UR Medicine Mental Health & Wellness – Strong Ties

In Rochester, New York, you can find a community-certified behavioral health clinic called UR Medicine Mental Health & Wellness – Strong Ties. They are part of UR Medicine and have high standards when it comes to treating their patients through team-based outpatient mental health services. They have a wide range of services that include individual therapy, group therapy, comprehensive medication management and other supportive services like case management and peer support.

I like that nobody gets denied access to services just because they can’t pay since they have a discounted sliding fee schedule available. I also like that they even have an on-site pharmacy that you can take advantage of as well as satellite laboratory systems.

What was most notable to me is that they offer a young adult program that provides early intervention for any individual between the ages of 18 and 28 who is struggling with serious mental health conditions such as schizophrenia and any accompanying substance misuse disorder. They also offer specialized adolescents treatment for clients between the ages of 14 and 24. You can even get medication assisted treatment to help with withdrawal symptoms and receive the same kind of counseling that you would get as an adult.

Their Assertive Community Treatment team offers a project that utilizes intensive outreach approaches for people with serious mental disorders who cannot readily access traditional clinic services. They provide in-home services, 24/7 availability and daily clinical services to their clients within the Monroe County area who are deemed most impaired due to their mental disorder.
