Behavioral Health Services & Treatment
Behavioral health is the umbrella term for mental health and substance use care. Many people need both at the same time — for example, a person managing depression alongside alcohol use disorder. Integrated behavioral health clinics treat both together, which generally produces better outcomes than treating them separately.
This directory lists outpatient behavioral health clinics, residential treatment programs, sober living homes, intensive outpatient programs (IOP), partial hospitalization programs (PHP), and community-based behavioral health centers across the United States.
