Expanding Access to Care Integrated behavioral health is an innovative model designed to expand access to behavioral health services by integrating behavioral health therapists with primary or specialty care clinics. Licensed behavioral health professionals collaborate with physicians and nurses to bridge the gap between medical and mental wellness. The integrated model recognizes that physical health and mental wellness are not separate. They are deeply linked. Behavioral health challenges – like depression, post-traumatic stress or anxiety, among others – can cause physical symptoms.
