Integrated behavioral health | Bitterroot Health
Care focused on all your needs
Integrated behavioral health (IBH) is about providing both primary care and behavioral health services together, in the same place, at the same time. Primary care works best when we focus on all aspects of the person, not just a physical "issue."
IBH services are tailored to your needs; IBH staff work directly with your primary care provider to consider physical, behavioral and emotional aspects of your health concern and help determine a course of action that will work best for you. They can help when habits, behaviors, stress, worry, or emotional concerns about physical or other life problems are interfering with your daily life or overall health.
IBH can help with a wide variety of health issues and concerns, like:
Obesity and weight loss planning and management
And other lifestyle modifications
Integrated behavioral health services are part of your overall healthcare and not specifically mental health care.
Talk with your primary care provider about questions you may have about the IBH program. If you and your provider agree this service would be helpful, they will refer you to the IBH counselors.
