In the new Mental Health Center, which opened in the First Medical Association of Lviv at 25 Mazepy Street, combatants and their relatives can receive free consultations from psychologists and psychotherapists. This became possible thanks to the fact that the First TMO signed a corresponding package of services with the Ministry of Veterans of Ukraine.
In general, the Center for Mental Health, which was created within the UNBROKEN ecosystem, will help everyone who needs it. Services under the referral of a family doctor are free, without a referral – paid, but the cost of consultations will be much lower than in private institutions.
The Center already employs 8 specialists: psychiatrists, psychotherapists, a psychologist and a cognitive-behavioral therapist. More information about the Mental Health Center is available at the link.
In general, the City Hall of Lviv is working to ensure that mental health centers are in every city polyclinic. The first such center was opened last year in the consulting polyclinic at the Saint Nicholas Hospital (city children’s hospital) on Orlyka Street. Recently, such centers became operational at the 5th City Hospital on Chuprinka Street and at the 5th City Polyclinic at 32 Vyhovsky Street.
“Our goal is to make psychological help available in every medical facility in the city. That is why we are currently building a system of mental health centers to help everyone who needs it,” emphasizes Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadovy.
In Lviv, they are working every day to create the UNBROKEN National Rehabilitation Center to treat, rehabilitate and provide prosthetics for Ukrainians in Ukraine. Thanks to the support of donors, a prosthetics workshop has already been opened and the first bionic prostheses have been installed.
By the way, military personnel and their relatives also receive free psychological counseling at the Lviv Center for the Provision of Services to Combatants, located at 41 Pekarska Street. Appointment for consultation by phone: 032 254 61 16; 067 962 83 25.
