About Us
Lake Behavioral Hospital
Lake Behavioral Hospital offers comprehensive, specialized mental health programs for adolescents, adults, and older adults. After an initial evaluation, we develop an individualized treatment plan that may involve inpatient, partial hospitalization and/or intensive outpatient treatment. Our compassionate and experienced team of psychiatrists, licensed therapists, nurses and support staff are here to create an atmosphere of health, hope, and healing.
Lake Behavioral Hospital has a very clear goal: to help people live healthier lives. Since a mental health crisis can severely impact everyday life, we help our patients and families regain their balance. We treat patients who experience thoughts of suicide, grief, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse, and help them maneuver through the crisis and into recovery. We work to restore a positive emotional state and health by teaching communication, coping skills and self-awareness.
Our patients can expect a safe, caring environment with trained physicians, nurses, counselors and technicians who will provide outstanding care for you, your loved one or your client.
