Types of care we offer

Everyone’s needs are different. We help you find care that can best support your goals and situation.

Therapy and counseling

Therapy helps you build skills and make changes. You can talk about your thoughts, feelings, and challenges. You can also learn ways to manage stress and change habits that may cause problems. Therapy is offered for individuals, couples, families and small groups.

Psychiatry, medical mental health care and medication management

Some mental health concerns benefit from medical care, which focuses on how the body and brain affect thoughts, feelings and behavior. A psychiatrist, psychiatric nurse practitioner or physician assistant reviews your history, symptoms and overall health to help determine the best course of treatment.

Treatment may include medication, health tests or referrals to other types of support. Providers monitor your progress, adjust treatment as needed and follow up with you over time. Many psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners provide both therapy and medical care. Others focus on medication management and work closely with your therapist or other members of your care team. Medical care and medication management are often used alongside therapy to support overall well-being.

Intensive outpatient program

An intensive outpatient program (IOP) helps people who need more support than weekly therapy, but don’t need to stay in a hospital. In an IOP, you go to therapy several times a week, often in groups. After each session, you go home the same day.
