Our approach
At Myrtle Mental Health, we believe that mental health is deeply connected to your overall well-being. Our practice provides evidence-based, integrative psychiatric care for children, teens, and adults throughout Surfside Beach, Myrtle Beach, and surrounding South Carolina communities. Whether you’re seeking help for anxiety, depression, ADHD, or reproductive mental health needs, we’re here to guide you with compassion and expertise.
Our goal is to create a safe, collaborative environment where you feel heard and empowered. We focus on understanding your unique needs and designing treatment plans that support both your mind and body.
Helping you achieve mind-body wellness
At Myrtle Mental Health, we understand that mental healthcare goes beyond what’s happening in your brain. We take a holistic approach, considering every aspect of your life and health when working with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that may consist of prescribed medications and non-pharmacological interventions.
Mental well-being is deeply connected to your overall health, which is why we require all patients to have a primary care provider to ensure that your general medical needs are being met. As part of our comprehensive care, we may order labs, recommend sleep studies, or refer you to other specialists if needed. We believe in whole body health and wellness, ensuring that you receive the support and care needed to thrive both mentally and physically.
Experience in perinatal and postpartum mental health
At Myrtle Mental Health, we understand that the journey to parenthood, through preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum, is both beautiful and complex. With additional training in reproductive psychiatry, we provide mental health support tailored to each stage, helping you navigate the emotional and psychological challenges that can arise.
Whether you're preparing for pregnancy, experiencing mood shifts during pregnancy, or adjusting to life postpartum, we're here to support you with evidence-based care. We believe in collaborative care, and will coordinate treatment with your OB-GYN or other healthcare providers to ensure you receive seamless, comprehensive care.
You don’t have to do this alone. Myrtle Mental Health is here to help you feel your best, every step of the way.
