About Alaska Behavioral Health

The Alaska Behavioral Health medical department in Anchorage provides adults access to psychiatric and primary care services, offered both face-to-face and through telehealth. The staff conducts assessments, manages medications, and helps coordinate treatment with other members of a client’s healthcare team. Clients can also use the on-site pharmacy to have prescriptions filled.

Providers at the department, including psychiatrists and nurse practitioners, work with a broad range of adult mental health conditions at different points in recovery. They deliver evidence-based medication management, and some clinicians focus on complex disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression. The overall goal is to support clients in controlling their symptoms and improving day-to-day functioning.
