Personalized, Compassionate Care

Mental health doesn’t show up as a single diagnosis — it shows up in daily life, relationships, sleep, focus, and how safe your body feels in the world. We support people navigating a range of concerns, always looking at the whole person rather than a checklist of symptoms.If you don’t see yourself reflected in a specific label, that’s okay. Many people come to us knowing how they feel, not what it’s called.

At Whole You Behavioral Health, we believe mental health care works best when it is thoughtful, collaborative, and rooted in understanding the whole person — not just symptoms on a checklist.We take time to listen carefully, consider context, and approach care with curiosity rather than assumptions. Treatment is shaped by your lived experience, your goals, and what feels sustainable in real life. Medication, when used, is one tool among many — not the default and never the only answer.Care is not rushed. Decisions are made together. And your voice matters throughout the process.

What We Offer

We provide thoughtful, individualized mental health care that adapts to your needs over time. Some people come seeking medication support, others want space to talk things through, and many benefit from a combination of approaches. Care is collaborative and adjusted as things evolve.

Psychiatric Evaluation & Ongoing Care

A comprehensive evaluation focused on understanding the full picture — not just symptoms. We take time to review history, current concerns, and goals, with ongoing follow-up to adjust care as needed.Includes diagnostic clarification, treatment planning, and continuity of care.

Medication Management

Medication can be a helpful tool for some people, at certain times. When used, it is approached thoughtfully, with careful monitoring and ongoing discussion about benefits, side effects, and alternatives.Never rushed. Always collaborative.

Therapy-Informed Care

Appointments include space to explore patterns, stressors, and coping strategies alongside medication or evaluation. While this is not weekly psychotherapy, visits are grounded in therapeutic principles such as CBT- and ACT-informed approaches, mindfulness, and emotional regulation.

Integrated/Blended Care

Many people benefit from a blended approach that includes both medication support and therapeutic work. Care is flexible and responsive — shifting focus as your needs change.

Care for Life Transitions

Support during periods of change, when symptoms often shift or intensify. This includes transitions related to stress, identity, parenting, perimenopause, career changes, or other major life events.

What to Expect

Appointments at Whole You Behavioral Health are collaborative, thoughtful, and paced with care. Whether you’re coming in for an evaluation, medication support, or ongoing care, each visit is centered on understanding your experience and supporting meaningful progress.

A Collaborative Approach

We’ll talk through what brings you in, your goals, and any relevant history so care can be tailored to you — not forced into a preset model. Decisions are made together, with room to adjust over time.

Space for Your Voice

You are always in control of what you share. We’ll ask thoughtful questions to help guide the conversation, but you decide what feels right to discuss.

Clarity Without Rush

Appointments move at a steady, respectful pace. You’ll leave with a clearer sense of direction and next steps, without feeling pressured or overwhelmed.

A Safe, Supportive Environment

Care is trauma-informed and grounded in respect, privacy, and trust. We aim to create a space where you can speak openly and feel heard.

Care That Adapts

Needs change — and care should too. Treatment may evolve over time, shifting focus as symptoms, goals, or life circumstances change.

Preparing for Your Appointment

There’s nothing special you need to do to prepare for your appointment. You don’t need a polished story, the right words, or a clear plan — just come as you are. We’ll take things one step at a time at your pace.

Choose a private space

Select a quiet, comfortable location where you can speak freely. For safety reasons, virtual appointments should not be attended while driving.

Check your technology

Please test your internet connection, camera, and microphone ahead of time. Headphones can help improve privacy.

Bring what helps you feel at ease

Water, a notepad, or anything that supports comfort and focus is welcome.

Reflect, or choose not to

You may find it helpful to think about what you’d like support with, but there’s no need to prepare a perfect summary. We’ll figure things out together.
