Targeted Care

Our mental health clinic offers targeted care. Targeted care helps us give you the right mental health support for your specific needs, whether it’s an individual appointment, group therapy or non-clinical support.

How it Works

Targeted care synchronizes and expands the resources we have to address your specific needs. The process begins with a preliminary assessment.
You’ll meet with a technician who will:

• Listen to your concerns.
• Assess your needs.
• Match you to the best resource.
• Options may include an appointment with:
