About Us

Behavioral health care
built for the North

Alaska Advanced Behavioral Health provides comprehensive mental health and substance use services to residents of Nome and the surrounding Western Alaska region. Our practice is grounded in clinical excellence and a deep respect for the unique challenges of delivering care in one of America's most remote communities.

We understand that behavioral health in the Arctic is not simply about transporting standard protocols north—it requires adaptation, cultural humility, and an understanding of the resilience that defines life above the treeline. Every treatment plan we develop is individualized, trauma-informed, and designed to work within the realities of your life.
