Hickory Behavioral Health Center specializes in addressing the complex mental health needs of adults. Patients come to us for a wide range of reasons—some are experiencing a crisis, while others are ready to take the next step in long-term recovery. Whatever the reason, we meet each individual with compassion, respect, and an evidence-based approach to care.
At Hickory Behavioral Health Center, we treat many common psychiatric conditions and symptoms, including:
Anxiety Disorders: Constant worry, panic attacks, or fear can affect every aspect of life. We help patients build coping tools and manage symptoms through structured therapeutic care.
Depression: Whether mild or severe, depression is one of the most common mental health disorders. Our treatment helps individuals address the emotional, behavioral, and physical symptoms, enabling them to begin feeling like themselves again.
Bipolar Disorder: We assist patients in stabilizing mood swings and provide support through medication management and behavioral therapies.
Psychosis and Delusions: For those experiencing disorganized thinking, hallucinations, or paranoia, we offer structured inpatient care to ensure safety and begin treatment.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Our team is trained in trauma-informed care, and we support individuals in managing the effects of trauma and reclaiming a sense of safety and control.
Suicidal Ideation: Individuals who are at risk of self-harm receive immediate and intensive support in a therapeutic environment.
Co-Occurring Disorders: Mental illness and substance use frequently go hand in hand. Our integrated treatment approach ensures that both conditions are addressed simultaneously, increasing the likelihood of a successful and lasting recovery.
Mental Health in Akron and Summit County
Akron—and Summit County more broadly—has been deeply affected by the nationwide mental health and substance use crisis. According to the Ohio Department of Health, Ohio reported an unintentional drug overdose death rate of 43.6 per 100,000 residents in 2022. For many, mental health and substance use challenges don’t exist in isolation. These overlapping conditions can make recovery more difficult—but also more critical.
At Hickory Behavioral Health Center in Cambridge, we welcome clients from Akron and throughout Ohio. Our experienced clinical staff, including psychiatrists, therapists, and nurses, develop personalized treatment plans that take the whole person into account.
