Teens face the difficult task of navigating day to day life in a world inundated by peer pressure, bullying, media influences, substance abuse, and much more. As a result of that, many teens need the help of professional counselors to work through their mental and emotional struggles and get to a better state of mental health.
Is your teen depressed/anxious? Look for changes in three main areas:
Changes in mood- Feeling sad or low
- Irritability
- Feeling nothing or a lack of enjoyment in formerly pleasurable activities
- Changes in Physical Symptoms
- An increase or decrease in appetite, leading to changes in weight
- Sleeplessness or not being able to get out of bed in the morning
- Not being able to focus or concentrate
- Having little or no energy
- Feelings of agitation or restlessness, sometimes relieved by self-medication via drugs, alcohol, or self-harm
- A loss of confidence or self-esteem
- Feelings of worthlessness or hopelessness
- Self-harming behaviors
- Suicidal thoughts/threats

We are happy to announce that Stephanie Jacobs is now accepting referrals for our new In-Person Mental Health Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) in Bluffton, SC. This is perfect for clients who need more care than once a week outpatient or as a step-down from a recent hospitalization.
Mental Health IOP is an 8-week program for adults 18 years and older who need comprehensive treatment, but who do not require hospitalization. The program is designed to help clients decrease symptoms of depression, anxiety and develop coping skills needed for healthier living. This program is here to help prevent the need for inpatient treatment, as a step in the continuum of care following inpatient treatment or a step-up if once a week therapy isn’t enough. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, life stressors, emotional problems or anything significantly impacting your daily functioning, this might be a good program for you.
This group will help you:
- develop healthy coping skills to tolerate distress
- feel more in control over negative thinking
- develop a stronger sense of self and build your self-esteem
- handle life transitions with more ease
- manage difficult emotions and balance mood
- learn healthy communication and manage difficult relationships
