At Neighborhood HealthSource, we realize being healthy mentally and emotionally is just as important as having a healthy body. Behavioral healthcare can be expensive and hard to access, especially for people without health insurance.
That’s why we offer a variety of behavioral health services at our clinics. We also offer treatment for substance abuse, including Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT). Patients can pay for behavioral health services on the same income-based sliding fee scale we use for medical services.
Please note: Due to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak in our communities, most behavioral health appointments are being held as telehealth visits. This means that instead of coming in to the clinic, you will meet with a behavioral health provider over the phone or via HIPAA-compliant video chat. If you have questions or want to schedule a behavioral health appointment, please call us at 612-588-9411.

Therapy
Our therapists meet with teens and adults in individual, couples, or family settings for ongoing therapy. They can address conditions such as:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Trauma
- Hallucinations
- Bipolar disorder
- Mental health with substance abuse concerns
Telepsychiatry
We work remotely with a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner to connect current Neighborhood HealthSource patients with psychiatric evaluation and care on a referral basis. The psychiatric practitioner does assessments and helps manage medication for patients ages five years and older. A telepsychiatry appointment is like any other appointment at the clinic, except the provider is communicating with you via video chat. Video chats are secure and privacy-compliant. Telepsychiatry services are available for current Neighborhood HealthSource patients only.
Make an appointment with one of our medical providers for initial assessment and referral.
Primary Care
Our primary care providers can treat and prescribe medication for patients with anxiety and depression. Our primary care providers are trained in Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT). This is a process for identifying possible mental health concerns in patients being seen for medical care and connecting them to a behavioral health provider. Several of our primary care providers are also certified
Suboxone providers.
Substance Abuse Treatment
Neighborhood HealthSource employs a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC) to help patients with substance abuse issues. The LADC completes a comprehensive assessment, develops a treatment plan, and works with patients to connect them with resources. The LADC works in all of our clinics alongside our
behavioral health and primary medical providers, so the full range of healthcare support is easily accessible to patients being treated for substance abuse.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
We have several certified Suboxone providers available to current Neighborhood HealthSource patients with opioid use disorder. Patients in the Suboxone program can work with our Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselor and our behavioral health team for ongoing counseling and support. Several of our primary care providers and our telepsychiatrist can prescribe medications for substance abuse, including Naltrexone, Vivitrol, and Antabuse.
Peer Recovery Coaching
We have a Peer Recovery Coach on staff who works with patients one on one to guide them through the recovery process. A Recovery Coach can connect patients with community resources, remove barriers to recovery, and be a needed support during this challenging process.
