💚Andrews on the Road: Wood County Edition

When our leadership team hits the road, it’s more than a visit — it’s a celebration of the people who keep hope moving forward across East Texas.

Our recent Roadshow stop in Mineola was filled with laughter, conversation, and skills development — from making the perfect s’more to testing out our curling form!

These Roadshows are our chance to connect in person with the amazing teams serving our five counties (Henderson, Rains, Smith, Van Zandt, and Wood) to celebrate successes, learn about challenges, and share ideas that keep us growing together.

Because at Andrews Behavioral Health, every county is part of the mountain we move — one smile, one story, and one stop at a time. ⛰️

Building Stronger Teams to Better Serve Our Clients

This week, the leadership team at Andrews Behavioral Health gathered for a session focused on understanding our different communication styles. The session, facilitated by Kim Beckham Collaborative Leadership, explored the DiSC model — a framework that helps people recognize and adapt to four key behavioral styles: Dominance (D), Influence (I), Steadiness (S), and Conscientiousness (C), which is also termed Compliant..

Each style brings unique strengths. For example, a highly detailed, low-key C may prefer careful planning, while a results-driven D values directness and quick decisions. Neither is better — they’re simply different ways of engaging with the world. By understanding our own natural tendencies and learning to flex our approach, we can communicate more clearly, collaborate more effectively, and reduce friction across teams.

At Andrews Behavioral Health, we’re committed to continuous learning — because when our teams grow stronger, our service to clients grows stronger too. Every insight we gain helps us move mountains for the individuals and families who count on us. 💚

If you have questions or comments about DiSC, feel free to drop a comment.

This October, let’s bring hope into view.

For many, depression hides behind “I’ll be okay,” “It’s just a rough patch,” or “I should be able to handle this.” But when those feelings linger, they deserve attention.

At Andrews Behavioral Health, we’re committed to providing a safe space—no shame, no judgment, just support.

👉 This month is National Depression & Mental Health Screening Month — a reminder that checking in on your mental health is brave, not weak.

If you know someone who’s been quieter than usual, struggling with daily life, or saying things like “What’s the point?”, please reach out. Sometimes a simple “How are you really?” and then taking the time to really listen can make all the difference.

Together, we can shine light on what often feels like a dark and scary space.

Andrews Behavioral Health was proud to join National Night Out in Wills Point — an annual event that brings neighbors, first responders, and community partners together to celebrate safety, service, and connection.

Representing Andrews was McKenna Wiggins, Canton Clinic Manager, along with Zinia Guerrero, Children's Case Manager, sharing information about our mental health services and supporting those who protect and serve our communities every day.

Together, we’re building stronger, healthier East Texas communities — one conversation at a time.

🏆 Congratulations to Our Outstanding Team Serving Quitman ISD!

We’re so proud of Ashlee Ball, QMHP-CS, Dawn Butterfield, LPC, and Lori Moon, LCDC, who were each honored with the Quitman ISD Top Dog Award at a recent School Board meeting! 🎉
|
These incredible Andrews team members have gone above and beyond through our School-Based Behavioral Health Services program, providing therapy, skills training, and SUD support directly on QISD campuses — helping students build healthy coping skills without ever leaving school.
|
This partnership began in 2023 thanks to the vision of Dr. Beverly Waddleton, Andrews Board Member and Wood County Hospital District advocate, and Superintendent Christopher Mason, who saw the growing need for student mental health support. Together with district leaders and the Hospital District, Andrews helped bring that vision to life.

What started as a small effort “to help even one child” has grown into a life-changing presence on campus — improving emotional well-being, attendance, and academic success for countless students.

We’re deeply grateful to Dr. Waddleton and the Wood County Hospital District for their leadership and support, and we couldn’t be prouder of our team’s compassionate dedication to the students and families of Quitman ISD. 💚

Andrews Behavioral Health was honored to take part in a recent community event in Tyler focused on raising awareness about homelessness: One Night Without a Home. It was sponsored by ETHNN, East Texas Human Needs Network. Local groups spent the night in the park to better understand the plight of those living without a home.

Homelessness and mental health are deeply connected. Many people experiencing homelessness live with untreated mental illness, and many individuals struggling with mental health challenges face barriers that put their housing at risk.

At Andrews, we believe that everyone deserves safety, stability, and support on the road to recovery.

Together, we are moving mountains for mental health—and for hope. 💚

This past Saturday, we joined the community at Evie Rocks Tyler 2025 — a powerful day of music, connection, and compassion at True Vine Brewing Company. 💚

🌎 October 10 is World Mental Health Day 🌎

Mental health is a global challenge — but at its heart, it’s really a human one. Every person, everywhere, deserves care, compassion, and hope.

At Andrews Behavioral Health, we can’t serve the whole world. But we can care deeply for our little corner of it — our neighbors, our families, our community.

And when each of us does our part, the world changes one heart at a time. 💚
