Samaria Behavioral Health Center

A psychiatry-led outpatient center brings mental health, addiction treatment and innovative behavioral health services together in one accessible care setting. Based in Tempe, Arizona, the center serves adolescents and adults through psychiatric evaluations, medication management, counseling, and intensive outpatient care (IOP). Their services include IV ketamine infusions, Spravato, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT), giving clients access to several treatment options within one practice.

Advanced Therapeutic Options and Substance Use Support

For clients with treatment-resistant depression, the center offers medically supervised IV ketamine infusions and Spravato nasal spray, with psychiatric evaluations guiding treatment decisions. Their addiction services include MAT for alcohol and opioid use disorders, with buprenorphine and injectable naltrexone among the medications used. Clients needing more structured support can enter the intensive outpatient program (IOP), which combines individual therapy, group sessions, and educational workshops to strengthen coping skills and support recovery.

Support Mental Health Through Life Transitions

The center provides specialized care for new mothers experiencing postpartum depression, mood changes, and other mental health concerns after childbirth. Psychiatric providers and counselors use assessments, individual counseling, and medication management when appropriate, with attention to maternal-infant bonding and emotional well-being. For ongoing psychiatric care, providers monitor symptoms, adjust medications, and coordinate with therapists when needed. Eligible clients can also access routine psychiatric follow-ups and online counseling after an initial in-person evaluation.
