Mesa Mental Health Services

Mental Health Services in Mesa

In 2023, nearly 36% of adults in Arizona experienced symptoms of an anxiety and/or depressive disorder. That means for every three adults you know, one of them is likely managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, or both.

Additionally, 20% of American adolescents experienced at least one major depressive episode in 2021. Less than half of them received treatment – even among the 15% whose episodes severely impaired their life.

With statistics like these, it’s likely you know someone living with unpleasant, untreated mental health symptoms. Maybe it’s someone you love. Maybe it’s you.

Lifeline Behavioral Health can help. We work every day to change statistics like these for the better by providing community and quality counseling to Arizonans in need.

Why Choose Lifeline Behavioral Health

At Lifeline Behavioral Health, we pride ourselves on creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where individuals of all ages and backgrounds can heal. When we say that, we mean it: we offer treatment for all ages, from zero to one hundred years old. Our team is well-qualified to encourage veterans who have experienced trauma, and walk alongside LGBTQIA+ individuals as they navigate their identity and the challenges that come with it. We offer care for those among us who have complex mental health conditions and are too often misunderstood, and for people who are afraid their concerns are too “minor” for them to seek help.

We want to bring behavioral healthcare and mesa mental health services to everyone, including individuals across Arizona who can’t make it to our counseling center in Mesa. That’s why we offer telehealth options, too.

Why Choose Lifeline Behavioral Health

Everyone is different. We all have unique experiences that work together and make us who we are. Because of that, some programs work for some people and not for others. We offer a variety of options because we want everyone who comes to Lifeline Behavioral Health for care to find the hope and encouragement they need.

Counseling is the most important aspect of all of our programs. Individual counseling and group counseling both have a role to play in overcoming any mental health concern. This is why we offer both, covering a variety of concepts. If your entire family needs to heal, family counseling is also available. Through counseling, you’ll learn to understand your thoughts and feelings and how to change them in positive ways. You’ll also find healthy ways to cope and learn skills to assist you in every area of life.

Our counseling starts as early as necessary. Some children face trauma before they can even speak, and our team can address it and help them heal before the hurtful events they’ve experienced take a toll on their mental health long term. We can also diagnose and treat conditions ADHD while children are still young. We have programs for children as they age, too, with different options for preteens, adolescents, and young adults alike. Youth will work alongside our therapists and like-minded peers to tackle the subjects most relevant to their age group, building community and promoting positive growth.

If you’ve been ordered to participate in classes or counseling by a court, we can help you, too. We work with local courts to make sure we provide the services they require. This includes substance use counseling, anger management classes, and more. We’re dedicated to creating a space where everyone can heal and grow without judgment.

Our therapy groups focus on different topics, and you have a variety to choose from! We have unique groups for adults covering cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), women’s wellness, men’s manspeak, maintaining long-term recovery from substance use, parenting, veterans’ and first responders’ challenges, and health anxiety. Adolescents have their own groups, including a DBT group, teen empowerment group, cognitive skills group, and general mental health group.

A Look at Our Program Options

Our intensive outpatient program (IOP) is an option for both teens and adults at Lifeline Behavioral Health. Those in IOP will choose three of our therapy groups, and attend those groups and an individual therapy session weekly. IOP usually lasts four or eight weeks, but this timeline isn’t set in stone. It’s most important to us that you receive all the support you need, and we’ll work with you as long as you need us.

We also have a partial hospitalization program (PHP) for anyone seeking structured, intensive treatment. PHP requires you to spend most of your day with us, participating in counseling and other therapeutic interventions. You’ll return home at night. If being away from home would benefit you, we also offer onsite housing for those in our PHP. All of our PHP is carefully tailored to each client, ensuring you receive the comprehensive, compassionate care you deserve.

Common Mental Health Concerns We Treat at Our Mental Health Clinic

We believe one of our biggest strengths at Lifeline Behavioral Health is our ability to tackle any concern with anyone. No matter who you are, the condition you have, or the topic you need support for – we’re here for you. The primary concerns we address are below.

ADHD

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder – more commonly known as ADHD – is a behavioral health disorder that affects millions of children and adults each year. Those living with ADHD will have a more difficult time concentrating and have higher levels of impulsivity and hyperactivity. Though the condition cannot be cured, with proper therapy and medication, it can be managed. Lifeline provides all the tools needed to treat ADHD.

Substance Use Disorder & Addiction

Substance use disorder (SUD) is considered a mental health condition according to the DSM-5. Treatment for SUD can include therapy, detox, rehab stays, and support groups. We also offer intensive outpatient therapy and outpatient therapy for those managing addiction or polysubstance use. Addiction can span beyond substance use, and our team can treat many different forms, including gambling, sex, food, and more.

Aging & Health

It is inevitable that we all age, and both physical and mental health can take a toll in the process. At Lifeline Behavioral Health, we provide guided therapy to give yourself grace and understand what is going on internally. Aging is beautiful, and we empower you to see the light within.

