Behavioral Health
Behavioral health counseling is part of your medical care at NCDV. Counselors help with stress, depression, anxiety, and substance use, and with the habits that make conditions like diabetes harder to manage.

You do not need a separate appointment to start. A counselor can join your medical visit for a 15 to 30 minute session. If you need more, your provider refers you for longer sessions of 30 to 45 minutes, and we connect you with community resources when your needs go beyond what we offer.
When a counselor is not at your clinic that day, sessions are held by telehealth. Ask your provider at your next visit.
Services include
- Brief counseling during your medical visit (15 to 30 minutes)
- Longer counseling sessions by referral (30 to 45 minutes)
- Counseling for depression and anxiety
- Counseling for substance use
- Support for managing diabetes and other health conditions
- Help changing daily habits that affect your health
- Telehealth sessions
- Referrals to community mental health resources
