Adult Mental Health

The Adult Mental Health Services Division provides an array of services to adults 18 years of age and older who are suffering from severe depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorders or any other serious emotional symptoms that interfere with their daily activities. Treatment is individually designed to meet the specific needs of each consumer while promoting independence.

Payment for Services - TTBH accepts many insurance plans including Medicaid and MediCare. Many services are available on a sliding fee scale, and TTBH will not refuse services to a person based on their inability to pay.
