At Southeast Medical Group, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health. As your trusted primary care team, we’re here not only to manage things like blood pressure, diabetes, and preventive screenings — but also to support your emotional well-being.
Your mood, stress levels, sleep, relationships, and coping skills all affect your physical health, and vice versa. Taking care of your mind is an essential part of taking care of your whole self.
How Primary Care Supports Mental Health
Routine Mental Health Screenings
At your annual wellness visit, we check in on your emotional health — just like we monitor your blood pressure or weight.
Medication Management
If needed, we can prescribe and manage treatment for anxiety, depression, and other conditions, often right in our office.
Behavioral Health Referrals
We partner with trusted counselors and therapists and can help connect you to the right kind of support.
Support for Chronic Conditions
Living with diabetes, chronic pain, or other long-term conditions? We offer coaching and resources to ease the emotional toll of managing your health.
Mental Health Tips for Everyday Wellness
- Move Your Body
Just 10 minutes of walking, dancing, or stretching can boost mood and lower anxiety. - Connect with Others
A quick chat with a friend or neighbor can reduce stress and increase feelings of support. - Take Screen Breaks
Unplug regularly to stretch, breathe, or enjoy nature — your mind will thank you. - Practice Gratitude
Write down 3 things you’re thankful for each day to shift focus toward the positive. - Prioritize Sleep
Aim for 7–9 hours each night. Good sleep improves mood, focus, and emotional balance. - Ask for Help
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, down, or anxious, reach out. We’re here to help, you’re never alone.
You’re Not Alone
- 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experiences a mental health condition each year.
- Support is real. Help is available. Healing is possible.
