About Us
Big Bear Behavioral is a growing group practice that offers quality care to our clients. We are composed of over 30 individual practitioners (counselors, case managers, psychiatric nurses, etc) who love our profession! (Meet our Admin Team here)
Our mission is serving our clients with strength based practice for the enrichment of our community and staff. Our Core Values are our "general guidelines" on how to conduct business: We strive to make processes user-friendly and practical; respect our clients and our staff; always "do the right thing"; and be caring and professional at all times.
Big Bear Behavioral team members like clinicians and case managers come from a variety of disciplines (i.e. marriage and family, mental health counseling, and social work) and have many specialties (sexual therapy, adoption competency, trauma-focused therapy, LGBT, and many more).
