Integrated Behavioral Health
Integrated behavioral health is a holistic approach that combines mental health services with primary healthcare. This means that doctors and mental health professionals work together to treat the whole person, addressing both physical and emotional well-being. The goal is to improve overall health outcomes by recognizing how mental health affects physical health and vice versa. Patients receive comprehensive care that may include therapy, medication management, and lifestyle support—all coordinated among providers. This approach helps reduce stigma around mental health, ensures timely intervention, and improves access to care for individuals who may need both types of support.
