MENTAL HEALTH DISORDER TREATMENT

Mental health disorders are a wide range of conditions that can affect mood, thinking, and behavior. Some drain people of their motivation, while others push people to make risky choices, but all get in the way of living life.

We offer medication to lessen these symptoms, and personalized therapy to help identify unhealthy thought patterns and teach sustainable ways to overcome mental health disorders.

ONLINE TELEHEALTH SERVICES

Our online telehealth services use a confidential, HIPAA-compliant video platform so patients can reap the benefits of our dedicated treatment from the comfort of home. Our doctors and counselors schedule appointments six days a week, with same-day options available, so patients can access the care and support they deserve when they need it most.

Online Mental Health Treatment

Online Mental Health Treatment

Following a comprehensive assessment, our Mental Health Director will make an official mental health disorder diagnosis and develop an individualized treatment plan based on a patient’s unique needs and goals. From there, we conduct regular virtual check-ins, monitor medications, and adjust our care as a patient’s needs evolve.

Online Mental Health Counseling

Online Mental Health Counseling

Patients will have an opportunity to connect with our experienced team of licensed counselors for virtual counseling sessions as part of their mental health treatment plan. Teletherapy is offered in a private one-on-one setting, as well as in small groups for those who would benefit from a supportive peer environment.

Online Suboxone Treatment

Online Suboxone Treatment

Mental health disorders are often accompanied by a substance use disorder (SUD), which is why we address both in tandem. For those suffering with an addiction to opioids, we offer online Suboxone treatment and substance abuse counseling to help them bypass traditional detox and transition into recovery more easily.

Testimonials

“This place has been a blessing from day one. As a mother of 3, it’s not always the easiest to get away from the kiddos. I love the fact that I don’t have to leave my home to meet with my therapist. The online counseling aspect is really convenient and was honestly the only way for me to get the help I needed. I plan on continuing my monthly sessions because I keep seeing more growth and positive change in myself each time.”

– A.T.

“Depression controlled my life for a very long time, and up until a few months ago I was hopeless of that ever changing. KAV helped me find balance again. They helped me find peace. I rediscovered what being happy feels like. Though I still have bad days, I now have the tools and support systems to get me through them. I finally feel in control of my life again, and for that I am grateful.”

– J.C.

“I started feeling really anxious and depressed after the birth of my first child, which was when one of my close friends told me about KAV. My first visit with the doctor was great. She asked me a lot of questions, was super attentive, and gave me the time to talk through my issues. I could tell that she genuinely cared about trying to help me. We talked about different medication options and she suggested therapy. I was hesitant at first, but I’m really glad I said yes because my counselor has really helped me explore all this new anxiety. It changes every day with a baby, but I do feel like I’m in such a better place now, and so much more available for my daughter.”

-E.M.

“Pain pills took me down a really dark path for many years. I’ve been to rehab several times, but could never stay clean for long after I got out. I thank the doctors and counselors at KAV every day for helping me turn my life around. It hasn’t been easy, but I’ve been sober for 14 months and have the belief in myself that it will stay that way. Most importantly, I can be the father and husband my family needs. Thank you KAV — you all truly saved my life!!!”

– J.K.

“Paying attention for long periods of time has been a struggle for as long as I can remember. It’s made things like school…relationships…holding down a job…etc pretty tough. Prior to coming here I’d heard of ADHD but never really looked into it…but after just a few visits my doctor and counselor helped me better understand it and get it under control. It’s been a really good experience so far…I only wish I would’ve pursued getting help like this sooner.”
