Many areas of Washington State, including Yakima, struggle with a history of discrimination and disinvestment, particularly in American Indian and tribal areas.
Yakima struggles with poor mental and physical health rankings, too, regardless of race. Throughout Yakima County, around 30 percent of 8th graders, 10th graders, and 12th graders have reported poor mental health since 2021. These rates saw a jump to nearly fifty percent during the pandemic, but otherwise have remained quite high at around 30 percent of youth since 2006.
Since 2014, rates of suicide and suicide attempts have risen, with dramatic rises in 2022 for Yakima and the whole of Washington state.
A big part of limited access to care is the severe housing cost burden in Yakima, particularly among renters. This means access to care can be outside of the budget, or transportation costs associated with in-person care might be too extreme.

Starting Treatment with Skycloud
Our licensed therapists and psychiatrists in Washington can help you clear your mind with our outpatient psychotherapy programs or outpatient MAT for opioid addiction.
Our outpatient programs involve daily treatment at our facility, so that you can continue to reside at home while you are in recovery for a mental health disorder or co-occurring mental health and substance abuse.
Choosing to get help means choosing to change your relationship with your mental health. Our outpatient programs involve daily treatment, including things like therapy, group sessions, or counseling.
A big part of the appeal of outpatient treatment is that you get to continue to live at home:
- If you are a single parent trying to take care of children, you can do so while still getting help
- If you are taking care of an elderly or sick family member you can get the mental health treatment you need while still providing for them
- If you are trying to complete your academic requirements or continue to work, you can do that with our team
We focus on providing a holistic, individualized program with flexible services so that you never have to choose between your personal or professional applications and getting the help you really need.
What’s more, with Skycloud, we work with many insurance providers to make your access more affordable, applying benefits and keeping costs lower through outpatient care and virtual services.
Choosing Modalities
At Skycloud, we believe in comprehensive intake assessments so that each of our clients can receive the personalized treatment plan that works best for them, including the right type of therapy.
For some conditions like depression, symptoms might be brought about by specific events in your life, so the right type of therapy can provide skills for identifying the triggers or causes and managing the symptoms so that they don’t have as strong an impact on your daily function. Our team might encourage you to participate in individual and group cognitive behavioral therapy sessions to learn and practice those coping skills.
For other conditions like bipolar disorder, you might not find a cure, so your treatment will focus on things like dialectical behavioral therapy, where you can learn to change your perspective or relationship to your mental health in a way that uses positive coping mechanisms.
Practice and Work
For many clients, the type of program they use builds coping skills, explores things like emotional regulation, and builds distress tolerance.
Another part of the appeal of our flexible outpatient programs is the ability to practice those skills in real time. Whenever you leave your sessions or our treatment center, you can complete your follow-up assignments or homework at home, test out your coping skills with your family or at work, and then report back during your next session.
We aim to support you as you transition through a program designed to fit your circumstances and your needs.
Conditions like depression might require a 3-month cognitive behavioral therapy program, whereas more serious conditions might require longer programs. With our comprehensive intake assessments, we can help determine the duration and type of modalities that will give you the best chance of success.
What to Expect with Skycloud
When you first reach out to our team, we will set up your first mental health appointment within one week. During that initial appointment, you will undergo your assessment.
This intake assessment is a standard part of any mental health treatment program, and it helps our team better understand you, where you are in terms of your mental and physical health, what your family history might be, and what treatment might be best.
We will work hard to develop a personalized program right away that includes a combination of individual, group, and family therapy as well as medication where appropriate.
We will review this plan with you so you know what to expect.
If you are participating in our in-person services, you’ll get support beforehand so you know what to expect, what you might need to bring with you if anything, to your appointments, and how to prepare.
If you are participating in our virtual services, you’ll get the same type of support, specifically with guidelines on the technology that’s used and how you can prepare yourself and your personal space for each of your sessions.
