About North Oklahoma Cnty MH Center Inc DBA Northcare
Northcare — formally North Oklahoma County Mental Health Center Inc — operates at 2617 General Pershing Boulevard in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, providing medical detox and structured outpatient treatment to residents of the Oklahoma City metro. The facility is certified by the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse and holds Certified Community Behavioral Health Agency (CCBHC) status, placing it among a select group of programs held to federal standards for integrated behavioral health care. For individuals in acute withdrawal or those managing substance abuse alongside serious mental health conditions, Northcare’s scope extends well beyond a standard outpatient clinic.
Northcare’s confirmed levels of care include Medical Detox, an Outpatient Program (OP), and an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). Medical detox positions the facility to manage withdrawal under clinical supervision before patients step down into less intensive outpatient services. The IOP tier provides a structured, higher-frequency treatment schedule for those who require more support than standard outpatient sessions but do not need round-the-clock residential placement.
The facility’s treatment approach is grounded in clinical practices and integrated care — a model that addresses substance use and mental health conditions simultaneously rather than in isolation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the confirmed therapeutic methods in use. Northcare also maintains an on-site pharmacy and a UA collections department, infrastructure that supports medically supervised treatment and ongoing monitoring throughout a patient’s program.
Northcare serves men, women, adults, adolescents, families, and individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. The conditions treated span substance abuse and addiction, co-occurring disorders and dual diagnosis, trauma and PTSD, severe mental illness, and chronic illness. Payment options include Medicaid, Medicare, TRICARE, private insurance, state insurance, self-pay, and financial assistance — and the facility’s stated policy is that no one will be denied services due to inability to pay, with a sliding fee schedule based on family size and income.
