How to access the PBH Psychiatric Department
Being seen by our Psychiatric Department requires a referral for care. This may come from your primary care provider or internally from a PBH therapist.
If you have questions on whether care in our department would be a good fit for you or would like to become a patient at PBH, please call (360) 457-0431 and ask for the Access Department.
Our approach to care
Our team is here to support you as you work with PBH therapy providers on your treatment plan. We provide education to support your journey, and in some instances, our providers will engage in more formalized therapy when necessary.
Our psychiatric providers are all board certified and adhere to best practices. We believe in a holistic and collaborative approach to patient care and work closely with your primary care provider to assure continuity of care.
