United Helpers Behavioral Health Clinic hosts ribbon cutting in Ogdensburg

Posted

OGDENBSURG - The United Helpers Mosaic Behavioral Health Clinic officially celebrated its grand opening on Thursday with a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by company officials local politicians.

The clinic, located at 221 Hamilton St. offers confidential mental health services to treat and diagnose those suffering from depression, anxiety and anger, sexual and/or physical abuse, chronic mental illness, post-traumatic stress disorder or co-occurring disorders.

“Our mission at United Helpers is to serve our community and to help those in need. Our new clinic came from our recognition of the need for additional outpatient mental health services in our community,” said Mosaic Administrator Michele M. Montroy. “We are proud to add this clinic to our existing continuum of services, and to further the mission of United Helpers.”

The continuum of services is something that Behavior Health Services Coordinator Angela Doe said is important.

As the newest addition to the United Helpers services, Doe said, “this clinic will provide increased access to quality mental health services for our most deserving residents and their families. Individuals seeking mental health services may call to schedule an appointment or may walk in for an assessment," she said.

The United Helpers Mosaic services for people with mental illness also includes care management, supported housing with case management services, intensive supportive housing, service coordination and Assertive Community Treatment (ACT).

The clinic, which is licensed to provide children’s therapy, will also offer individual, group or family therapy, as well as psycho education, psychiatric diagnostic assessments, psychiatric medication management, care coordination, coping skills training and wellness promotion for people of all ages.

To schedule an appointment, or for further information, call 541-3042. Most third-party payers, insurance plans and Medicaid will be accepted and no one will be refused services based on their inability to pay for care.

The clinic is open 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, with after-hours appointments available as-needed.
