About The Waccamaw Center for Mental Health
The Waccamaw Center for Mental Health works with children, adolescents, adults and families in Georgetown, South Carolina.
The center provides therapy, psychiatric evaluations and nursing services with support for co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns.
As part of South Carolina's state mental health system the clinic embraces a "Mental Health Center Without Walls" philosophy focused on meeting clients where they are.
Co-Occurring Disorders Therapy
The clinic includes group therapy for co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders.
Available to clients who meet eligibility criteria through the mental health center this programming integrates addiction-adjacent support within a broader behavioral health framework.
In group sessions clients work alongside peers to address the connection between mental health symptoms and substance use.
The center also provides screenings and referrals to additional substance use services through partnerships with local substance abuse commissions and community agencies.
This focus helps connect clients to the right level of care.
Community Mental Health Services
Beyond co-occurring care Waccamaw offers a full range of outpatient services, including psychiatric evaluations, crisis services and tele-psychiatry.
The center also works with Probate Courts on detention orders, evaluation orders and designated mental health examinations.
