How do I access services?
We develop an individualized treatment plan based on information obtained through the comprehensive evaluation, and the goals and preferences of the person receiving services. The plan will address the person’s prevention, medical, and behavioral health needs.
The clinic provides services to anyone seeking help for a mental health or substance use condition, regardless of their diagnosis, place of residence, or ability to pay. We offer a financial assessment, which determines sliding scale fees and payment plans as needed.
