Atuld Mental Health Services
Serving Your Mental Health Needs
Any mental health challenges can negatively impact your quality of life, causing you to be anxious, distracted, tired, and hopeless. But it doesn’t have to be this way. At Metrocare, we provide adult mental health services to treat symptoms of depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, OCD, bipolar disorder, and other emotional challenges so you can live a happier, more fulfilling life.
About Metrocare
Metrocare Services is here to people in Dallas who are experiencing a mental health challenge. We have been serving the Dallas community for over 50 years.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT is structured, goal-oriented talk therapy. It helps patients unlearn problematic beliefs they have about themselves and the world. Unlearning these negative beliefs allows them to develop healthier thoughts and behaviors.
Cognitive Processing Therapy
CPT helps adults overcome or reduce symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder through targeted treatment plans.
Crisis Intervention
Our intervention services disrupt the downward spiral of a mental health crisis and reduce instances of hospitalization. This allows us to create an intentional and compassionate plan for future treatment.
Crisis Respite
For patients who are working through a crisis, our respite services provide a safe residential setting until they are stable enough to be independent. Our supports include symptom and medication management, counseling, treatment plans, and linkage with other helpful community services.
Primary Care
Metrocare’s primary care services allow our therapists to collaborate with primary care physicians to provide effective treatment plans.
Pharmacy/Medication Services
For many patients, medication can be very beneficial in treating mental health disorders. The highly trained psychiatrists on our team understand how medication can be part of a holistic approach. For some patients, medication is temporary, relieving symptoms while they undergo therapy. For others, it may be most helpful long term or permanently.
Assertive Community Treatment
Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) is an intensive, community-based program for adults. The 24/7 support assists those who struggle with the most severe symptoms and needs. Many have been frequently hospitalized or arrested before being connected with our services. Our ACT multidisciplinary team includes a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner, a clinical manager, a registered nurse, case managers, and specialists in substance abuse and employment.
Eldercare
Adjusting to aging can be difficult. It doesn’t just affect the body. It can affect emotional health as well. Because of this, adults over 60 require specialized care that allows them to live a full, productive life. At Metrocare, we work with nursing home residents and retired neighbors, providing mental health treatment and working with them to develop skills so they can return to independent living.
Peer Support Services
For some patients, it is extremely beneficial to speak with others who understand what they are going through. By sharing their own lived experience, peer counselors help others develop goals, and take steps toward a more fulfilling life. These peer counselors assist patients every step of the way, encouraging them through their recovery journey.
Life Skills Training
Adults with mental illness often find it challenging to manage stress, which prevents them from functioning effectively. Our intensive therapeutic life skills training includes stress management, structured group outings, and other activities that teach them to take better care of themselves and socialize with others. Through our programs, our patients develop new skills that allow them to live more independently.
Substance Abuse Services
Metrocare’s comprehensive substance use outpatient program employs person-centered and trauma-informed recovery planning. A licensed dependency counselor provides these supports and creates an individualized treatment plan to meet the needs of each person’s goals and strengths.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Meet with a Qualified Mental Health Professional
At Metrocare, we understand that every person is different and requires an individualized treatment plan. You and your child will meet with a Qualified Mental Health Professional (QMHP) to complete required assessments, discuss your needs, and establish initial recovery goals.
Evaluation by a Psychiatrist or Nurse Practitioner
You will complete an evaluation with a Psychiatrist or Nurse Practitioner to address medical needs as a component of the recovery plan. Each patient is assigned a Metrocare care coordinator who works with the child’s built-in support system and addresses possible barriers to care.
