About

About Region 8 Mental Health Services Residential Treatment Center

Region 8 Mental Health Services Residential Treatment Center is the residential substance use arm of Region 8 Mental Health Services, a public behavioral healthcare provider that has served central Mississippi since 1975. Located on Simpson Highway 13 in Mendenhall, the residential program sits within a parent organization that covers a five-county service area with a full range of behavioral health, alcohol and drug, intellectual and developmental disability, and outpatient services.

The SAMHSA record for this site documents a comprehensive continuum of care: medical detox for supervised withdrawal management, residential treatment for stabilization and intensive recovery work, and outpatient programming for ongoing care after discharge. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the documented evidence-based modality, delivered in both individual and group formats. The center serves adults navigating substance use, alcohol use disorder, and co-occurring mental health conditions including trauma and PTSD.

Region 8’s approach is anchored in personalized care planning. As the parent organization frames it, the team “works with each person to create a unique blueprint for rehabilitation that involves proven therapeutic technologies and comprehensive behavioral health services.” The Mendenhall residential facility extends this approach into a residential setting, where clients can complete intensive recovery work in a structured environment before stepping back into community-based outpatient care through Region 8’s network of locations.

For populations of focus, the SAMHSA record identifies veterans, court-ordered clients, men, individuals living with HIV/AIDS, and Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing clients as served populations. Payment options include Medicaid and self-pay/cash. Executive Director Dave Van leads the parent organization. For Mississippi residents in Simpson County and the surrounding region, this is a public-agency option that combines residential intensity with the longer-term continuum a regional CMHC can provide.
