BLISS allows me to live stigma-free

Many individuals with infectious conditions like HIV and AIDS experience mental health issues due to past trauma, difficulty with family, and medical challenges. To help you better cope, BLISS Health offers mental health services, including individuals, family, and group counseling, and prescription medication. To schedule an appointment in-person or via telemedicine, contact the office online or call (407) 203-5984.

What are mental health services?

Mental health services are designed to promote good emotional, psychological, and social well-being. The team at BLISS Health focuses on two areas, in particular:

Counseling

Counseling is a goal-based, collaborative process that helps change the way you think, feel, and behave. At BLISS Health, we tailor counseling to each individual’s unique needs. The mental health professionals on staff are licensed and bilingual. They specialize in sexual health, trauma, and transgender issues.

Prescription medication

Counseling isn’t always enough to ease uncomfortable symptoms caused by mental illness. Following a comprehensive psychological evaluation, we can make prescription recommendations as necessary, or refer you to a psychiatrist if we feel that you may benefit from specialized psychiatric care. If you are prescribed medication at BLISS Health, you fill and refill your prescription at the on-site pharmacy or via mail.
