With mental health need growing, Diligence Care Plus provides science-backed care for anxiety, depression, and ADHD in San Bernardino, with effective treatment.
The expansion directly responds to the nationwide mental health crisis, where 1 in 5 Americans suffers from a mental illness and 57.8 million adults (19% of the country) had a mental illness in 2024, but only 43% received any kind of mental health care. With 19.1% of adults having had an anxiety disorder within the last year, 13.1% of U.S. adolescents and adults age 12 and older experiencing depression in a given 2-week period, and 21.4% of US adults having any mood disorder in their lifetime, the demand for specialized, evidence-based care has never been greater.
Addressing the Most Prevalent Mental Health Conditions
"We are seeing unprecedented demand for treatment of anxiety, depression, and ADHD across all age groups in our community," said Eric Efuetngu,
DNP, FNP-C, APRN at Diligence Care Plus. "These conditions are among the most common mental health challenges affecting both children and adults, and our evidence-based approach ensures that patients receive the most effective, scientifically-proven treatments available."
The alarming statistic that 17.2% of high school students report having serious thoughts of suicide underscores the critical need for immediate, comprehensive mental health intervention in the region.
