Mental & Behavioral Health

Why Choose Baptist Health?

Baptist Health is proud to offer compassionate behavioral health services to you and your loved ones. Our dedicated teams, which include psychiatrists, nurses, counselors, social workers, and support staff, are highly trained and experienced in mental health practices to effectively meet the needs of our patients.

Our mission is to provide comprehensive treatment for individuals seeking stabilization and an improved quality of life through the best available mental health care. Our modern facilities in Central Alabama offer a safe and comfortable environment that fosters positive change and growth in our patients' behavioral and mental wellness.

Who We Serve

Recent statistics show that one in five individuals will experience a significant mental or emotional issue, and one in ten will need hospitalization. Various environmental and genetic factors contribute to the development of these conditions.

Mental and emotional illnesses can affect anyone, regardless of gender, race, or financial status. Like other health problems, untreated mental health issues tend to worsen over time. At Baptist Health, we regard mental health with the same seriousness as physical health and encourage our patients to seek treatment and care, just as they would for a physical ailment. Baptist Health is committed to helping you and your loved ones face mental health challenges directly, offering state-of-the-art treatment with board-certified specialists in supportive environments.
