My Approach

About our Approach

SWAG stands for:

Sunshine – Harnessing the benefits of natural light for mental well-being.

Water – Prioritizing hydration and electrolyte balance for optimal brain function.

Air (Breathing) – Utilizing breathwork and meditation for stress relief and emotional regulation.

Gratitude – Cultivating a mindset of thankfulness to enhance emotional and spiritual health.

​

This integrative model is designed to support the mind, body, and soul, helping individuals achieve mental clarity, emotional balance, and spiritual peace.

​

At SWAG Mental Health Services, we are dedicated to treating the whole person—not just the symptoms. Through our compassionate, evidence-based, and faith-driven approach, we empower our patients to achieve mental wellness, spiritual strength, and a fulfilling life.

Advanced Genetic Testing

At SWAG Mental Health Services, we are committed to providing the safest and most effective medication management approach. To ensure personalized treatment plans, we utilize Genesight technology, an advanced genetic testing tool that analyzes how an individual’s DNA affects their response to medications. By incorporating cutting-edge genetic testing, we take a personalized, data-driven approach to mental health treatment, ensuring that our patients receive the most effective, evidence-based care available.

Precision Based Treatment

• Precision-Based Treatment – Genetic testing helps us determine which medications are most likely to be effective and which may cause side effects, reducing the risk of trial-and-error prescribing.

Our Background...

SWAG Mental Health Services is a faith-based practice. Our faith in Jesus Christ is what drives us to help others, no matter their walk of life. We strive to follow His examples of kindness, patience, and truth, and we will meet you wherever you are.

​​We provide medication management, psychotherapy services, serum monitoring and lab testing, neurocognitive screening and management, hydration and nutraceutical education and support, as well as consultation/guest speaker services as a mental health advocate in Southwest Florida and East Tennessee communities.

​

Mental health issues can disrupt people's lives in many ways that impair their ability to function in major life areas, including work and relationships. Those who struggle with mental health concerns often withdraw from their community. Our team's holistic approach treats the whole person by healing the mind, body, and spirit, working with adults to examine all aspects of the individual: the psychological, spiritual, social, and biological. We strive to fully understand each person's unique challenges and facilitate healing through a multi-disciplinarian approach.

 

"Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert." Isaiah 43:19​
