Mental Health Outpatient Services
Behavioral Health Clinics
Behavioral health clinical services provide care in an office setting to treat and manage ongoing mental health or co-occurring conditions. Clinics also conduct outreach to engage people who are either not yet connected to care or have not been seen in a while.
Adult clinics offer appointments and walk-in hours, including support for people who are experiencing a crisis. Youth clinics offer appointments during the day and evening hours, as well as selected school locations.
Depending on the need, services may include:
- Behavioral health screening and assessment
- Individual, family, and group therapy
- Medication management
- Crisis intervention
- Case management
- Outreach services
Expand the tables below for a list of Behavioral Health Clinics by Region serving adults ages 18 and older. Programs serving children and youth can be found at the bottom of the page.
