Our Program:

Behavioral Health Services offers outpatient mental health and addiction treatment programs for adults, teens and families who are struggling to navigate the stressful and serious issues of mental health disorders and addiction.  Often, these two issues go hand in hand, as the pain of depression, anxiety or other mental health problems can lead to substance abuse and vice versa.
