Understand the Importance of Behavioral Health
Behavioral Health is a how the body reacts to our behaviors. Sometimes this can be a link between mental illness, and other times it is connected to substance use.
At SVH, we take a holistic approach to mental wellness through counseling and medication, and through the experience of our providers, we consider each patient an individual with individual needs and treatments. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Creating a healthy community is providing a strong base for wellness and much of that begins with our mental health.
We treat patients ages 8 and older.
