Complete with 27 beds for adult inpatient behavioral health hospitalization, Jonas Hill is equipped to treat a variety of conditions including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and substance abuse. The facility’s integrated outpatient clinic also provides education and resources to patients and their families including behavioral health evaluations, medication management, and therapy/counseling.

To eliminate dark, confined areas and encourage positive interactions among patients, staff, and nature, the behavioral health clinic’s design features open-concept spaces with high ceilings and ample natural light.
Our healthcare team carefully selected furniture, finishes, and equipment to create a safe, soothing, and non-institutional environment, ensuring every element prevents potential harm to patients and others.
A highlight of Jonas Hill is its large outdoor courtyard, featuring a walking track and spaces for music therapy, yoga, meditation, and exercise. These areas are designed to support the healing process, providing clinically integrated, high-quality mental health care to community members.
