We appreciate the team from NeuroHealth Treatment Centers stopping by our outpatient clinic for an in-service earlier this month. 🤝

Opportunities like this are a great reminder of how important it is for behavioral health partners to stay connected, share updates and learn from one another. The more aligned we are as providers, the better we can support the individuals and families we serve in our community. 🧠💙

Thank you to NeuroHealth Treatment Centers for taking the time to share insights with our team.

We had a great time at this year’s Florida Association of School Social Workers Conference in Coral Springs! 🙌

Grateful to connect with so many professionals focused on supporting youth and families through mental health crises while strengthening collaboration between schools, first responders and behavioral health providers. 🤝

We had important conversations around prevention, the Baker Act process and making sure students get the care and resources they need. 📚🛟

LGTBQI+ youth are at higher risk for depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation - not due to their identity, but from stigma, discrimination and lack of support. Over 40% of LGTBQI+ youth considered su***de in 2023, with higher rates for transgender and BIPOC youth.

Being LGBTQI+ does not cause mental health problems; rather, bullying, family rejection and discrimination are the primary stressors. Acceptance from family, schools and peers is a protective factor that significantly lowers su***de risks. 24/7 crisis support for LGBTQI+ youth crisis is available at our center at 954-734-2001.

Mental health balance means honoring your needs by setting boundaries, allowing rest and embracing imperfections. It is the practice of nurturing your mind and body equally, acknowledging that productivity requires downtime. True balance is not avoiding life's challenges but finding inner calm and strength while navigating them.

If you are struggling with finding balance, please remember that asking for help is a sign of courage, not a weakness. Whether it be through friends, family or professionals like those at our center. Call us today at 954-734-2001 (Admissions) or 954-734-2066 (Outpatient Clinic).

We had a great time at the Coconut Creek Wellness Fair this past week. It was a very educational event and a great opportunity to connect with the community around mental health and substance use resources, and always great tabling alongside The Renfrew Center and Discovery Behavioral Health.

Special thanks to Cynthia (middle), our Director of Admissions, for joining us and highlighting our admissions process for anyone interested in seeking treatment.

The 2026 Social Work Month theme is "Social Work: Uplift. Defend. Transform.", honoring the vital role social workers play in strengthening communities by breaking down barriers, fighting for justice and providing critical support. This March, we celebrate your dedication to empowerment, advocacy and compassion on the frontlines of social change.

At Fort Lauderdale Behavioral Health Center, we celebrate our Social Workers by honoring their continued work to our community every day. We are proud to stand with you!

Daylight Saving Time (DST) changes, particularly the spring "spring forward", disrupt circadian rhythms, leading to increased fatigue, anxiety and depression due to reduced sleep and altered light exposure. Protect your mental health by maximizing morning sunlight, exercising and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule.

Acknowledge that you may feel "off" for a week or two. Give yourself grace as your body recalibrates. If low mood, anxiety or fatigue persist for more than two weeks after the time change, consider consulting a mental health professional by calling our Outpatient Clinic at 954-734-2066.

Employee Appreciation Week gives us a chance to shine a light on the people whose effort, energy and character move our organization forward. At Fort Lauderdale Behavioral Health Center, we’re surrounded by individuals who don’t just do their jobs — they elevate them. They’re the ones who bring ideas to life, support one another and create the kind of workplace where real impact happens.

What makes this week meaningful isn’t the celebration itself, but the reminder it brings: the work we do every day is powered by people who care. People who show up with determination, kindness and a commitment to doing things the right way. That deserves more than a quick acknowledgment — it deserves genuine appreciation. Happy Employee Appreciation Week!
