Mental health care can take many forms, from individual counseling and psychiatric treatment to crisis intervention, peer support and community education. In a rural mountain region, having those resources available locally can make it easier for individuals and families to seek support without traveling long distances. This year’s Best of Grand contest includes mental health providers offering a range of approaches to behavioral health, trauma recovery and emotional well-being across Grand County.
Trauma-informed care and community support are at the center of Tame Wellness, short for Trauma Informed Mindful Alignment Environment. The Fraser organization combines counseling with mindfulness workshops, mental health education, peer groups and youth outreach. Its emphasis on affordable, low-barrier services also extends to crisis mitigation and preventive mental health support within the community.
Mental and physical health care come together through Middle Park Health’s integrated behavioral health services.
