BRENTWOOD, TN / ACCESSWIRE / June 11, 2024 / Odyssey Behavioral Healthcare, a leading provider of addiction, mental health and eating disorder treatment, is pleased to announce that STR Behavioral Health will expand access to mental health services, with its Silver Pines location becoming dually licensed for primary mental health and substance use disorder treatment. Silver Pines is highly regarded for its expertise in primary addiction treatment services, and this expansion of services strengthens STR Behavioral Health’s commitment to addressing the unmet need for quality mental health care in the region.
Silver Pines Residential
According to the latest data from the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Pennsylvania:
- Approximately 20% of adults suffer from a mental illness, and 39.8% of adults report symptoms of anxiety or depression.
- 447,000 adults have a serious mental illness.
- Of those who reported mental health symptoms, 25.7% did not receive the treatment they needed.
“The need for excellent mental health and addiction treatment services continues to grow in Pennsylvania,” said Odyssey CEO Richard Clarke. “This expansion of services in Silver Pines underscores our commitment to addressing the complex mental health needs of our clients through accessible, high-quality, evidence-based care.”
Silver Pines now offers a dedicated eight-bed unit for patients needing residential mental health treatment. These beds will be integrated into an individualized, intimate patient care environment for addiction treatment, addressing the high rate of patients with co-occurring mental health disorders.
Over the past two years, STR Behavioral Health has continued to address treatment gaps in the area by expanding its outpatient service network to treat mental health, addiction and dual diagnosis conditions. Additionally, the Cedar Creek Campus, a 30-bed mental health residential treatment facility, is set to open this summer to further address the largely unavailable mental health needs in the region.
