Welcome to Behavioral Health at MedStar Union Memorial Hospital

MedStar Health is proud to offer behavioral health services. As a reflection of our commitment to our patients, their loved ones and caregivers, we have developed collaborative relationships with various service providers and community professionals to offer a comprehensive approach to treating individuals seeking care for behavioral health, psychiatric difficulties, emotional challenges, substance use challenges, and more.

Using a multidisciplinary approach, our team of psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, social workers, clinical counselors, nurses, and peer recovery coaches provide comprehensive, compassionate care. We work closely with patients and their loved ones to develop tailored care plans that foster healing for patients and their families. This includes identifying resources that offer support for patients and their loved ones.

If you or a loved one family member is struggling with mental illness, behavioral health issues, or addiction, you are not alone. Our team of professionals are available to help. We treat patients 18 and older and behavioral health services are provided on-site, or virtually depending on need or preference.

Outpatient Treatment Services

The outpatient behavioral health programs offers a variety of treatment interventions geared towards helping patient reduce or manage behavioral health symptoms in an outpatient setting.

Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programs

The partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs are intended to reduce psychiatric symptoms and prevent an inpatient hospital stay. This structured environment includes diagnostic and medical evaluation, group psychotherapy, multidisciplinary group modalities, and, if necessary, medication therapy.
