About our Values
Our Values reflect the behaviors that our employees determined to be essential to providing best in class services. A company-wide nomination process led to the formation of our Values Committee, fifteen people across three of our hospitals, who led the process to create SUN’s values. Our four values are at the core of what we do. Each value reflects behaviors that we hold ourselves to on behalf of our patients, their loved ones as well as each other.
Services
Children

But there is hope. At SUN, our experienced and encouraging team will identify your child’s needs and provide effective treatment options to set your family on a path to healing. READ MORE
Adolescent Programs
A staggering 20 percent of youth ages 13-18 live with a mental health condition, and 50 percent of all lifetime cases of mental illness begin by age 14. As one of the country’s most comprehensive behavioral health organizations, SUN works to make life better and create positive outcomes for families dealing with child and adolescent mental health issues. Our psychiatrists, master’s level therapists and nurses are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to help uncover complex emotional issues and offer the best care in the least restrictive way possible.

Adult Mood & Anxiety
Doctors agree that normal levels of anxiety and stress are common, two things we all deal with regularly. Richard Maddock, M.D. writes for UC Davis Health that they can be appropriate responses to certain situations, particularly those that involve risk and uncertainty.
Where anxiety becomes something more and can become an anxiety disorder, is when it begins to crowd out other normal behaviors, thought patterns, and emotions. Reacting normally, even with anxiety or stress, means you can move past the negative side effects of feeling them. Anxiety disorders are when you can’t stop worrying or thinking about something that scared you, or even something that could happen. The disorder is when the anxiety never goes away.
Adult Outpatient
SUN Behavioral in Erlanger, Kentucky provides various mental health treatment programs. Our outpatient program helps patients who may be transitioning from inpatient care. It also benefits those who need more intensive treatment than that offered by traditional outpatient programs. The outpatient care center at our Kentucky location provides clinical mental health services to those in need.
Co-Occurring and Substance Use Disorders
The human body is a beautiful but complicated system. When you add the brain to the mix, the complication increases exponentially. For this reason, people handle their stress and problems in different ways. Western medicine has moved away from looking at each body system as separate and realizes that each person is the combined total of their experiences, thoughts, and behaviors. The complex nature of the mind-body inner workings makes finding a treatment center that diagnoses co-occurring disorders so important.
Adult Mental Health Services
Millions of Americans suffer from depression, anxiety, panic attacks and other conditions. It can be a lonely, confusing and emotional experience. But you are not alone. If you or someone you love is struggling, we can help. At SUN, we’ve created a caring, healing environment and will be there for every step of your journey to recovery.
Telehealth Services
Have you been feeling lonely, chaotic, or like you’re drowning? Are you feeling confused or temperamental during the coronavirus pandemic? Clients described these feelings when trying to explain how events around the world have left them feeling lately.
When we are asked to stay at home as much as possible, we have a duty to our community to avoid others. But, it is essential that we don’t neglect our health, physical or mental.