Anger Management

Anger is a natural emotion, and it is okay to feel angry at times. But when anger starts interfering with relationships, job performance, and everyday life, it may be time to think about seeking help. Our team of caring therapists will teach you to cope with anger in healthy ways and give you a better understanding of the emotions behind it.

Anxiety

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health conditions in adolescents, young adults, and adults. The condition can manifest in different ways and each person will have different triggers. Lifeline Behavioral Health inspires our clients through therapy and coping skill development to manage their anxiety in healthy and productive ways. In some cases, medication may also be utilized for treatment.

Behavioral Health Concerns

While not every behavioral health concern signals a disorder, we work with each client to discover the causes of the negative behaviors. Whether acting out from moving to a new place or a behavioral health disorder, our team will teach you how to navigate through the process of feeling like yourself again.

Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that can affect mood in drastic ways. This can include episodes of 'highs' where the person feels emotionally charged and episodes of 'lows' where symptoms of depression are noticed. Cognitive behavioral therapy in an individual and group setting has proven to treat bipolar disorder, and both are offered at Lifeline Behavioral Health.

Depression

Like anxiety, depression is a very common mental health condition affecting numerous adults and adolescents each year. Depression can range from mild to severe and can make you feel like you are losing yourself. Lifeline Behavioral Health recognizes these feelings and treats the condition with medication, therapy, and support groups.

Domestic Violence

Lifeline Behavioral Health treats domestic violence (DV) from both sides. If you are a victim of DV, our team will work with you to heal from the past trauma and develop coping skills to move forward with your life. If you are a DV offender, we offer a non-judgmental space for you to address your emotions and work to manage them in a healthy way.

Gender & Sexual Identification

Understanding your gender and sexual identification can be confusing, and when you don’t have a safe place to express your feelings, your mental health can deteriorate. At Lifeline Behavioral Health, we pride ourselves in offering a non-judgemental safe space for you to explore and express your identity. We empower you to navigate the feelings you are experiencing and understand your gender and sexuality.

Grief & Loss

Grief and loss can occur at any time, and often when we are the least prepared. Lifeline Behavioral Health provides therapy for children and adults to process the trauma of loss and cope with feelings of grief. Group therapies also provide support through hearing and expressing emotions and similar stories.

Life Changes

Therapy and mental health treatment is not just for those who have a condition. An unexpected move to a new state, job loss, relationship changes, and financial strain can cause emotional responses and mood swings. Lifeline Behavioral Health offers therapy sessions for you to express your feelings to handle life changes in a positive way.

Medication Management

The dedicated team of medical professionals at Lifeline Behavioral Health provides management over any prescription medications. These can include antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, and many more. You will never have to worry about calling in refills or running out of your medication.

Mood Management

Understanding mood swings and changes can be frustrating, especially when they seem to come out of nowhere. At Lifeline Behavioral Health, we will work with you to understand what is going on and where these mood changes are coming from. Our goal is to teach you to manage your moods like a passing wave, not an uncontrollable tsunami.

Post-Divorce Challenges

After a divorce, it can seem impossible to figure out how to co-parent. Our team at Lifeline Behavioral Health offers a safe place for each parent to express their concerns without posing harm to the child(ren). This is especially important as constant fighting can cause trauma. We also work with the family as a whole to ensure everyone is on the same page moving forward.

PTSD

Those who have witnessed or experienced a traumatic event – physical/mental/emotional abuse, sudden death of a loved one, serious medical event, etc – can develop PTSD and have flashbacks or panic attacks associated with the trauma. Lifeline Behavioral Health understands how serious this condition can be, and provides extensive therapy to process, heal, and manage PTSD.

Serious Mental Illness (SMI)

Serious mental illnesses can range from anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, eating disorders, and personality disorders. In SMIs, the symptoms of the disorder have become so severe that functional impairment has occurred. However, this does not mean the condition is hopeless, and Lifeline Behavioral Health is well-equipped to handle these cases. We offer a wide range of therapies and medications that may not have been tried in the past, allowing the person to heal and feel like themselves again.

Stress

Coping with stress can be difficult, and when you feel like none of your usual reliefs are working, Lifeline Behavioral Health is here to help. Managing stress can take a toll on the body and mind, and we will work with you to develop a plan that works for you. Individual counseling can help you create a routine that allows you to live stress-free.

Trauma

When trauma is left untreated, it can grow into other mental health conditions and even manifest with physical aches and pains. Our compassionate team at Lifeline Behavioral Health specializes in addressing and healing traumas. With group and individual therapy, you will face your trauma head-on and take away the power it has over you.

Work-Life Balance

There is nothing wrong with being dedicated to your job, but when that job becomes what you eat, sleep, and do, your work-life balance is out of sync. Here at Lifeline Behavioral Health, we work with you to understand how crucial having your own time is to your mental and physical health. Creating routines, practicing self-care, and regular therapy can help you restore the balance between work and home life.

Insurance Coverage

Here at Lifeline Behavioral Health, we understand that paying for care is a number one concern. We accept many types of insurance plans, including:
