A good way to access services is through our 24-hour information and crisis line at1-800-772-5987. There you will be speaking with credentialed professionals willing to answer your questions about services, whether it be a crisis or a non crisis call. If you are in crisis, our staff will assess to determine if you need to be seen face-to-face immediately. If a non crisis appointment is needed, an appointment will be arranged for you to come into one of our outpatient clinics near your home. At your first appointment you can expect to meet with a licensed professional that will help you make some decisions about the services you're seeking as well as what services for which you are eligible. You are welcome to bring a family member or friend along with you if you like. If you're bringing in a child for services a parent or the legally authorized representative will need to be present.
Rest assured that Pecan Valley MHMR is licensed by the Department of State Health Services and the Department of Aging and Disability Services and our staff are credentialed to provide the quality services you are seeking. We also maintain an extensive list of other credentialed providers in the community that you may choose from for some services.
