What should I expect during behavioral health treatment?

During a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, your EnVIGOR Health Medical and Behavioral Center specialist reviews your medical history, symptoms, lifestyle habits, thoughts, mood, emotions, and more. They also check your vital signs, complete a physical exam, and may recommend blood tests or additional diagnostic testing to detect underlying medical issues.

During behavioral health treatment, you meet with a mental health specialist one-on-one, in a group setting, or during couples or family counseling. You might meet with them once weekly or as needed. Your therapist uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and other effective methods to help you alter your behavior and thought patterns.

It’s also important to take any medications as directed, eat nutritious foods, get regular exercise and plenty of sleep, try stress reduction strategies, and avoid smoking and alcohol misuse.

Your provider follows up with you to ensure your behavioral health treatment is effective, and they adjust your treatment plan whenever needed.
