For patients to get the best care possible, staff for primary care must have a basic understanding of behavioral health.
That’s why here at Healthy Option Clinic LLC, we integrate behavioral health into our approach to primary care. We can ensure that patients receive compassionate primary care and the mental health care in Parkville, MD, they need.
Mental health conditions are complex and require specialized training for treatment. Primary care physicians are not trained in managing these conditions; however, they can refer their patients to psychiatrists and other specialists if necessary. Because there is an increased risk of suicide with depression or bipolar disorder when left untreated — or when treated improperly — it is critical that any medical professional involved in a patient’s wellness look beyond physical symptoms and consider mental health.
We want to ensure you feel comfortable and cared for by our team of primary care providers. We aim to provide compassionate, personalized care for your wellness and health promotion. We understand how important it is for people to stay on top of their holistic health, so we’re here to help.
We provide a wide range of mental health services, including:
- Anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders
- Substance abuse disorders
- Eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa)
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after exposure to traumatic events such as combat; accidents; serious physical or sexual assault; or the sudden death of a loved one
