About Harborview Medical Center | Seattle Hospital
Harborview Medical Center in Seattle's First Hill neighborhood offers integrated mental health and addiction services to patients across King County and the greater Pacific Northwest.
Its programs treat substance use disorders alongside co-occurring psychiatric and medical conditions for adults, young adults and seniors.
As a public safety-net hospital, Harborview prioritizes care for vulnerable and underserved populations, including uninsured, underinsured and non-English-speaking patients.
Integrated Treatment Approach
Harborview's Mental Health and Addiction Services program delivers outpatient chemical dependency and mental health care under one roof, located in the Patricia Steel Building just blocks from the main hospital.
Services include psychiatric evaluation, psychotherapy, group treatment, medication management, crisis intervention and case management.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a core part of the clinical approach.
Sessions are designed to address both substance use and underlying mental health concerns at the same time, helping patients build lasting recovery skills.
An interdisciplinary team of physicians, chemical dependency counselors, social workers and peer support specialists supports each person's care.
Continuum of Care
For higher-acuity needs, Harborview offers inpatient psychiatry for patients requiring intensive stabilization, including those with substance use disorders.
This connection between outpatient, inpatient and emergency services creates a true continuum of care with added support like supported employment and housing services.
