What is Behavioral Health?
Behavioral health refers to how our daily cognitive habits affect our overall well-being, emotions, biology, and behavior. It’s often used interchangeably with mental health, but is actually a far more expansive term that incorporates not just our mental wellness, but the way our thoughts play out in real life.
Good behavioral health means engaging in behaviors that help you achieve an ideal mental and physical balance. That means exercising, eating a healthy diet, and taking necessary steps to manage an existing disease or injury.

Does Medi-Cal & Medicare Cover Outpatient Substance Use Disorder Treatment?
If you have coverage under Medi-Cal or Medicare you may have the option of either outpatient services or intensive outpatient services (also known as IOP). IOPs require increased time spent within treatment and involves more counseling and therapy sessions, while still allowing clients to keep their jobs and live at home. Contact 'Colusa County Behavioral Health Services' or your primary physician to learn more.
