A Message from the Director of Psychological Health:

If you are a member of the Arkansas National Guard and need mental or behavioral health treatment-- get it.

The majority of service members who get mental health treatment never require profiles or duty limitations.

The Arkansas National Guard wants to retain Soldiers and Airmen and will assist those who need mental health care. 

Please reach out to a Behavioral Health Team member directly or contact your chain of command for more detailed information and assistance.

Our Behavioral Health Professionals can assist with the following:

- Consultation and help solving significant problems
- Needs assessments and referrals to community resources
- Case management
- Individual and Unit education and training
- Command consultations
- Crisis support
