Access to psychiatric and counseling services was recently expanded for people in the Lakes Region with the opening of Tri-County Mental Health Services at Windham Crossing.

Located at Windham Crossing at the corner of routes 302 and 35, the office offers a variety of innovative individual therapies for children, teens, families, adults, and couples, including: adult and child outpatient counseling, relationship counseling, and employee assistance programs for large and small businesses.

Richard Chammings will be the site leader. Chammings has more than 20 years of experience working in the mental health field including inpatient, outpatient, residential and crisis settings. “We believe in removing barriers to care for people looking for help. A convenient location and flexible hours is one small part of expanding access,” said Rich.
