Outpatient Mental Health Clinic
The main door into mental health care here, with an extensive range of services for children, adolescents, adults and older adults facing mental health and co-occurring disorder challenges.
The nature of a person's mental health condition decides what kind of care they need, so what happens after the first assessment is set per patient rather than by program.
Ages 3+

What the condition needs decides the care
Nobody is placed in a program before an assessment. What follows it is drawn from everything here, in whatever combination the diagnosis and the plan call for, not from a fixed track.

Which one depends on your household size and income against the federal poverty guidelines, not on a conversation you have to have twice. The scale is published, it is applied before you are booked in, and benefits are verified free of charge so the number is settled before your first visit.
Clients are never denied services because of an inability to pay current or past fees.

Full fees are $35 individual and $75 group. Insurance is billed first where you have it, Medicare, Cigna and Optum among the plans accepted, and the scale applies to what is left.
What the first three weeks look like
No patient is placed in a program before an assessment, and no assessment happens before we have told you what it will cost.
Days 1–2
Intake call and benefits check
A coordinator confirms eligibility, verifies your insurance, and schedules your appointment. If you are unable to pay, a sliding-scale discount is applied and you are told the cost before anything is scheduled.
Week 1
Clinical assessment
A licensed clinician completes the biopsychosocial evaluation, covering history, medications and risk screening, then issues a provisional diagnosis with an ASAM level of care.
Weeks 2–3
Treatment plan in motion
You start with the prescriber and therapist who will stay with you, and the plan is reviewed at every update as your level of care steps up or down.
