Focus

This center treats mental health conditions and co-occurring substance use. You receive collaborative, individualized treatment that addresses both issues for whole-person healing.

Valley Behavioral Health System helps children, teens, adults, and seniors build a strong foundation for lasting recovery with a full continuum of psychiatric care. Their programs include inpatient treatment, day treatment (PHP), and intensive outpatient programs (IOP), allowing for smooth transitions as needs evolve. Located on 65 scenic acres near the Arkansas River, Valley provides a peaceful setting for healing, with youth programs that integrate education to support long-term success. Valley Behavioral Health creates personalized care plans based on thorough assessments at admission. A team of therapists, psychiatrists, and nurses provides individual, group, and family therapy, along with medication management and recreational therapy. Treatment includes trauma-focused, cognitive, and experiential therapies that help clients process difficult experiences, build coping tools, and express emotions creatively. Support for co-occurring medical conditions addresses physical health needs alongside emotional recovery. Clients at Valley Behavioral Health receive care in closely monitored environments designed for comfort and security. While inpatient services prioritize stabilization, they also incorporate therapeutic recreation and life-skills development. Youth benefit from academic programming led by certified teachers, helping maintain school progress. With both individual and shared rooms, wheelchair accessibility, and expansive grounds, the facility fosters emotional growth through safety, structure, and meaningful daily routines. Discharge planning at Valley Behavioral Health begins early, helping clients maintain progress beyond their stay. The team works with families and referring professionals to coordinate next steps, which may include continued outpatient therapy, medical follow-up, or community resources. For many, outpatient programs at the facility serve as an effective step-down. By preparing clients for life after treatment, Valley promotes long-term recovery and sustained emotional health.
