Depression affects all ages and is one of the most common mental health concerns. It's more than just feeling sad or down–it's feeling that way every day. Early detection through depression screening can improve your quality of life.

At Stepping Stones, our therapists can provide a depression screening and help you determine next steps to feeling better.

More than half of U.S. adults have experienced physical violence, and nearly half have experienced sexual violence in their lifetime.

This month we are shining a light on domestic violence. Here are some early warning signs of violent behavior:

• Repeated loss of temper
• Frequent physical fighting
• Increased use of drugs and alcohol
• Increased demonstration of risk-taking behavior
• Announcing plans or threats to commit acts of violence or hurt others
• Enjoyment in hurting animals

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, get help by calling the Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). It offers survivors of abuse confidential support, safety planning, and connections to local resources 24/7.

Sometimes, emotional pain can feel overwhelming, and reaching out for help can be difficult. If you’re struggling, having thoughts of su***de, or simply not feeling like yourself, please know that support is available.

It's important to stay connected with doctors, therapists, family, and friends. A simple conversation can make a difference.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

Do you know that Stepping Stones' therapists work closely with the providers at Lincoln Family Medicine Center to help patients receive more connected, seamless care?

Sometimes, a patient may share with their family provider that stress, anxiety, or other concerns are beginning to affect their daily life. Because both providers are located in the same building, patients can easily be connected with behavioral health support, often at the same visit.

Our care team of family medicine providers and behavioral health specialists work together to care for the whole person.

This summer, Launch Leadership's Awareness Fair gave students the opportunity to turn causes they care about into action. Thanks to a generous grant from Snow-Redfern Foundation, the winning teams were able to select nonprofits making a difference in their communities to receive donations. Stepping Stones was one of the organizations chosen by the students.

"We appreciate the students' thoughtfulness and generosity," said Abbe Edgecombe, Director of Stepping Stones.

Thank you to Launch Leadership and Snow-Redfern Foundation!

Recovery is a journey, and you don't have to walk it alone.

During Recovery Month, take time to recognize the courage it takes to ask for help or for those who have been on their journey for years.

Recovery looks different for everyone, and there is no shame in reaching out for support. With the right care, encouragement, and resources, healing is possible.

Wherever you are in your journey, Stepping Stones is here to support you.
