The DHHS Adult Behavioral Health Program is an outpatient mental health service designed to support low-income residents of Montgomery County who are experiencing serious mental illness and face barriers to accessing the public mental health system due to factors such as immigration status, income level, or lack of public benefits.
The program offers a range of services, including individual and group psychotherapy, office-based case management, psychiatric evaluations, and medication monitoring. It also supports individuals in special circumstances, such as those recently discharged from psychiatric hospitals or incarceration, individuals involved with other health and human service agencies, and those who have not had success with treatment in the public mental health system.
Additionally, the program provides psychoeducation and group counseling for clients with co-occurring disorders, such as major depression and substance or alcohol use. Clients with severe substance use or dependency issues are referred to a higher level of care.
The goal of the Adult Behavioral Health Program is to improve behavioral health outcomes and enhance clients' ability to function adaptively within the community. Many staff members are bilingual in Spanish and English or Vietnamese and English, and interpretation services are available through the Language Line to ensure accessible communication for all clients.
