Silver Lining Behavioral Health continues integrating medical and behavioral health services with individuals of all ages, couples, and families. We are constantly examining approaches to medication management, illness management, accurate diagnosis, and prevention. Mental illness impacts millions of people across the globe, but a shortage of healthcare providers often makes receiving comprehensive mental health extremely difficult.
Silver Lining Behavioral Health launched in January of 2023. So far, it has been a wonderful roller coaster ride. We are actively onboarding new clinicians, as we process and open new psychotherapy cases. Silver Lining Behavioral Health is currently working with physician groups, rehab centers, senior living facilities, parenting groups, and coalitions like Stand Strong, whose mission is to defeat substance abuse.

I have done many seminars and small group workshops focusing on overcoming employee burnout due to stress at the workplace. I love teaching employers and employees how to defeat this monster that not only decreases productivity but creeps outside of the workplace into personal lives, like a hurricane destroying the individual’s health on its path.
Over the years, I had clients walk through my door describing symptoms of Depression (primary features of which are pervasive feelings of hopelessness and helplessness), Anxiety, Chronic Fatigue, Insomnia, Hypersomnia, IBS, and Irritability.
