Behavioral Health encompasses all of the emotions and behaviors that affect your overall well-being. While things like depression or anxiety may easily come to mind for most, Behavioral Health refers to the broad spectrum of mental health as well as substance use disorders, life stressors and crises, and stress-related physical symptoms.
While many people are too nervous to talk about it during a visit with their primary care provider, asking for support comes with many benefits. As our community continues to face the growing challenges associated with Behavioral Health issues, our providers are here to support you or your loved ones throughout the journey.
At WhidbeyHealth, our integrated approach means that our primary care teams and behavioral clinicians work together with patients to provide patient-centered care using a systematic approach.
According to the American Medical Association, “integrating medical and behavioral health care services helps promote more accessible and equitable treatment of patients’ mental and physical health needs while reducing the stigma associated with behavioral health treatment.”
Our growing team of dedicated healthcare professionals will work with you to address any underlying causes of your symptoms to improve your outcomes and prevent worsening symptoms, while finding positive coping strategies to support growth and progress.
