If you're parenting an adult child through a mental health challenge, you already know this isn't a role that comes with a manual or a finish line.

That kind of sustained stress takes a major toll. Our Family Support Group meets weekly so parents in exactly this situation can unpack emotions and struggles with people who truly get it.

What parents find when they join us:
-A clearer sense of what to advocate for and when
-Language for the conversations that keep going sideways
-Connection with other parents who are in it for the long haul

When: Thursdays | 6:30 - 8:00 PM
Where: 934 South Main Street, Layton
Cost: Free and open to all families, not just DBH clients

When anxiety or overwhelm spikes, try this: name 3 things you can see, 3 things you can hear and 3 physical sensations you can feel right now. It takes under a minute and works by pulling your attention away from anxious thoughts and back into the present moment.

Your primary care doctor does a lot. But mental health is a specialty, and there are times when you need a specialist, not your GP. Here's what a psychiatric provider can offer that a general practitioner often can't:

-A detailed diagnostic evaluation, not just a quick symptom screen
-Coordination with your therapist or other members of your care team
-Broader knowledge of medication options and how different medications interact
-The ability to assess how multiple conditions might be affecting you at the same time
-Ongoing monitoring of how your medications are working, with adjustments as needed

No matter how great your GP is, some mental health concerns need more than a standard appointment can offer.

If you've been trying to get by with a prescription from your family doctor, but still aren’t feeling like yourself, speaking with a counselor might make all the difference.

Research consistently links regular physical activity to meaningful reductions in depression and anxiety symptoms. Three 20-minute walks a week is a legitimate, no-gym-required way to add movement to your routine.

While motherhood can bring so much joy, it can also bring grief, which is talked about so much less than the happy moments are.

This isn’t grief about your baby, but over yourself. The version of you that had a different schedule, different freedoms and a different sense of who you were in the world.

That person is still part of you, but things are noticeably different now. And that disorientation can catch you off guard in ways nobody warned you about.

There's actually a word for this: matrescence. It's the psychological transformation of becoming a mother, and it can feel a lot like an identity crisis even when nothing is technically “wrong.”

If you've been feeling lost in the transition, that's not weakness or ingratitude! It's one of the least-talked-about parts of motherhood, and it’s not a sign that you’re broken.

You’re simply adjusting to this new season of life, and you deserve to show yourself some grace.

Spending as little as 20 minutes in a natural setting has been shown to lower cortisol, the body's primary stress hormone. This summer, every walk outside counts as self-care!

A lot of people put off a psychiatric evaluation because they don't know what to expect. That uncertainty can feel scarier than the appointment itself.

Here's what a first evaluation generally looks like:

1️⃣ You'll answer questions about your current symptoms, how long you've had them and how they're affecting your daily life.

2️⃣ Your provider will ask about your medical history, family mental health history and any medications you're currently taking.

3️⃣ Together, you'll talk through what you've already tried and what hasn't worked.

4️⃣ Your provider will share their thinking and what they'd recommend next, whether that's medication, therapy or further evaluation.

5️⃣ You decide whether you want to move forward. No pressure to commit to anything on day one.

Ultimately, the first step is a conversation, not a verdict. And you’re the one with the power to decide whether to move forward. -
