Behavioral Health

Services

Adult and child Behavioral Health therapy and medication management: Individual counseling; marriage and family counseling, Substance use treatment, Educational and Developmental Intervention Services (EDIS), School-Based Behavioral Health (middle school and high school), and Family advocacy services are available.

Current Access to Care

We are currently only available to see all Active Duty and their Family Members for all services listed above (except the School-Based Behavioral Health providers who can see anyone enrolled in DEERS).

School-Based Behavioral Health

If your child is in high school or middle school, and would like to speak with a therapist, please call 590-1615 and leave your contact information with the front desk staff. The school-based behavioral health provider will then contact you to arrange an appointment time. Our high school provider is currently taking new patients while the middle school provider is expected to begin seeing patients by 1 April.

If there is an acute safety emergency, please bring your child directly to the Behavioral Health clinic or the Bad Cannstatt Hospital [Priessnitzweg 24, 70374 Stuttgart; Ph: 0711-27802].

Call 06371-9464-1615 to get the latest update on our availability (see below).

Active Duty are NOT authorized to see Behavioral Health providers off-Post but may utilize any of the on-Post resources below or be seen by a provider in one of the other military clinics in Germany via video teleconference (VTC), which can be arranged through the primary care or Behavioral Health clinic.

Decisions about opening access to the clinic for non-Active Duty patients are based on the clinic’s ability to meet the MEDCOM access to care standards of 7 days for any new intake as well as regular follow up appointments. Taking care of Active Duty is our primary mission. The inability to meet the access to care standard means that we may be unable to take care of non-Active Duty patients. However, if the standard can be met, our next priority is Active Duty family members, then Retirees and their family members, and finally DA Civilians and Contractors, as space permits. Our goal is to provide quality Behavioral Health care which depends on our ability to meet the time demands of treatment.

For those not eligible for care in the Behavioral Health clinic, there are on and off-post resources available which one can access through the ISOS at the bottom of this page.

IMPORTANT: If you have been denied the ability to PCS here because of EFMP, you MUST go through the EFMP office for any questions about why you were denied. We are not authorized to answer questions about available services within this context.

If you believe that you, or another person, may be at an immediate risk because of an emotional crisis, please contact the Stuttgart Military Police: CIV: 0711-680-5261/5262 DSN: 430-5262, or go to the nearest hospital emergency room.
