2017 Guide to Mental Health and Community Support Services

Building a strong foundation of emotional wellness.

A community where children can grow and thrive without fear, where good mental health is valued; where people of all ages know when and how to seek help for emotional or family problems without shame; and where everyone will have access to services with barriers.

Programs and Services PREPARING RESILIENT CHILDREN Helping children learn mental and emotional resilience now will help them adapt to the situations and setbacks they’ll face throughout life, and to become the strong, stable citizens our community needs. To prepare them for success-and stability-we work in a few different ways: • • •

Providing guidance and information to first-time parents; Making sure every child has a developmentally appropriate learning environment; and Working with parents and educators when children display behavioral issues.

These activities give children the emotional, social, and cognitive skills they’ll carry throughout their lives—into the classroom, the workplace, and the home.

SECURING VULNERABLE FAMILIES Many family situations present pressing challenges that affect everyone in them. They not only disrupt entire families; they can leave children without a stable or permanent home and can increase a child’s risk for struggles later in life—like mental illness, unemployment, even prison.

So to help these children and families now, and in the future, MHA: • • •

Provides a safe location where parents and children can spend time together to renew or sustain supportive relationships; Makes sure children in difficult circumstances are able to get from one parent to the other safely; and Works to find the loving, permanent homes for children caught in an overburdened court system deserve.

Through all this work with vulnerable families, we provide support, stability, and the promise of a better tomorrow.

FACING CRISES TOGETHER We all encounter moments and challenges that we struggle to face alone.

These are more than urgent challenges. They’re the pivot points of life.

Because no one should have to face these struggles alone MHA is here24 hours a day, 7 days a week: • • •

Intervening and offering a supportive voice at the moment of crisis; Providing resources and information that show you the way forward; and Offering sustained counseling and assistance for the weeks and months ahead.

We’re helping our community—we’re saving lives—every single day.

SUPPORTING OUR WHOLE COMMUNITY MHA does more than support the thousands of individuals who seek out our services each year—we provide mental health education and advocacy on a community-wide level, raising awareness of the importance of mental health and of mental health services.

This works strengthens our whole community by encouraging those who feel alone to seek out support; promoting understanding; and bolstering mental and emotional well-being in schools, businesses, and homes.

Mental Health Professionals The Role of Counseling and the Licensed Specialties Professional counseling or therapy is a valuable part of growth and treatment for a variety of circumstances individuals face – from coping with everyday events to managing severe emotional problems. Each situation is unique and may be treated in a variety of manners. Therapy can improve quality of life and life choices; it can provide new alternatives for old behaviors; and it may identify more serious mental illnesses and offer specific treatments for emotional wellness and a quality life.

Common problems leading people to seek professional help are depression, anxiety, inability to concentrate, suicidal thoughts, changeable moods, problems with others, lack of self-confidence, family and marital problems, and physical issues such as not sleeping, chronic tiredness, upset stomach, headaches and substance use or dependence.

Welcome Welcome to Blue Ridge Behavioral Health Services.

New patients should call our intake coordinator to begin the appointment process.

Who We Are We are a team of psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and counselors working together to provide comprehensive behavioral health care.

We have an Education Consultant to assist you in communicating with the school and obtaining the services that your child needs.

Several principles guide our treatment approach. We think individuals are best understood in the context of their family, community, work and school.

We consider treatment to be most effective when it is based on a comprehensive evaluation. And finally, we believe the best treatment occurs when providers collaborate to ensure effective, well-coordinated care.
