Understanding Our Approach to Care

Our unique advantage is that we offer both counseling and psychiatric care in one practice, allowing for comprehensive and coordinated treatment.

Psychiatric Care:

Psychiatric care is a collaborative partnership between you and your provider. Your treatment plan will be personalized based on a thorough review of your medical and psychiatric history, as well as your current needs. With your consent, we may gather information from family members or other healthcare providers. We utilize various tools, including screening questionnaires and sometimes lab tests, to assist with diagnosis, monitor medication levels, and track your response to treatment.

Our goal is holistic, patient-centered care. The length and frequency of your appointments will depend on your specific needs. Typically, medication management follow-ups begin every 3 to 4 weeks and gradually decrease to every 3 to 4 months, or even less often, as your treatment progresses.

Counseling is strongly recommended for patients taking medication for mood or behavioral disorders. It plays a crucial role in achieving long-term wellness by developing coping skills and providing valuable insights into your treatment plan's effectiveness.

Counseling:

Counseling offers a safe, respectful, and supportive environment where you and a trained professional work together to achieve your goals and improve your overall well-being. We work with individuals from all walks of life, addressing a wide range of challenges.

Your first session, the intake, is a chance to discuss your concerns and create a plan for positive change. It's also an opportunity to ensure that you and your counselor are a good fit. This initial stage can be adjusted as needed. Psychological testing may be used for a deeper understanding of your individual needs.

Because everyone is unique, the counseling process and duration will vary.

After the intake, you and your counselor will explore your challenges in more depth, examining how psychological, relational, and/or medical factors may be contributing. Together, you will develop a personalized treatment strategy that includes education, guidance, and support.

The final stage of counseling focuses on refining your skills and strategies so you feel confident managing your well-being independently. Follow-up sessions are always available as needed.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Barnabas Behavioral Healthcare is a non-acute outpatient clinic serving clients throughout South Carolina from our Columbia location. Our experienced counselors and medication management providers offer high-quality psychiatric care. It's important to understand that as an outpatient, non-acute care practice, we do not offer 24-hour coverage like a hospital or inpatient facility. Patients do not stay overnight, and your provider may not always be immediately available.

Office Hours and Communication:

Our office hours are 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday, excluding some holidays. We do not routinely check messages after hours. This means that any messages or communications you send outside of business hours may not be seen until the next business day. We appreciate your understanding that responses may take up to 72 hours.

Levels of Care:

As an outpatient practice, we cannot provide the same level of care as an inpatient facility. Our patients may sometimes require additional care that we are not equipped to provide. For example, in the event of a severe medication reaction, you should go to the ER, not our office. If you require direct observation or inpatient care, your provider will work with you to make an appropriate referral.

Emergencies:

If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, take immediate action to ensure your safety. Go to the nearest Emergency Room or call 911. Our office may not be able to respond to you directly in such situations.

Establishing a Therapeutic Relationship:

We are not responsible for your care until you have met with one of our providers for an initial intake session. This means we cannot prescribe medications or complete paperwork until a diagnostic assessment has been conducted. You are not considered a patient of Barnabas Behavioral Healthcare until you have met with one of our licensed providers.

Crisis Situations:

If you are in crisis and in danger of harming yourself or someone else, please go directly to the Emergency Room, call 911, or contact the appropriate crisis center.
