NORTHEAST PA — If you’re struggling with a mental health problem and live in Wayne or Pike, you can find help.
The Behavioral Health Center at Wayne Memorial Community Health Center (WMCHC) at the Stourbridge Professional Center in Honesdale provides a full range of behavioral and mental health services.
Individual, family, couples and group counseling are available, as are psychological evaluations and medication management.
The staff also treats those suffering from substance use disorders through the Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) program.
Due to provider staffing issues, the Behavioral Health Center is only taking new patients in the following categories:
Medication management—age 15 and up
Therapy—age nine and under
Medication-Assisted Treatment—all patients
WMCHC is actively recruiting providers to fill these positions.
The Stourbridge Professional Complex is located at 600 Maple Ave., Second Floor.
