FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions and answers about referrals

Who does MHP serve?

Mental Health Partners provides mental health and addiction recovery care to people of all ages in and around Boulder and Broomfield counties, with a special emphasis on those with severe mental illness, as well as individuals and families who are uninsured, underinsured, or enrolled in Medicaid/Medicare.

In addition, we continue to advocate for and develop innovative programs with the goal of breaking down systemic inequities and barriers experienced by historically minoritized and under-resourced communities in our service region.

What types of services does MHP provide?

As a federally designated community mental health provider, Mental Health Partners offers a wide range of comprehensive behavioral health and substance use services for individuals and families. We recognize many factors can impact a person’s mental wellbeing – such as their financial health, stable housing and employment, social connections, healthcare access, and more. To treat the whole person, we provide support and resources to address these and many other wellness factors.

In addition to traditional mental health services like individual, family, and group therapy, our clients have access to financial planning, housing assistance, resource navigation, vocational/employment support, specialty acute care programs, targeted case management, peer support, health and wellness coaching, and much more. Visit our Services page to learn more.

Do I have to be a U.S. citizen to receive services at MHP?

Our mission is to deliver compassionate, safe, trauma-informed, quality care to all people who need mental health or substance use services, regardless of their ability to pay or documentation status. This includes individuals who are uninsured, underinsured, ineligible for government assistance, or unable to pay for medically necessary care due to their financial situation.

We never require clients to share their immigration status with us to access care or services. We seek to break down barriers to care for everyone in our community. All MHP clients have equal opportunity to apply for our Financial Assistance Program and will be treated with respect, cultural sensitivity, dignity, and confidentiality.

Does MHP accept clients with developmental disabilities?

We can and do help coordinate care for clients with neurodevelopmental conditions (such as autism spectrum disorders), as well as treat mental health symptoms that can arise from these diagnoses.

We are not equipped to provide non-verbal services at this time. However, if you or a loved one are non-verbal, we can help you find specialized treatment services through our extensive partnership network with local providers, government programs, and other nonprofit organizations.
