Your health is important, and health covers the entire scope of your wellness–mental and physical. A quarter of Americans will struggle with some form of mental health challenge in their lifetimes. The Denver, CO metro area equates to about 750,000 people who might benefit from mental health treatment and support. There is a mental health facility in Denver that can help you or anyone you know who is struggling with mental health, whether or not it is in conjunction with a substance use disorder.

That facility is Mile High Recovery Center, which offers evidence-based mental health therapy in Denver. To learn more about how we can help you manage anxiety, overcome depression, heal from trauma, and other such challenges, call (303) 268-2144 today or fill out our easy online form.

Common Mental Health Diagnoses

The five most common mental health challenges faced by people in the United States are listed below.

  • Anxiety disorders–which encompass generalized anxiety, social anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and panic disorder
  • Mood disorders–including major depression, dysthymia (persistent depressive disorder), and bipolar disorder
  • Psychosis–covering schizophrenia, delusional disorder, and schizoaffective disorder
  • Eating disorders– such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and others
  • Dementia–from Huntington’s and Parkinson’s diseases to Alzheimer’s

Of those five, the first three commonly co-occur with substance use disorders and can also be triggered by addiction. At Mile High Recovery Center, we offer coordinated therapies to treat your mental health as well as any co-occurring addictions, if applicable.

Mental Health Services in Denver

Mental health is health. It is not secondary or less-than – it is as much a part of someone’s health profile as any other system, from the heart to the skin. Millions of people cannot live their lives to the fullest due to mental health challenges. Careers and relationships can falter or fail to flourish, and poor self-worth, lack of enjoyment, and the sheer exhaustion of dealing with the details of life can be overwhelming. First-class therapy, often in combination with proper medication, can change someone’s life for the better. At Mile High Recovery Center, your mental health is our priority. Whether or not you also require addiction rehab, we can help you regain your mental wellness and reclaim your life.
