Behavioral Health

ChristianaCare’s Behavioral Health Services offers both the connection to a full-service health system and the personalized care you need for effective treatment of mental illnesses. Whether you seek therapy sessions to relieve anxiety or need a hospital stay to cope with a psychiatric crisis, ChristianaCare has the resources to help you.

Our experienced therapeutic team incorporates the latest research and techniques into its care and offers Delaware’s first transcranial magnetic stimulation unit for the treatment of depression. Our team’s connections to a vast network of medical professionals also ensure your underlying medical problems get attention, and behavioral specialists are available to help you cope with emotional problems arising from cancer, heart failure and pregnancy.

Our integrated model of care embeds mental health therapists in primary care practices. The advantage of seeing a therapist and a primary care physician in the same practice enables greater focus on wellness, prevention and whole person care. This approach to care brings the right level of care to the right person, in the right place at the right time.

Our Adolescent and Adult Bridge Programs give teens and adults rapid access to individualized evaluation, care planning and therapy. When appropriate, patients transfer to community-based or primary care providers.

Our commitment is to provide you the full range of mental health services in a caring, patient-centered environment.
