Recommended Mental Health Apps for Your Phone

Brand New Resource!



​​The use of Mental Health Apps have exploded during the pandemic. They can not only be useful during these difficult times with so many families staying at home, but they can be a tool that you can use with your therapist as you do work outside your session. We recommend you visit our new resource page that has an extensive list of apps based on diagnosis or issue. ​
​Click Here to visit the new resource page for clients. 

​​We're All in This Together

​We partner with an organization called Music for the Soul. They recently produced a video and song that addresses the impact that the recent pandemic has had on all of us. This inspirational song gives hope and addresses that we are "All in This Together." To learn more about Music for the Soul, click here. 

*All proceeds from this project will
​ benefit recovery and relief efforts.

Click to Take a Free Mental Health Self Test

​
​The test screens you for 12 of the most common mental health conditions. Answering the questions will give you an idea of how likely you are to have each condition. The higher your score, the more likely you need to talk to one of our therapists.

Nutrition and Mental Health 

Picture
Picture

We have recently been working with Dr. Michelle Trias as a referral to clients who would like to improve their diet and nutrition. This can have a huge impact on a person's mental health. There is more and more research coming out that points to a brain/gut connection as it relates to the impact diet has on mental health. We believe that it is important to look at the whole person and diet is often overlooked when coming to a therapist. The impact that diet alone has on depression for example, can't be overlooked. Talk to your therapist about a referral if you are interested. 

​​Here is Dr. Michelle's contact information and website:

We are Excited to Feature Some Healing Music by Kendol Bacchus

​Kendol Bacchus brings to today’s world-music soundscape a pianism that is eclectic, melodic, and deeply emotional. His varied approaches to piano music offer unique poetic genres and colors. You will find his music to be both reflective and introspective. 

God has gifted Kendol with intuition and the ability to create music to meet the emotional needs of the person who may be struggling with a specific issue. I would encourage you to go to his website or join his You Tube channel. Click Here to go to his website to learn more about his work and sample some of his music.
