You never have to go through this process without our help.

People who suffer from mental illness know how hard it is to deal with it while working. Mental illness makes it impossible to deal with the most common daily tasks. If you suffer from any of these mental illnesses, you may be eligible for SSI and disability benefits:

• Severe depression
• Bipolar disorder / manic depression
• Anxiety and panic disorder
• Schizophrenia
• Post-traumatic stress disorder

It is imperative that you work with your mental health provider when dealing with a serious mental health problem. One of the most important things that you can do, besides getting treatment, is to document your medical symptoms. We will assist you in getting the help that you need.
