Baylor Understands What You're Going Through
Mental or behavioral health is important to one's overall health and wellness. Early signs and symptoms of a psychiatric illness or addictive disorder may not be recognized until they begin to disrupt your everyday life. A behavioral health crisis can be frightening and confusing for you and your family. When you don't know where to turn, we are here to help.
Baylor treats approximately 2,000 adults (18 years of age and over) per year for psychiatric and/or addictive disorders. Our treatment programs effectively combine cognitive-behavioral therapy groups, education groups and medications to help you learn new skills for a healthy lifestyle.
