Services

For over a decade, Horizon Mental & Rehabilitation Services (HMRS) has been dedicated to providing diagnostic assessment and psychotherapy to Somali and East African adults. We understand the unique challenges and stigma surrounding mental health within these communities. Our approach is rooted in cultural competency, and we work closely with individuals and their families to provide a holistic approach to care.

What to Expect in Your Initial Sessions:

In your first few sessions at HMRS, our psychotherapists will focus on understanding your concerns and challenges. These initial sessions are an opportunity for you to share your experiences and for us to get to know you better. Our goal is to determine your expectations from mental health services, and this phase is known as a diagnostic assessment.

In these early sessions, your psychotherapist will work with you to create a "road map" or a treatment plan that outlines the goals and topics you'd like to focus on during psychotherapy. As we progress, our psychotherapy services will help you gain a deeper understanding of your thoughts, behaviors, and feelings, equipping you with coping tools to navigate life's challenges effectively. Our approach is non-judgmental, providing a safe and private space for you to be heard and gain insights into the impact of your experiences on your life.

Diagnostic Assessment:

Our Diagnostic Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation to address your current concerns and needs. This assessment can be conducted in our therapy office or via telehealth, depending on your preference. It includes:

• A written assessment of your current life situation and sources of stress by      a mental health professional, along with the reasons for referral.
• A detailed review of your mental health history, including significant life events, strengths, and vulnerabilities.
• An evaluation of your current functioning, symptoms, diagnosis, and the recommended mental health services you may need.

Psychotherapy:

Psychotherapy is a core service provided at HMRS, either in our outpatient setting or through telehealth. Our psychotherapy services are designed to assist individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns.
