About Inland Empire Behavioral Group’s Blog

Inland Empire Behavioral Group’s Blog elucidates and focuses on providing up-to-date and fact-checked information about different types of mental conditions and their treatments. It also shines light on how you can use your environment and body to cope with these conditions and makes the best effort to answer everything about it, whether it is complex or simple.

For Psychoeducation Only

Our foremost concern is proper psychoeducation, not diagnosis or treatment. It may help you in terms of easing the symptoms that you are suffering from and help you understand what you are going through while also guiding you who to consult in the end. Our articles, though, will never substitute for a proper diagnosis or treatment plan.

All our articles and information are based on up-to-date medical research and are aptly referenced by it. If anything, this information will complement your consultation with a mental health professional. Sometimes, there will be overlaps, but the content provided on Inland’s blog and other informational pieces will not be replaced by the care provided by its actual mental health experts nor does it promote its own services. Remember, these articles are educational tools, not replacements for expert medical advice. It is meant to be an additional tool for psychoeducation not a replacement for medical advice.

An Expert Team

Our academic researchers and adept writers painstakingly work together to formulate and articulate information that converts into complementary yet sound advice. They are trained and expected to dive into the domain of mental health and translate complex mental health topics into words that are easy to understand. They also stay abreast of the changes in the domain to swiftly debunk myths and create evidence-based mental health information that is actually helpful.

Abreast & Accurately Cited Sources

We use these types of reliable sources for formulating the information in the articles that are uploaded on our blog: 

  • Studies published in peer-reviewed medical journals.
  • Official information from major health organizations like the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), for example, from something like the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) available on APA. 
  • Textbooks written by and for doctors.
  • Case studies and whitepapers written by and for doctors. 
  • High-ranking, trustworthy, and authoritative websites like The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), Healthline, Cleveland Clinic, PsychCentral, Psychology Today and WebMD.

Medical Review is a Priority

We always come back to each article regularly to revisit and ensure that it’s still accurate and up-to-date, and it’s re-reviewed by a mental health professional (who is a specialist of the domain) at least every few years as sooner or later when there’s a significant medical advance or change, we can change it.

Empowering Through Sound Information

Our blog strives to be a trusted partner in your health. By providing accurate, accessible, and expert-reviewed information, we prioritize helping you in a way that you always will be making informed decisions about your well-being. Always remember that while our articles offer valuable insights, they shouldn’t be replacing the advice of your healthcare provider.
