Behavioral Health
Behavioral Health Services
Our Behavioral Health providers are prepared to support clients of all ages, addressing a wide range of challenges. We work alongside medical providers to integrate care for the body and mind with treatment plans tailored to each client or family’s individual needs. Our goal is to assist and empower our clients to tackle and overcome their personal struggles and improve their quality of life.
Counseling
Our counseling services help patients with a variety of issues, spanning from mental health and wellness to career goals. These services are best suited for patients seeking the help of professionals to overcome specific obstacles in their lives. We pair each patient with a health provider who works with them to:
- Establish appropriate goals
- Identify possible solutions
- Develop coping skills
- Provide ongoing support
In many cases, patients can use what they learn in counseling to manage or resolve current issues as well as maintain better mental health moving forward.
Stress Management
Patients who find that stress interferes with their ability to live life normally can benefit from stress management. When someone experiences an unhealthy amount of stress, they may struggle to cope with their usual activities, tasks, and responsibilities, making it difficult for them to experience any happiness in their lives. Often, this stress stems from a mental illness, physical condition, or experience in the patient’s life, such as:
- Depression or anxiety
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Loss of a loved one
- Chronic or severe illness, disability, or pain
- Financial issues
Anyone who feels overwhelmed by stress can take advantage of our stress management services. We teach patients techniques for dealing with stress and reclaiming control over their lives.
