What is mental health support?

Mental health support refers to services that improve behavioral and emotional wellness. Children and adults may struggle with their mental well-being.

Sometimes people forget that children face an array of difficulties as they grow and develop, and it’s not always easy for them to verbalize the way they feel. Both children and adults can have the same issue, but they may cope with their situation in different ways.

At On the Move Medical Clinic, Karen offers mental health counseling to help you express your thoughts and feelings. She also provides compassionate support so you can find the appropriate care for your emotional or behavioral issues. She can recommend a specialist for psychiatric treatments and coordinate your treatment plan for seamless mental health care.

Who benefits from mental health services?

If you or a loved one is struggling with your mental health, you may consider professional mental health services. Common conditions that mental health support at On the Move Medical Clinic addresses include:

  • Insomnia and sleep problems
  • Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Intellectual disabilities
  • Developmental disabilities
  • Substance use disorder (SUD)
  • Anger management issues

If you experience ongoing sadness, loss of interest in favorite activities, anxiousness or fear, social isolation, behavioral problems, or substance misuse, visit On the Move Medical Clinic for an assessment.

What should I expect during mental health support appointments?

During your mental health support appointment, Karen may conduct a mental health assessment to better understand your thoughts and concerns. She also asks questions about your medical history, medications, lifestyle, and behavior patterns.

If you’re scheduling for your child, she might discuss your child’s learning disabilities, developmental delays, and issues with social skills development.

Then, Karen provides counseling to change thought or behavior patterns and improve relationships, school and work performance, and your overall quality of life. She may recommend a specialist for psychiatric treatment, such as psychotherapy. Some types of mental health issues are complex and may require specialized care to treat.
