Behavioral Health

The IHA Collaborative Care Behavioral Health Program works with patients who may have anxiety and/or depression at several of our locations. We are right here in your office! Our team is made up of a Behavioral Health Specialist, your doctor and a psychiatrist who talks with your doctor and Behavioral Health Specialist. We all work together to help improve your overall well-being. About once a month the Behavioral Health Specialist will call you or meet in the doctor’s office to check in, ask about your mood symptoms and they may discuss how your medication(s) are working. We use questionnaires to help track changes in your symptoms. If you are part of this program, the Behavioral Health Specialist works with you to build skills and techniques to better manage your depression and/or anxiety. If you are interested in using medication to help control your symptoms, our team psychiatrist will talk to your Behavioral Health Specialist and your doctor to figure out the best treatment options.
