What happens when individuals needing medical help don’t fully acknowledge the problem, much less know where to go to get treatment? It can be a problem in any area of healthcare — “No, my heart is fine, I’m just tired.” In behavioral health, though, the problem is compounded by a confusing system and the still-present social stigma around mental health issues. That, in a nutshell, is what Centerstone is trying to solve. Co-founder and CEO David Guth sees the behavioral health system as needing a restructure to get there. Add to that the changing but still-present social stigma around mental health issues, and people looking for treatment are left with a very difficult process to get help and recover. Fortunately, barrriers are coming down. The science around behavioral health is improving and the body of research growing. Education is becoming more commonplace, so people have a greater understanding of the physiological, pathological underpinning of so many mental health conditions. Additionally, people are starting to speak out about their own struggles and recoveries. This has an enormous positive effect in terms of breaking down the social stigma around mental and behavioral health. And, organizations like Centerstone are working to provide personalized treatment based on each patient’s needs, not based on the organization’s specialty
