May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to elevate conversations about emotional and psychological well-being. Mental wellness extends far beyond the diagnosis or treatment of mental illness; it reflects how we think, feel, act, and cope with daily life.

At Garnet Health, we are here to help. Our outpatient behavioral health professionals provide counseling, hope and healing for you and your loved ones.

Our Outpatient Behavioral Health Services are located at:

Garnet Health Medical Center

75 Crystal Run Road, Middletown, NY

Garnet Health Medical Center - Catskills

68 Harris Bushville Road, Harris, NY

Join us on Friday, May 29, for a welcoming, supportive space to learn, share, and connect around mental health and wellness. In collaboration with MHA, this monthly series will provide education, resources, and open conversation to support emotional well-being.

This first session will include education on anxiety and resources from MHA bilingual presenter Brenda Sanchez Lopez. Spanish speakers welcome.

What to Expect:

• Guided discussions on mental health topics
• Education on coping strategies and stress management
• Access to community resources
• A safe, supportive environment for conversation

Diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, often develops gradually, and many people don't realize they're at risk until symptoms begin to appear.

The good news is that type 2 diabetes is often preventable or delayed through healthy lifestyle changes.

• Make small changes to the way you eat without giving up the foods you love
• Increase your physical activity levels to 30 minutes a few days a week
