Local Business Cruz Clinic Needs Your Support

The new coronavirus has changed life for all of us. Local businesses have taken a huge economic hit, but communities are finding creative ways to support the establishments they know and love.

In an effort to help local businesses in our communities stay connected and succeed, Patch will shine a light on some of them through a series of Q&A articles during this time.

Cruz Clinic is one of the businesses in town facing struggles during the coronavirus. You can lend your support by reading more about the company, below, and by contacting them here.

Tell us about your business and its history in your town.

We are an outpatient behavioral health clinic that provides comprehensive psychiatric and psychological care for a richer, fuller and more productive daily life. We are committed to providing professional services for the entire family from childhood through aging. We have been located in Livonia for over 30 years.

How has the new coronavirus impacted your business and its employees?

We are seeing new and existing patients through tele-heath services. We feel that we can still provide the patient care that is needed at this time.

Do you have any words of encouragement for your community?

Your mental health is more important than ever!

Are you offering any special services, promotions or hours during this time?

Cruz Clinic will see first responders to COVID-19 for free for a consultation. We are treating several doctors and nurses via tele-health. One of our doctorate level psychologists who was in the Air Force said that his patients — doctors and nurses at Beaumont Hospital — are describing situations that rival anything he saw from combat medics in Iraq and Afghanistan and that "they are true American heroes.”

We are doing what we can to help these individuals by offering free consultations to support them, help them process what is going on, validate their feelings, and give them psycho-education. We believe these sessions will go a long way in prevent PTSD. Please call 734-462-3210 for more information.
