Behavioral Health

Mental and behavioral health care for the whole person

Our approach to behavioral and mental health care

We know that mental health care is critical to helping people navigate all kinds of relationships — in our families and with loved ones, among co-workers and with classmates.

That's why we take a highly personalized approach to care, focused on you as a whole person, fully considering your physical, emotional, social and spiritual well-being. We offer services in person and virtually, as well as in home, school and community settings.

At the core of our approach are:

  • personalization: We offer a wide range of services, from therapy and counseling to medication management and support groups. We'll work together to find the right combination for you.
  • team focus: Our team of experienced professionals includes psychiatrists, psychologists and master’s level counselors. We stay in sync with one another to provide you with the best possible care.
  • human-guided technology: We view technology as a useful tool in the hands of our empathetic experts. Here, tech doesn't lead — it powerfully supports.
  • safety: Your safety and support are always our top priorities. We have a zero-tolerance policy for abuse or neglect in any form.

Proudly integrating with primary care and specialty care

Our behavioral health practitioners are embedded with many of WellSpan’s primary care offices as well as certain specialty care practices:

  • Maternity care: Helping moms struggling with postpartum depression
  • Heart and vascular: Improving recovery for surgical patients
  • Pain management: Complementing medical interventions
