Healthy Minds

Community Resources for Resilience, Support and Well-Being

Sometimes, life gets tough. Circumstances can change without warning, and it can be hard to bounce back during difficult times. The Healthy Lee Behavioral Health Coalition’s new initiative, Healthy Minds, can provide you with valuable resources and support as you cope with your own unique challenges.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many have experienced a change in employment through no fault of their own, leading to financial strain. Parents have found themselves spread thin and struggling to juggle the demands of working a full-time job against the need to homeschool young children. People feel more isolated and less in control of their lives. Still more are reeling from a scary medical diagnosis or fear of infection. And some are grieving the recent loss of a loved one or family home.

It can feel overwhelming if you don’t know where to start, but you are not alone.

Healthy Minds brings together a diverse network of professional resources, educational events, complimentary mental health screenings, and useful tools and techniques to help you gain resilience and overcome whatever adversity or trauma is facing you today.

Success Stories

“Our Healthy Minds team received a call from someone that was desperately seeking help for his girlfriend. He mentioned that his girlfriend had lost two close family members recently, and she was depressed. After assessing for suicide risk, the boyfriend confirmed his girlfriend was not suicidal but advised she was in desperate need of mental health counseling. Our team directed him to the HealthyLee.com website and resources available through Healthy Minds. A few days later on a follow-up call, our team confirmed that the girlfriend was upbeat, thankful for the resources and had her first virtual counseling session, and was looking forward to continuing therapy.”

“During a Healthy Minds event, our team met a client that said he was depressed after his sister in Peru recently passed away due to COVID-19. He stated that he has had suicidal thoughts in the past. He mentioned he did not have health insurance and didn’t know where to begin to find help. We shared with him more about the Healthy Minds resources, partners, the resiliency toolkit, and set up a follow-up meeting. During our follow-up, the client was upbeat and shared that he was actually attending his first private counseling session that day. He mentioned that he felt much better after speaking with our team and reading the resources provided at the Healthy Minds event.”

"Upon arrival to the Healthy Minds booth, I was welcomed and put at ease immediately. The volunteers helped me when I couldn't help myself. Ultimately, they changed my life."
