Care for your mental health

Mental health is an important part of your overall wellness — your mind, body, and spirit are all connected. At Kaiser Permanente, we support your mental health in a number of ways. You can get treated by an in-network provider for conditions like depression, anxiety, and addiction, with no referral needed. Learn more about the resources we offer to support your mental health and wellness.

New! First responders: Support for your mental wellness

As a Kaiser Permanente member, you can get care for mental health concerns from an in-network mental health provider with no referral. Your provider may also recommend self-care apps to address a particular concern.

First responders can get additional support from Kaiser Permanente’s partnership with Harbor of Grace’s National Law Enforcement & First Responder Wellness Center. They offer treatment for substance abuse, trauma, and more. Learn more about Harbor of Grace.
