Adult Outpatient Children's Outpatient Community Support A.T.U Residential Services Rural Spanish Peaks Mental Health Center includes fourteen programs conducted in eight different facilities. Some of these serve many different kinds of clients; others are special programs with a narrower focus. Under a coordinated plan, many clients receive simultaneous care from several programs. The usual entry point for new clients is through one of the outpatient programs. Each individual's needs are evaluated and an appropriate plan is developed. Our Mission It is the mission of Spanish Peaks Mental Health Center to make available a comprehensive range of quality community-based mental health care services in the least restrictive manner to residents of Pueblo, Huerfano and Las Animas Counties. Are you in need of help? Please call us today. Adult Outpatient Services Adults (18 and over), most of whose needs can be met by office visits, are seen at our Adult Outpatient Clinic (AOP). Many of the individuals seen for brief-focused therapy are experiencing temporary distress and will find resolution to their problems in a very short period of time. Those who may be experiencing symptoms that could benefit from a medication will be seen by one of the Center's psychiatrists. In the last two years we have seen the development of an extensive group therapy program as well. There are a number of clients seen in the AOP who are severely mentally ill, but their condition is currently stable and they have demonstrated their ability to manage their illness.
