Psychosocial Counseling

We’re Here to Support You During the Difficult Moments

Dealing with a difficult diagnosis can be emotionally, socially, and financially stressful for both patients and their loved ones. For this reason, our Integrative Wellness Center offers a variety of in- and outpatient counseling services.

The Integrative Wellness Center is able to provide psychosocial counseling to individuals, couples, and families facing life-changing diagnoses, such as cancer. Whether these patients need help in processing their diagnosis or in coping with the physical and psychological aspects of treatment, our highly experienced staff is able to provide much-needed support and guidance.

Inpatient Services

For patients with more severe psychosocial needs, including those suffering from major psychiatric disorders, MarinHealth Medical Center has the largest inpatient community mental healthcare program in the area. We offer crisis intervention, evaluation, and treatment 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. In addition to psychiatric care, patients receive full medical services from a caring and committed Behavioral Health team.
