What Is Behavioral Health
Behavioral health is often conflated with mental health, but they are two distinct fields of care. Behavioral health is a broad term that describes the connection between behaviors and their effects on mental and physical health.
At Transmountain Primary Care, we understand how behavior can affect physical and emotional health, and how those factors can affect behavior. Through behavioral health interventions, our staff can help improve the behavioral health outcomes of our patients.
