Improving Your Mental Health

Treatment begins with a referral. A psychiatrist, primary care physician, social worker, teacher or law enforcement officer might suggest that you come to us for care, or you might get a more informal referral from your family members and friends. You can also refer yourself.

Mental health services are covered by most medical insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid. We will not deny access to services based on inability to pay.
