About Created for Greater Health Systems

Created for Greater Health Systems is a CARF-accredited behavioral health provider in Baltimore, Maryland, offering mental health and substance use services for children, youth, and adults. Founded in 2017 by Daniel and Lakia Thompson, a crisis intervention specialist and a clinical social worker, they take a person-centered approach that sets the pace around each client’s needs and treats the whole person. For addiction, they offer ASAM Level 1.0 outpatient substance use treatment and a clinically managed Level 3.1 residential program with recovery housing. Their clinic also provides outpatient mental health care and a Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program (PRP) for people managing conditions such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and bipolar disorder.

Therapy options include individual, family, and couples counseling, along with medication management from a psychiatric nurse practitioner and psychoeducation that helps clients understand their diagnoses. Beyond clinical care, they focus heavily on practical life skills, including coping strategies, anger management, conflict resolution, communication, money management, nutrition, and vocational training. Staff also help clients apply for housing, SSI, SNAP, and Temporary Cash Assistance, which can make a real difference for people rebuilding stability in early recovery. Transportation coordination to appointments and youth mentoring add further support for families who need more than therapy alone.
