Overview

Every day stress affects our mental well-being. Pressures from work and home can leave us full of anxiety, feeling overwhelmed and hopeless. Unless these feelings are dealt with, they can lead to depression and self-defeating behaviors. In some cases, stress can make it difficult or practically impossible to function when combined with mental illness. There is hope and support for dealing with self-defeating thinking and behavior in both cases.

Providence Behavioral Health Services offers a comprehensive range of therapy and counseling to help people recover and regain their lives. Our mental health treatment programs help people develop stress management tools and coping skills to deal with emotional crisis. For critical situations our inpatient and outpatient programs treat a wide variety of mental disorders with safe and compassionate care.

Most mental disorders can be effectively resolved through outpatient programs, such as Partial Hospital or Intensive Outpatient treatment (formerly referred to as “Day Treatment” or “Day Hospital”), by our mental health professionals who specialize in group and individual therapy as well as cognitive and other intensive therapies. We also offer art therapy when appropriate.

Our approach to mental health treatment is conducted by staff and physicians who follow a multidisciplinary program that focuses on the whole person – physical, spiritual, psychological and social. From our convenient Portland locations, we assess and treat various types of mental illness including:

  • Depression and other mood disorders
