things that you usually enjoy or find that the things that used to interest you are now uninteresting? Maybe you find yourself worrying all the time - about something specific or about anything and everything. Do you experience more stress than you need to because you put things off till the last minute? Perhaps you can’t stay focused long enough to finish all the things that you need to finish.

Psychiatrist, MD

Whether you are new to mental health or have a history of mental health issues, you are likely looking for a supportive environment, diagnostic clarification, and knowledge regarding all treatment options. You are needing a provider who will listen to your concerns and get to know you as a person. If you are the parent of a child with mental health issues, you are seeking a place where your child will feel comfortable and nurtured. You are wanting a provider who will spend the time getting to know your child and family dynamic, while providing your child with the quality care they would want for their own children.

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP, MSN

Mental illness knows no socio-economic boundaries and afflicts people in all socioeconomic statuses. Yet, mental illness has unnecessarily been a taboo, which is particularly unfortunate because this only makes it more likely that people will suffer in silence. It is an ordinary illness with its own kind of treatment approaches. Life is full of overwhelming challenges that may affect mental balance. Also, mental illness is often not situational and is prominent among members of certain families. With all this, it is no surprise that mental illness is rampant and should be taken seriously and treated, rather than hiding in shame.
