About Mercy Behavioral Health – North Hills Center

Mercy Behavioral Health – North Hills Center is a behavioral health and addiction treatment provider based in Wexford, Pennsylvania.

The center serves adults and adolescents, young adults and seniors with substance use treatment, mental health care and support for co-occurring disorders.

As part of the broader Pittsburgh Mercy network, the center offers compassionate, community based care designed to meet people wherever they are in their recovery journey.

Outpatient Addiction Care

The North Hills Center specializes in outpatient treatment, including intensive outpatient programming for individuals managing both substance use and mental health concerns.

I want to note that care is delivered through individual psychotherapy, group therapy and family or couples sessions with a strong focus on co-occurring conditions.

Sessions draw on evidence based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, trauma therapy and behavior modification.

Treatment may also include medication services, crisis management and supportive counseling to address both symptoms and underlying causes.

Patients have described the team as "professional, friendly, discreet, open minded, judgement free," and "truly caring."

Whole Person Support

Beyond core therapy, the center connects clients to case management, family psychoeducation, suicide prevention services, and tobacco screening and cessation counseling.

I want to point out that its role within the Pittsburgh Mercy network helps support continuity of care across a wide range of community based services including the on site Wexford Adult Training Facility.

Access and Next Steps

The North Hills Center provides in person outpatient services on Perry Highway in Wexford, Pennsylvania with eligible admissions sometimes completed within 24 hours.

I think it's important to note that the center accepts Medicaid, Medicare and private insurance, state and local funding, and self pay with sliding fee scale options available.
