Healthcare Partnership

Integrated Care at Mentally STRONG Clinic

At the Mentally STRONG Clinic in Colorado Springs, we offer a comprehensive mental and behavioral health approach. Our founder, Dr. Cristi Bundukamara, Ed.D, PMHNP, designed the Mentally STRONG Method using cognitive behavioral therapy to help individuals understand their thoughts and emotional patterns for long-term well-being.

However, the journey towards mental health isn’t solely about counseling or cognitive exercises. Often, it requires an integration of medication management. Recognizing this critical aspect, we’ve expanded our services to ensure that your treatment is about understanding your thoughts and feelings and managing any medications necessary for your recovery.

Our partnership with Genoa Healthcare brings you compassionate, personalized medication management. With over 20 years of experience in behavioral health pharmacy services, Genoa offers warm, stigma-free care that aligns with our holistic approach to mental health.
