At Unity Health, we believe caring for your mental and emotional health is just as important as your physical health. We offer compassionate behavioral health services close to home on both an outpatient and inpatient basis for all ages.

Behavioral Health is a term covering the full range of mental and emotional well-being – from the basics of how one copes with day-to-day challenges of life, to the treatment of mental illnesses, such as depression or personality disorder, as well as substance use disorder and other addictive behaviors.

Our team of psychiatrists, licensed mental health counselors, psychiatric nurses and other specialists provide medication management, counseling and therapy services, and psychological testing to people of all age groups.

Outpatient Services:

Unity Health offers outpatient mental health services at our Clarity Health and Wellness clinics in Searcy, Cabot and Newport. Our team of psychiatrists can provide medication management as well as our therapists who provide counseling sessions to people of all ages.

Some specific areas of treatment include: Depression, Anxiety, Grief, Life stressors, Trauma and Psychosis.

If you would like more information about our outpatient services, please call 501.203.0055 in Searcy, 501.422.6431 in Cabot or 870.495.1260 in Newport.

Adolescent care:

At Unity Health - Specialty Care in Searcy, our adolescent inpatient acute behavioral unit offers therapy to children ages 12 - 17. Courage is an 11-bed unit for adolescents who are still in school but are having emotional or behavioral health difficulties that require short-term hospitalization.

The young patients at Courage will meet with their psychiatrist and other members of their treatment team daily to review their progress and work on their individual goals. Patients will take part in therapeutic group activities, while an on-site certified classroom ensures that they won’t fall behind in school during their stay.

Adult care:

Our Compass program, located in both Searcy and Newport, provides short-term inpatient care and treatment for adults ages 18 and older. Patients at Compass receive a full range of mental health treatments for emotional and behavioral difficulties. They will meet with their psychiatrist and members of their treatment team daily. Patients will also take part in therapeutic group activities and recreational therapy.

Senior care

Our Clearview inpatient program, located in both Searcy and Newport, serves adults age 55 years and older. Our Clearview team provides comprehensive treatment to address the unique behavioral health needs of seniors. Clearview offers help for seniors dealing with loss, depression, anxiety and other behavioral health concerns.
