Behavioral Health Services in San Angelo

A Multidisciplinary Approach to Psychiatric Care

Whether it is for a relative, a friend, or yourself, the decision to seek help during a crisis can be difficult. At Shannon Behavioral Health Services, we are committed to a philosophy of care which preserves the dignity and integrity of each patient.

Our specialized center is a 22-bed regional inpatient psychiatric facility that provides comprehensive mental health services for adults and senior adults experiencing emotional or behavioral problems. We strive to stabilize the patient in crisis, diagnose the disorder, and develop an individualized plan that meets each patient’s needs. Our goal is to help each patient return to the highest quality of life possible in a secure, comfortable, and therapeutic environment.

Mental Health Treatment Programs in San Angelo

The admission process is confidential and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We encourage referring physicians to visit the center, and we strive to keep you fully informed of a patient’s progress throughout the entire treatment period. For your convenience, our assessment staff is available to assist you and your staff with inquiries and assessments.

Each patient has a private room with access to community areas for daily activities. Treatment options, including individual psychotherapy and group psychotherapy, play an integral role in helping patients live fulfilling and productive lives while encouraging a sense of competency and hope. In order to meet the specialized needs of each patient, we are pleased to offer two programs: the Adult Psychiatric Program and the Senior Adult Psychiatric Program.
