About Us

Our Mission

The Mission of Newport Mental Health is to improve the lives of those who live, work, and study in Newport County by providing the highest quality, recovery-oriented, evidence-based, and integrated mental health and substance use care

Who We Are

Newport Mental Health is a Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC). We are a 501(c)3, charitable nonprofit organization and we treat people of all ages, from all walks of life, regardless of their ability to pay. Immediate access to care is available by calling 401-846-1213. 

We welcome children, adolescents, families, and adults who are experiencing problems with mental illness, substance use, or stress in their lives, and who would benefit from counseling and other behavioral health services and supports. Our person-centered recovery approach to care provides the opportunity to achieve a better quality of life and recovery from emotional illness. Through more than 30 unique programs, Newport Mental Health serves people of all ages, and from all walks of life, prioritizing the importance of family and community.

What Sets Us Apart

Person-centered care values the person benefiting from health and social services as an equal partner in planning, developing, and monitoring care to ensure their needs are met. 

Outreach and engagement are essential; we meet individuals where they are. We allow them to make changes when they are ready, and we take the time to build rapport, trust and hope with every individual we serve. 

Collaboration honors our clients’ wisdom, recognizing that they are the experts in their own lives. 

Autonomy is at our core; we believe in empowering our clients and honoring their choices. 

Compassion, empathy, and understanding are at the center of everything we do. 

Community is not just an entity or a group of people; it’s a feeling of connection to others, acceptance for who you are, and the promise of unconditional support. When you work with Newport Mental Health, you become part of our community.
