At Catawba County Mental Health, we meet people where they are—with evidence-based treatment, genuine compassion, and a commitment to restoring dignity one person at a time.
Our team provides a full spectrum of mental health services, from crisis intervention to long-term therapeutic support, ensuring each person receives care that fits their unique needs.
One-on-one sessions with licensed clinicians using evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care.
Healing happens in connection. Our group and family sessions build support networks and strengthen relationships.
Medication management and psychiatric evaluation by experienced providers working in coordination with your therapy team.
Specialized care for young people, addressing anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges, and developmental concerns with age-appropriate techniques.
Immediate support when you need it most. Our crisis team is available to help stabilize and guide you through urgent mental health situations.
Coordinated care that connects you with housing, employment, and community resources—because mental health extends beyond the therapy room.
For over five decades, Catawba County Mental Health has stood as a pillar of support for the Newton community and surrounding areas. Founded on the belief that mental health care is a fundamental right—not a privilege—we have grown from a small clinic into a comprehensive behavioral health center.
Our doors are open to adults, children, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use disorders, and more. We understand that seeking help requires courage, and we honor that courage by meeting every person with respect, confidentiality, and genuine compassion.
We accept Medicare, most major insurance plans, and offer sliding scale fees to ensure that cost is never a barrier to the care you deserve.

Call us at (828) 465-0768 or visit our Newton office. A friendly intake coordinator will listen and guide your next steps.
A thorough, compassionate evaluation helps us understand your full story—your strengths, challenges, and the goals you want to work toward.
Together, we build a personalized plan that may include therapy, medication management, group sessions, and community support resources.
