The Clinical Department offers clients support and education with a focus on mental health wellness. Many people with epilepsy struggle with depression and anxiety in addition to managing a chronic medical condition. It is not easy but you are not alone. Clinicians are available to offer support through short-term, solution-focused individual counseling sessions, group psychotherapy, mindfulness training, skill building workshops, and substance abuse support.
