Mental and Behavioral Health

Behavioral health is a specialized field within healthcare that focuses on treating and preventing mental health and substance use disorders. It involves identifying behavioral patterns that may be harmful to an individual's emotional or physical health, and using methods such as therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes to help them achieve better mental health and well-being. Behavioral health requires specialized training and skills, as it deals with complex and sensitive issues that require a patient-centered and compassionate approach.
