The front of the Merakey Mental Health Walk-In Clinic on 3125 N. Broad St., the city's first urgent care for behavioral health, which will open its doors to patients in Sept. 3.A walk-in clinic designed to support people with mental health needs will open next month on North Broad Street. Clinicians at the clinic will provide assistance with medications, anxiety and depression, and substance use, among other issues, for patients who aren’t at risk for harming themselves or others.
Providers in the clinic will support people who have mental health needs but aren’t in crisis, such as patients overwhelmed with anxiety, processing grief or a traumatic event, or suffering from postpartum depression, said Mark O’Dwyer, Merakey’s executive director for mental health outpatient services.
“The clinic aims to reduce avoidable visits to crisis response centers and emergency rooms by helping people get the mental health care they need when they need it,” DBHIDS said in a statement. In addition to therapists, the clinic’s staff will include a psychiatrist or a psychiatric nurse-practitioner who could prescribe medication.
