(Erin Pawlak, Stephanie Jacobs, Intake Staff, Billing Staff and Website Manager) “From the billing and administrative staff to the counselors, The Behavioral Wellness Group is a well-organized, clinically experienced and compassionate group! I highly recommend licensed professional counselors, Erin Pawlak and Stephanie Jacobs! They are kind, compassionate, attentive and skilled. The IOP programs are amazing options for adolescents and adults and one the only or few of their kind in the Bluffton, SC area. Another positive to the group is that they are in network with many different insurance companies and their billing practices are transparent and seamless unlike so many other groups in the area, they also offer other billing options such as Care Credit or billing installment plans if necessary. Phone calls and emails are answered promptly, and you will never feel alone and lost here! Their website is also well maintained and informative with detailed descriptions of programs offered and clinician photos and bio."
"Erin Pawlak is a skilled, compassionate counselor and a wonderful person! I highly recommend her as a counselor and her IOP program for teens. It has been so very supportive for my family and life changing experience for my 17-year-old son! She is very responsive to teens and their families and teaches them skills for emotional and mental wellness that become lifelong assets in their personal life as well as school or career. I am so thankful for Erin and her program!"
"You have been a Godsend for my daughter & I’m forever grateful for Behavioral Wellness Group, the Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program, and finally to you, Erin, for being patient with us regarding CareSource, payments & for everything in between."
"Hi Erin, Once again I can't thank you and your practice enough for helping (my son) adopt a healthier outlook on life and the tools to help him maintain it. The great thing about learning all of that is that, in a way, you can't unlearn it. (My son) now has all these other more helpful thoughts pop up after he gets upset about something, keeping him far away from his "edge". I'm seeing it happen regularly, and as a mom, it's a wonderful thing to see."
