Outpatient Mental Health Centers

Rockville - 751 Twinbrook Parkway, 1st Floor, Rockville, MD 20851 / Phone: 301-467-8959 (referral ONLY)
For referral information please contact the centers directly at the number listed above. Threshold Services accepts Montgomery County residents with Medical Assistance (MA or Medicaid), Medicare and Medicaid, or PAC. Uninsured patients are reviewed on a case by case basis. Threshold Services is not paneled with any private insurance so we will need to confirm that any private insurance allows out of network providers. Threshold Services may ask for proof of income to determine ability to pay deductibles and/or co-payments.
The OMHC Director may need to approve private pay or private insured referrals before an intake appointment is scheduled.
The referral process occurs in two steps. Your first meeting is with a therapist. This session takes about 1.5 hours and you have some paperwork to complete. The second session is with a psychiatrist. This session takes about 30 minutes. After these sessions you will be assigned to a psychiatrist and/or therapist for ongoing treatment that you request or was recommended during the intake process.
Please note: the Silver Spring Mental Health Center offers Bi-lingual services, Spanish and English.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires that Threshold Services provide the following Notice of Privacy Practices document for your review prior to obtaining our services. REVIEW NOW.
