At Altru, we believe that health is more than simply physical health. Supporting
your health means promoting the overall wellness of your body, mind and
emotions. Through our behavioral health services, we provide transformative
care for a variety of mental health conditions.
Mental health challenges can significantly impact not just the life of
the individual, but the lives of their loved ones, friends and communities.
Our team-oriented approach to mental wellness brings a spectrum of specialists
and providers to support you.
Behavioral Health Clinic
At Altru's Behavioral Health Clinic, we offer comprehensive outpatient
treatment, professional assessment and therapy for individuals and families
who need mental health support. Our team of psychiatrists, psychotherapists
and nurse practitioners can provide a personalized plan combining various
modalities of therapy, medications and other treatments for conditions such as
depression,
post-traumatic stress, relationship issues, life transitions, grief and loss and
eating disorders.
Our clinic also offers an Intensive Outpatient Program as an alternative
to an inpatient setting. This program provides structured, intensive treatment
to address functional impairment stemming from a mental health disorder.
This program enables patients to participate in intensive treatment during
the day and return home at night.
Psychotherapy
Therapy is a highly effective treatment for many mental health conditions.
Our providers are skilled in different therapy modalities, including psychodynamic
therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy and the strength-based approach.
We provide therapy services for individuals, families and couples.
Appointments at the clinic, located at
Altru 860 Columbia, can be made through provider or self-referral. For more information or

For patients in need of a higher level of support, Altru’s inpatient
Behavioral Health Unit provides a structured, safe environment with therapeutic
care. Our multidisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, psychiatrists,
occupational therapists, social workers, case workers and other specialists
can provide stabilization, evaluation and treatment for mental health
crises and situations requiring intensive care.
Our behavioral health unit offers medical care, individual and group therapy,
occupational therapy and social work assessment and discharge planning.
We also offer a therapeutic school program for children and teens.
Case Management
Case managers provide support for chronic or complex situations where an
individual receives multiple services at Altru. Our case managers help
you with many of the problems related to mental illness, treatment and
stabilization.
Altru’s case managers are professionally trained to assess patients
and families’ holistic needs and to assist in accessing and coordinating
appropriate resources. Case workers ensure continuity of care by collaborating
with all your providers and referring you to appropriate community resources
at every stage of recovery.
