We are energized and inspired to bring hope, healing and health to all we encounter.

Partners, Clients and Community Members,

In the midst of the current community health crisis there is so much happening at Lee Carlson Center for Mental Health Well-being.  We have been energized and inspired by the opportunity we have already had to bring hope, healing and health to our community.  This momentum is the driving force behind our mission to support the mental health and wellness of anyone we encounter.

Right now we have the staff talent and capacity to help address mental health concerns that arise.  If you or someone you know needs someone to talk to or someone to provide compassionate support during a stressful time we can help right away.  You don’t need to wait for the mental health services you need today.  Contact us and share our contact info with those you care about.  Our central intake line is 763-780-3036.

Currently, we are providing this important support to our clients via 2-way video and telephone.  We have an easy to use telehealth platform and some health plans are allowing their insured to get access to services over the phone as well.  As the community health crisis continues to proceed toward a future when we will return to a degree of normalcy we will continue to be your advocate, your supporter and a guide while you navigate the journey to mental wellness.  Undertaking the challenges brought on by the current community health crisis is not something you need to do alone.  We can help individuals, families, and couples along that path now and during the days ahead.

As the school year wraps up and the summer season begins don’t hesitate to reach out to us.  Regardless of the season we offer support across the greater metro area for individuals of all ages.  Just last week 30 individuals reached out for the first time and are starting to work with our amazing team members already.

We are energized and inspired to bring hope, healing and health to all we encounter.

 

Best Regards,

Rob Edwards, CEO
Lee Carlson Center for Mental Health and Well-being
