About Mercy Clinic Psychiatry – Jefferson – Festus, Missouri

Mercy Clinic Psychiatry, which is a part of the Mercy Clinic Jefferson hospital, offers therapeutic services in Festus, Missouri. The psychiatrists at the facility have years of clinical expertise and are board certified. They provide treatment for mood disorders, depression and other mental illnesses that may contribute to substance use disorder.

One therapeutic approach that is provided at this facility is interpersonal therapy. It’s grounded in the idea that relationships and social life can have an impact on mental health. Relationships can also affect substance use, as building positive support systems can help you be less likely to relapse.

Interpersonal therapy is provided over a 12 to 16 week period in an individual or group setting. Your counselor will focus on topics such as identifying unhealthy relationships and managing interpersonal conflict. You’ll be given assignments to complete and your therapist may recommend you participate in group sessions to work on having interpersonal relationships in a safe setting.

With the facility located on interstate 55, you’ll have easy access to various attractions in the Festus area. A great place you can spend a relaxing day is West City Park. It features a pond and a picnic area where you can enjoy a nice meal.

A co-occurring disorder may require you to seek more extensive treatment services. The facility can refer you to Mercy Intensive Outpatient Behavioral Health to get treatment for both mental health and substance use disorder. The behavioral health facility will incorporate various treatments including group therapy, psychiatric medication, and four to five weeks of intensive outpatient care.
