Behavioral Health Services

Starting with draft deferral services in the 60s and volunteer therapists helping our patients overcome difficult times, we have always believed that mental and emotional health is just as important as physical health. Today, we offer a full range of behavioral health services at all three locations and offer referrals to community partners for food, housing, job training and other social services.

Healthcare that’s not just for emergencies

If you’ve always waited until something is really wrong to go to the doctor (or the emergency room), the Saban Community Clinic will be a refreshing surprise. Not only do we look after the long-term health of you and your family, we treat every patient like a customer, figuring out how to best serve you.

Whole person care is about your whole life

Good health isn’t just a physical state. It’s also about your mental, emotional and social wellbeing. That’s why our “Whole Person Care” goes beyond the medical and the dental. We’ll work with you on a total health plan that fits your life, respects the challenges you’re facing, and helps you achieve your goals.

Your own care team and complete health plan

Your primary care provider will put together a care team that’s designed to fit your special situation. Together, we’ll create a plan to help you get better. Besides medical care, it might include nutrition, or help with anxiety or depression, or managing a chronic condition like diabetes, or prenatal care. It’s all about you.

Quality medicine made simple and convenient

Since we treat patients like customers, we’re always trying to improve our services. We’ve reduced wait-times, become more efficient, and continue to add offerings. We try to get more done for you in a single visit, such as blood tests, lab results and filling prescriptions at our pharmacy.

A nutrition and exercise plan that fits your life

If it’s important for you to lose weight, eat better and get more exercise, we learn what challenges you face in your neighborhood and family, and come up with a solution that makes sense.

From trauma counseling to mindfulness groups

Our behavioral health services are designed to help you get through tough times and feel positive about your life, with both one-on-one counseling and a variety of groups, including mindfulness training..

Alternative ways to help you heal

Our services include the best that Western medicine has to offer, from screenings to immunizations to treatment. In addition, we have practitioners of proven alternative methods such as acupuncture to help you heal.

Your advocate with insurers and more

If you don’t have insurance, you may be eligible for coverage. We will help you enroll in an insurance plan you’re eligible for. Often, our providers become patient advocates, helping you deal with insurers and government agencies

Cutting edge technology to deliver the highest levels of care

From advanced technology for diagnosis, to the use of newly FDA-approved medications, we’re on the cutting edge. With our secure MyChart system, you can go online to view your medical records, make appointments and renew prescriptions.
