Lakeland Behavioral Health System

Lakeland Behavioral Health System is a leading treatment center located in the Midwestern city of Springfield, Missouri. Lakeland has been providing first-class recovery care for more than 30 years, with patient-specific programs addressing a range of mental health issues (including disorders like chronic anxiety, suicidal ideation, PTSD, and schizophrenia) as well as co-occurring substance abuse disorders.

Personalized treatment programs are offered for adults over the age of 60 and children and adolescents between the ages of 9 and 20. Programs are separated by age, gender, and type of problem behavior, then modified based on emotional and mental health needs. Lakeland offers inpatient and residential area treatment, independently prescribed to maximize each patient’s opportunity for successful, lifelong recovery. Lakeland’s treatment services are evidence-based and continuously updated by our medical professionals.

We provide 24-hour care beginning with a thorough assessment, a comprehensive diagnosis, and close guidance on accomplishing and maintaining stabilization. We then create a follow-on plan after care ends. Inpatient programs take anywhere from a few days to a couple weeks, while residential programs can last between 3 months and a year.

Care services include individual psychotherapy, family therapy, community/process groups, life skills training, safety and relapse prevention, anger management, recreational therapy, and creative expression activities that include art, music, cinema, play, and therapeutic pet therapy.
