Specialized,Targeted Mental Health Treatment
At Lakeside Behavioral Health System, the ultimate goal of treatment is to restore the health of patients struggling with mental health and addiction. We offer evidence-based treatment programs that allow each person to grow and learn through their self-discovery and from people in similar situations. In each program, patients gain the education, skills training and symptom-management tools to live a happy, healthy, fulfilling life.
Treatment Methods
Mental illness covers a multiplicity of symptoms, brought on by a long list of causes and complicated by human behavior. Everyone doesn’t respond the same, and each patient’s needs are different, so we provide specialized programs for children, adolescents, adults and seniors.
While individual features vary, programs may include a combination of treatment methods and skill-building to lay the groundwork for lasting recovery, including:
- Coping skills training
- Identification of warning signs and triggers
- Communication skills
- Problem-solving
- Verbalization of feelings
- Relaxation techniques
- Identification of negative thought patterns
- Assertiveness training
- Addressing unresolved grief and trauma
- Medication management
Better Days Are Ahead
What makes Lakeside unique is the campus-like setting. There are ten buildings on our 37-acre campus. All adult programs (The Landing Mental Health, The Landing Addiction Services, East and West General Adult Inpatient) and geriatric program (Brunswick Place) have their own buildings on our campus. The three child and adolescent programs (Recovery Academy, Bridges, and Child) also have their own building. Following the admission assessment, the psychiatrist and other members of the clinical team will recommend admission to one of the programs based on the patient’s specific clinical needs.
