About Mental Health Department

Coastal Empire Community Mental Health Center (CECMH) is a facility in Beaufort, South Carolina, a city on a coastal sea island. They serve people of varying ages, from children with emotional disturbance to adults with mental illnesses and psychiatric issues.

CECMH is committed to respect, providing local care, and professionalism. I was impressed to see that they observe feedback from their patient advisory board in order to give you the best care they are able.

Mental Health Care Within Everyone’s Budget

With patient needs as their first priority, CECMH does not refuse services because of inability to pay. They accept a variety of insurances including BC/BS, Medicare, and Medicaid. If paying for care is a concern, the office can help you find a payment plan or find if you are qualified for public benefits.

Personalized and Varied Mental Health Care

CECMH offers treatment for numerous areas of mental health such as anxiety, depression, and ADD along with trauma and suicidal risk. They take a recovery-oriented approach.

CECMH provides care through several methods of behavioral therapy, often trauma-focused. One unique resource I noticed that they offer is motivational interviewing but your treatment will be personalized to take the approach that best works for your needs.

You can call during regular business hours to schedule an appointment to get help. CECMH has a separate hotline for emergency care that is available 24/7.
