Description

The Colby Center for Psychiatry is dedicated to providing high quality, compassionate care to clients and their families.

All families have strengths that should be recognized and appreciated. Every creative effort should be made so that children can remain in their own homes and communities. Parents and professionals need to work together as equal partners. Services need to be flexible and designed to utilize families' strengths and meet their needs. Families that have a child with problems are not "dysfunctional." They are "multi-stressed" Parents have practical experience and insights to offer other parents and service providers.

Our mission is to provide high-quality behavioral health services, promoting and enhancing individual and community well-being.
