Merakey North Chestnut Street

Helping adults improve emotional health and self-sufficiency, Merakey North Chestnut Street is an outpatient behavioral health center for people experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma-related concerns, addiction, serious mental illness, and co-occurring healthcare needs. They address conditions affecting work, relationships, housing, physical wellbeing, and daily routines through personalized therapy, psychiatric care, medication management, and recovery planning.

Build Stability through Support

They provide outpatient therapy, psychiatric evaluation, medication management, case coordination, peer-guided services, recovery planning, and life-skills development. They also connect adults with healthcare, employment, transportation, benefits, and housing resources. This coordinated approach helps people manage symptoms while building steadier routines, greater confidence, and more independence in daily life.

Extend Recovery into Community

Located along North Chestnut Street, this center is part of Merakey, a nonprofit dedicated to helping people, families, and communities. Merakey began in Philadelphia in 1969 as The Northwest Center, later became NHS Human Services, and has grown into a multi-state provider serving 12 states across behavioral health, autism, addiction recovery, intellectual and developmental disability, education, foster care, aging, and veteran services. At this location, they carry that mission forward through recovery-focused treatment, practical support, independence, and hope.
