Mental Health Conditions and Treatments

At Beaufort Memorial, we help people with mental and behavioral health conditions of all types. If you or a loved one has felt depressed for a long time, experienced anxiety or worries that seem out of proportion to the cause, or have unexplainable emotional swings, it’s important to seek treatment. These conditions can often be treated with the right mix of medications and therapies.

The first step is speaking to one of our board-certified primary care providers. He or she can evaluate your condition and, if needed, refer you for services at Beaufort Memorial Sea Island Psychiatry.

Conditions We Treat

The mental health providers at Beaufort Memorial Sea Island Psychiatry treat a variety of behavioral health conditions, including:

• Anxiety — More than stress, anxiety is characterized by prolonged stress, fear or worry that interferes with work, school and other elements of daily life. Our providers can help you get to the root of your anxiety, whether it’s caused by physical or mental health issues.
• Bipolar disorder — A condition that is often misdiagnosed, bipolar disorder can significantly hinder a person’s ability to function. Our providers can offer an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan that works for you.
• Borderline personality disorder — This condition affects a person’s ability to regulate emotions and can lead to intense mood swings. An accurate diagnosis is important and allows providers to develop a successful treatment plan.
• Depression — Depression is an all-too-common mental health issue but one that can be managed with changes to medication, diet and lifestyle. We work with patients to find the right mix of treatments so they can defeat this condition.
• Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) —  Compassionate care is essential for OCD, a condition many people feel embarrassed by. Our providers help patients better understand their diagnosis and find medications and other therapies that work.
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) — Traumatic events, whether related to a natural disaster, abuse or life event, can leave a lasting impact. Therapy can be very successful in helping our patients overcome PTSD.

Mental health conditions can be difficult to diagnose. Our providers have the skill and compassion necessary to give you or your loved one an accurate diagnosis and get back to enjoying life again.
