Just minutes from Lake Kittamaqundi’s peaceful waterfront and a short ride from live events at Merriweather Post Pavilion, this center is conveniently accessible by Columbia’s RTA bus network or a quick drive. The center supports children, teens, adults, and older adults facing conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance use disorder, and more through outpatient, day treatment, and telehealth services. Using a person-centered approach, the care team provides therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), group therapy, and medication management. These treatments work together to reduce symptoms, teach coping strategies, and improve emotional and daily life skills. Clinicians adjust each plan to match the client’s age, goals, and challenges, ensuring care stays personal and effective. Clients have access to unique programs like employment counseling through the individual placement and support (IPS) model, which helps people with mental illness find and keep jobs. The center also offers psychiatric rehabilitation day programs focused on building life skills, as well as family psychoeducation to support loved ones. These services promote growth, stability, and meaningful progress in everyday life.
