Certified Community Behavioral Health Center - CCBHC


In October of 2019, Quest Counseling & Consulting Inc. became Washoe County’s first Nevada Certified Community Behavioral Health Center (CCBHC).

This designation has allowed us to broaden our efforts to improve the behavioral health of our citizens, particularly vulnerable populations with the most complex needs, by expanding access to care and offering quality behavioral health services to the Northern Nevada community.


What Is A CCBHC

A CCBHC is a Certified Community Behavioral Health Center. CCBHC’s provide a range of behavioral health services aimed at providing timely access to mental health and substance use services to any individual in need regardless of their ability to pay.

Being one of the only CCBHCs in Washoe County allows Quest to provide stability, access, and treatment to Medicaid recipients who may not otherwise be able to access quality services.
