“It’s not a sign of weakness to ask for help. It’s really a sign of strength.” - Heather J.

When Heather struggled with the tragic loss of her husband, Mission Health’s Behavioral Health Outpatient Program stepped in to help her navigate this difficult and unexpected circumstance.

  • Life transitions
  • Stress
  • Depression
  • Grief + loss
  • Anger management
  • Trauma
  • Anxiety
  • Suicide prevention
  • And more
