Mental Health
Everyone reacts to stress and traumatic experiences differently. While some have reactions that can be seen as normal responses to life events, others may experience signs or symptoms of more serious conditions.
Mental health and substance use conditions can affect anyone;
you are not alone. The Military Health System has many resources available to help those who need it.
If you or someone you know needs support now, call or text 988 or chat at
988Lifeline.org. 988 connects you with a trained crisis counselor who can help.
Targeted Care
Our Mental (Behavioral) Health clinic offers targeted care. Targeted care helps us give you the right mental health support for your specific needs, whether it’s an individual appointment, group therapy or non-clinical support.
How it Works
Targeted care synchronizes and expands the resources we have available to address your specific needs. The process begins with a preliminary assessment.
You’ll meet with a behavioral health technician and a licensed provider who will:
- Provide you with resources in a group setting.
- Listen to your concerns.
- Assess your needs.
- Answer your questions.
- Match you to the best resource.
Options may include an appointment with:
- Licensed clinical mental health providers in our Behavioral Health Clinic
- Licensed psychiatrist in our Behavioral Health Clinic
- Licensed clinical mental health providers specializing in substance use treatment in our Behavioral Health Clinic
- IBHC- Internal Behavioral Health Consultant
- Military and Family Life Counselors (MFLAC)
- School-based Behavioral Health Counselors
- FAP-Family Advocacy Program Counselors
- A chaplain
You don’t need a referral, and you won’t be turned away or denied specialty care. Learn more about
Targeted Care.
