About Lakeland Behavioral Health System – Springfield, Missouri

Lakeland Behavioral Health System in Springfield, Missouri, provides mental health and behavioral services for children and adults. They provide inpatient and outpatient programs for most mental health diagnoses and co-occurring substance use disorders.

For children and adolescents aged 4 to 17 who are experiencing acute mental health and emotional crisis, Lakeland offers inpatient facilities. Their inpatient facility provides focused treatment plans that are created to meet each individual’s unique recovery needs. Treatment is age appropriate and gender specific, recognizing that the needs of young children are not the same as teens. This includes individual and group therapy applying experiential methods like music and art, recreational and pet/animal sessions, age appropriate skill development, programs to help develop positive coping skills and family therapy. Outpatient services provide continuing age appropriate and gender specific programming.

The Benefits of Hope program is for adults who require inpatient treatment. It is designed for men and women 40 years of age and older. The multidisciplinary approach to treatment includes individual, group and activity therapy with a focus on symptom management, development of positive coping skills and if needed, medication management.
