Behavioral Health & Wellness Services
To schedule an appointment with a Behavioral Health Consultant or the Health & Wellness Clinic, please talk with your primary care provider (PCP). A PCP referral is required before an appointment can be scheduled.
Behavioral Health Consultants
Santiam Hospital & Clinics has integrated Behavioral Health Consultants (BHCs) as part of your healthcare team. A Behavioral Health Consultant works collaboratively with you and your medical providers to support healthy lifestyle changes and help you achieve goals that improve your overall well-being, including your physical, emotional, and behavioral health.
Behavioral Health Consultants provide short-term support for patients facing challenges related to chronic health conditions such as diabetes, chronic pain, COPD, and other medical concerns. They also help individuals identify and achieve personal wellness goals, including increasing motivation to lose weight, quit smoking, become more physically active, manage stress, improve sleep, and make other positive lifestyle changes.
Behavioral Health Consultants can also help patients connect with counseling services and community resources that best fit their individual needs. By working together, we aim to help you build healthy habits, overcome barriers, and improve your quality of life.
Health & Wellness Clinic
Santiam Hospital & Clinics’ Health & Wellness Clinic offers specialized mental health services through our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners (PMHNPs). PMHNPs are advanced practice providers who evaluate, diagnose, and treat a wide range of mental health conditions. They work closely with patients to develop individualized treatment plans and provide medication management, education, and ongoing support to help patients achieve their mental health goals.
The Health & Wellness Clinic complements the care provided by your primary care team by offering access to specialized psychiatric services and additional support for emotional and mental well-being. Our goal is to provide compassionate, comprehensive care that promotes whole-person health and wellness.
