What Conditions Does Behavioral Health Centers Treat?

Updated

Behavioral Health Centers (BHC) treats substance use and addiction alongside mental health disorders, including cases where both are present at the same time. According to the center's own program description, its care covers drug and alcohol detox, psychiatric conditions such as depression and anxiety, and co-occurring disorders addressed through a dual diagnosis treatment program. It is a rehab center located in Port Saint Lucie, Florida.

Substance Use and Addiction

BHC describes addiction treatment as part of its core services, with drug and alcohol detox named as a conventional recovery method that its other therapies complement. The site frames this within a broader treatment model rather than detox alone.

What the program lists in this area:

  • Drug and alcohol detox
  • Evidence-based treatment modalities
  • Alternative and holistic therapies used alongside conventional recovery methods

The stated aim of the holistic side is to identify underlying causes of substance abuse and address withdrawal symptoms and related physical, psychological, biological, and environmental factors as early as possible.

Mental Health Disorders

BHC provides comprehensive psychiatric care, which the site breaks into specific components:

  • A one-on-one initial psychiatric assessment
  • Ongoing weekly psychiatric follow-up appointments
  • Medication evaluation and management
  • Psychological and central nervous system (CNS) testing

Depression and anxiety are the mental health conditions named directly in the center's description of co-occurring disorders.

Co-Occurring Disorders (Dual Diagnosis)

A person with both a substance use problem and a mental health disorder at the same time is described by BHC as having a co-occurring disorder. The center's position is that one condition can contribute to or worsen the other, so treating them together is more effective than treating either alone.

Its dual diagnosis treatment program is presented as integrated and comprehensive care intended to address and manage both conditions. This connects to the center's broader use of integrated medical care — also called coordinated care — which it describes as a systematic approach to coordinating diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation across medical services.

How the Program Is Structured

Beyond specific conditions, BHC lists services that shape how treatment is delivered:

Service What it involves, per the site

Insurance and Access Notes

BHC states that it accepts most insurance and offers a way to check coverage through its site. It also states explicitly that it does not accept Medicare or Medicaid. If you are relying on either of those programs, this center would not be a fit on that basis alone.

For immediate questions, the site lists a phone number: 772-774-3872.

Deciding Whether BHC Matches a Specific Situation

Use these conditions to judge fit:

  • Substance use, mental health, or both — BHC's stated scope covers all three, with dual diagnosis for the combined case.
  • Need for psychiatric medication management — the program includes evaluation, management, and weekly follow-up.
  • Medicare or Medicaid as payment — not accepted, per the site.
  • Location — the center is in Port Saint Lucie, Florida; the site does not describe satellite locations.

The site does not list specific treatable diagnoses beyond depression and anxiety, nor does it publish pricing. For anything more specific — particular substances, specific diagnoses, or length of stay — contact the center directly rather than assuming coverage from the general service list.
