About Potomac Highlands MH Guild Inc

Potomac Highlands Guild is a community behavioral health agency based in Petersburg, West Virginia, with clinic offices serving Grant, Hampshire, Hardy, Mineral, and Pendleton counties. They work with people facing substance use problems, mental illness, intellectual and developmental disabilities, and other life challenges, and they aim to match each person with the setting their clinical needs call for. Care is planned by multidisciplinary teams, and no one is turned away solely because they can’t pay. For addiction, their services are delivered on an outpatient basis through their county clinics.

People working on substance use can meet with trained therapists in individual, group, or family sessions, and contracted psychiatrists provide evaluations and medication management alongside area physicians. They also run a DUI safety and treatment program with assessments, education, and counseling for people arrested for impaired driving, while case managers help with treatment planning, advocacy, and connections to other services. Their Russ Hedrick Recovery and Resource Center supports people in recovery, including a fund that helps those who are struggling and need extra assistance. A 24/7 crisis line staffed by clinicians backs up this care, and the agency also leads regional prevention efforts, including anti-drug coalitions and a prescription drug initiative.
