When mental health or addiction issues become overwhelming, finding the proper support is crucial. At Hickory Behavioral Health Center in Zanesville, Ohio, we offer compassionate inpatient care for adults and seniors who require immediate assistance with behavioral health challenges.

Behavioral Health Support for Adults and Older Adults in Zanesville

At our Zanesville location, we specialize in helping individuals facing acute psychiatric symptoms or dual diagnoses involving both mental health and substance use. We understand that each person’s journey is different—and that healing takes time, trust, and personalized care. That’s why our approach is centered on the individual, with treatment plans tailored to their unique needs and diagnoses.

We serve adults and geriatric patients with a wide range of behavioral health concerns, including:

  • Anxiety: Feelings of worry, panic, or fear can make day-to-day life feel exhausting. Our program offers tools and strategies to help patients manage these symptoms and regain control.
  • Depression: When sadness becomes persistent and overwhelming, it may signal clinical depression. We use evidence-based therapies and medication management to support recovery.
  • Bipolar Disorder: From manic highs to depressive lows, bipolar disorder requires specialized care. Our staff helps patients stabilize and learn long-term strategies for balance.
  • Psychosis and Delusions: Individuals experiencing hallucinations or a break from reality benefit from our structured environment and skilled psychiatric intervention.
  • PTSD: Trauma leaves lasting effects. We use trauma-informed practices to help patients safely process their experiences and reduce distress.
  • Suicidal Ideation: For individuals experiencing thoughts of self-harm, our center offers immediate, 24/7 care in a supportive, closely monitored setting.
  • Co-Occurring Disorders: Mental illness and substance use often go hand-in-hand. Our integrated approach addresses both issues at once, promoting whole-person healing.

Zanesville’s Mental Health Landscape

Zanesville, located in Muskingum County, faces challenges that reflect a broader statewide concern. According to the Health Policy Institute of Ohio, the number of Ohioans reporting depression is higher than the national average. In addition, the Institute reports that the percentage of Ohioans who report poor mental health—and the number of suicides in the state—are increasing. Addressing the root causes of the mental health challenges facing Ohioans is critical and requires access to quality care for mental health. And that care is insufficient in the Buckeye state.

At Hickory Behavioral Health Center in Zanesville, we’re working to change that.  Our team includes psychiatrists, nurses, licensed therapists, and support staff who are dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based treatment. We also coordinate with hospitals, primary care providers, and community services to ensure that patients receive continuity of care once they leave our program.

Older adults often face unique behavioral health concerns, including cognitive decline, grief, isolation, and chronic illness. Our team has experience working with the geriatric population, and we tailor care to reflect those specialized needs—always with kindness, dignity, and patience.

Whether someone is coming to us after an emergency room visit, a referral from another facility, or a family’s concern, our goal is to make them feel safe, heard, and supported from the very beginning.
