Important Insight Regarding Mental Health!

💚 May is Mental Health Awareness Month💚

At Mental Connections of SW LLC, we believe that every connection matters—especially when it comes to mental health.

Mental health is just as important as physical health, and taking care of your mind is a sign of strength, not weakness. Whether you're navigating stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, or simply need someone to talk to, you are not alone.

This month, we encourage you to:
• Check in on yourself and others
• Prioritize self-care
• Seek support when needed
• Break the stigma surrounding mental health

Our team is here to support individuals and families through:
✔️ Counseling
✔️ Medication Management
✔️ ABA Services
✔️ Speech Therapy

Let’s continue connecting, supporting, and growing—together.

Relaxed Performance of Disney's 'The Lion King JR' ... May 9 @ 11 a.m. This performance is specially adapted to include modifications to the traditional theatre "rules" + technical elements to reduce anxiety & sensory overload.
TICKETS: events.ticketleap.com/tickets/cta-md/lkj

⭐Sensory Adjustments: Sound levels are capped to avoid sudden loud noises + house lights remain on at a low level so the theater is never completely dark.
⭐Relaxed Etiquette: It is a "hush-free" zone where audience members are welcome to move around, make noise, or vocalize during the show without judgment.
⭐Supportive Amenities: Assigned ushers to assist + a designated "chill-out" space in the lobby for those who need a break.

Our ABA team had a wonderfully spooky Spirit Week! 🎃👻

Monday- Started our week with some spooky socks! 🕸️

Tuesday- Go Pokes! Celebrated McNeese Homecoming and did a Team Building activity! Thanks again to Bayou Escape Rooms for having us!

Wednesday- We worked on our social skills by going out to the community, and enjoyed taking pictures at a pumpkin patch, followed by fun times at the park! While we were there, we worked on our waiting skills, greetings, and interacting with others!

Thursday- For Halloween, our amazing parents created a fabulous trick-or-treating experience for our learners! Our parents went above and beyond to make it so special!

We also had a special guest teacher for Rockin Recess! 🦖

Friday- We ended our week of festivities with Pajama Day!

Along with our spirit week, our technicians participated in a costume contest and pumpkin decorating/carving contest. 🎃✨

We look forward to continuing our holiday traditions and can’t wait to see what other holiday adventures and memories we can create! ✨🧩
