feel better, sustainably
canyon behavioral health represents a space of personal acceptance, growth, and well-being
Our Approach
At Canyon Behavioral Health, we believe that effective psychiatric care starts with understanding the whole person—not just a diagnosis. Our providers take the time to learn about your experiences, concerns, goals, and daily life so we can develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
We offer comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, ADHD assessments, and ongoing support for adolescents and adults. Our approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and focused on helping you achieve meaningful, lasting improvements in your overall well-being.
Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, or other mental health concerns, our team is committed to providing compassionate care in a welcoming and supportive environment.
We believe mental health treatment should be personalized, transparent, and built on a strong partnership between provider and patient. Our goal is to help you feel heard, informed, and empowered throughout every step of your care journey.
what we provide
-
Medication and Supplement Management
Finding the right treatment plan can make a meaningful difference in your daily life. Our providers work closely with you to understand your symptoms, concerns, medical history, and treatment goals, creating an individualized approach that supports your overall well-being. Treatment recommendations may include medication, lifestyle modifications, supplements, and other evidence-based strategies based on your unique needs.
Mental health care is not one-size-fits-all. Through ongoing follow-up appointments, we monitor your progress, address questions or concerns, and make adjustments when needed to help ensure your treatment remains effective. We believe that the best outcomes come from a collaborative partnership between provider and patient, where open communication and shared decision-making are encouraged.
Our goal is to help you better manage symptoms, improve daily functioning, and enhance your overall quality of life. By taking the time to understand the whole person—not just a diagnosis—we strive to provide thoughtful, compassionate care that supports long-term wellness and lasting positive change.

Psychotherapy
Life can be challenging, and sometimes having a dedicated space to process your thoughts, emotions, and experiences can make a significant difference. Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to explore difficulties, gain insight into patterns and behaviors, and develop practical tools for navigating life's challenges.
Every person's journey is unique, which is why therapy is tailored to your individual needs and goals. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions, psychotherapy can provide support, perspective, and strategies to help you move forward with greater confidence and resilience.
Therapy can also help strengthen coping skills, improve communication and relationships, increase self-awareness, and support personal growth. Many individuals find that psychotherapy not only helps address current concerns but also provides lasting tools that promote emotional well-being and a greater sense of balance in everyday life.
At this time, Richard Akers is our only provider offering psychotherapy and is not currently accepting new psychotherapy patients.
-
Telehealth
Prefer the convenience of virtual care? We offer secure telehealth appointments for patients throughout Oregon. Virtual visits provide a convenient way to access psychiatric care from the comfort of your home while maintaining the same personalized support and attention as in-person appointments.
Whether you're balancing a busy schedule, live outside of Bend, or simply prefer virtual care, telehealth offers a flexible option to help you stay connected with your provider and your treatment plan.
-
Accessible Care
Accessing mental health care should be simple, supportive, and convenient. We are committed to making psychiatric services accessible by offering both in-person and telehealth appointments, flexible scheduling options, and a welcoming environment where patients feel supported throughout their care journey.
Our goal is to help remove barriers to treatment so you can focus on what matters most—your health and well-being.
